Make a Memorable Exit

Memorable ways to leave your reception in style.

  • To leave with pizzazz, hire a professional fireworks display artist to create a thrillingly explosive departure or…

  • …supply guests with fiery sparklers to brilliantly wave you off.

  • Dash to your car through a flurry of sparkly bubbles, after supplying your guests with small bottles of bubbles and blowing wands.

  • Follow a charming country tradition: have guests form two parallel lines and make an arch with their arms. Run through the arch and out the door.

  • For a truly romantic exit, have guests shower you with flower petals.

  • Hire a magician to make you magically disappear. Be sure to graciously say goodbye before the act starts!

  • Go the old-fashioned route: have your best man and ushers tie a few old boots and clean, empty tin cans to the back of your car. Alternatively, exit as they do in some parts of Italy: tie bunches of fresh flowers to your departure vehicle to ensure sweet journeys throughout your married life.

  • Arrange for a chauffeur to pick you up in a limousine or specialty car .

  • One couple had their reception aboard a paddlewheel boat. When it came time to leave, a small motorboat pulled up alongside and the newlyweds made their exit. For a country wedding, try a horse and buggy, a bicycle built for two, a hot-air balloon or a horse or two, to literally ride off into the sunset.
