A wedding has many symbolic moments to deliver positive and inspiring messages. Rings as a symbol of binding the vows, flowers as a symbol of the beautiful journey and sometimes balloon as to signify how the two couple is about to free themselves from the past and begin a new exciting venture. However, balloon release can be quite controversial these days as it can harm the environment especially if the balloons land in the sea. And also about the trash of its residue that the couples can’t know where to find.

Besides this reason, being non-mainstream couple could excuse yourself to try other bits to sign such thing. So what alternatives do you have?


Bubbles

As much as bubbles will remind you of your childhood time and recall how fun it was to blow bubbles and see them fly afloat to the sky, bubbles can be the representation of the past as well. Remember the feeling when you release soap bubbles and watch them disappear? It could be a sign of you releasing all baggage before your wedding and letting go those things. Start anew.


Confetti of Petals or Flower Seeds

Differently, confetti of petals or flower seeds can interpret festive celebration. Confetti itself is usually used for parties, to pop up some colors in the room, to alarm that the party just gets started. Well, instead of using papers or glitters, why not using something organic like petals or flower seeds? You can create it yourself, just collect petals or your favorite flower seeds and learn how to make a few confettis. Then your work is done without any regrets to harm the environment.
