It was just gorgeous.

As the bride & groom come running out everyone releases the streamers (at the right time). There is no clean up because people throw them away in the trash. It looks VERY cool to see also.

Also - clean up is a factor. It started out because birds ate the rice and got sick but there are so many reasons they don't like thrown stuff now... At my niece's wedding they got the soap bubbles - they looked so cool walking through this halo of bubbles.

I know it's awesome, I once saw it at a wedding before I learned better. Balloons can travel a long way and wind up in rivers and lakes and the ocean too. Fish and water birds think they are getting a marvelous treat and then choke to death on them. Live & let live... the flower petals sound so much nicer and don't hurt anything except the sweeper's back....

Bet it costed a lot but it was beautiful and it saves wrapping all those little bags of birdseed.Dollar tree stores carry those little bottles so for my son's wedding I dressed them up since they were plain white with clear irredescent wrap like you'd use on a basket and tied a tiny bow on it to bunch it up at the top. There are 10-12 in a box usually.A friend released two white doves after her wedding.

They used white ones and also the color of the attendants gowns, predominantly white. If you bought balloons in bulkand the curling ribbon in a large roll, from a party store, you could probably rent a helium tank to fill them yourselves, which would be cheaper than buying them already filled. It was a beautiful sight as the balloons soared to the skies.
