Your wedding recessional or final send-off at the end of the night are great opportunities to take the sorts of cool, Pinterest-worthy photos you've always wanted. Many couples opt to be showered with confetti, flower petals or traditional rice by their guests as they leave their ceremony or reception venue. However, more often than not these choices end up creating a mess that most venues do not want to deal with. In fact, many venues ban these items entirely or charge an extra fee to deal with the the cleanup. But this doesn't mean you can't have an awesome send-off. We've rounded up eight wedding send-off ideas that are easy, fun and don't require a cleaning crew.
Colourful Smoke Bombs For an outdoor wedding, colourful smoke bombs can give your wedding exit a big impact. Have your guests set them off as you and your new spouse walk down the aisle.
Maracas Having your guests shake matching maracas during your exit is visually appealing and can be a lot of fun.
