The custom of throwing things over the bride and groom has been a tradition throughout history. Examples of some of the items thrown have been wheat, corn, sugar plums, and rice, among many others. Now people are throwing rose petals, confetti ribbons, and streamers on the couple's big day. This gives the wedding a more colorful and festive feeling to it.
Throwing streamers can send the bride and groom off in style to their honeymoon, and new life together. All the beautiful colorful streamers flying through the sky and falling around the bride and groom, will make a spectacular wedding photo, indeed.
Admittedly, wedding streamers can make a mess, but there are now some that pop out from a capsule, and remain attached to it. They pop out slowly for great wedding photos. You just put a finger through the capsule‘s loop, turn it up in your hand, remove the lid and throw it toward the bride and groom. The streamers shoot in every direction to create an array of beautiful colors everywhere. The capsule stays in your hand, so there is no messy or hard clean up. .
Streamers are a great alternative to rice or even confetti throwing, because they are not confetti. There is no confetti stuck all over the bride and groom to clean up either. Better yet, these can-loaded types of streamers are accepted by most churches, venues, and reception sites, since there is no messy clean up.
There are many different kinds of wedding streamers available today. There are fabric streamers which are made from any light and airy material. These fabric streamers will add a beautiful touch to any ceremony, whether as decorations or for tossing.
There are fringe streamers, which are made from yards of fringe. They can be the same length or different lengths to create a more draped appearance.
Finally, there are the traditional crepe paper streamers, this is the kind that is normally used for parties and wedding celebrations.
No matter what kind of streamers you choose, they will make any wedding ceremony extraordinary. They will give your wedding a festive air with a colorful theme. Have a great wedding day.
