There are so many different and cool ways to dress up and create your pathway down the aisle with rose petals. Flower girls can carry them in their baskets and drop them along the path as they walk down the wedding aisle. When you want to throw flower petals coordinate with your photographer and videographer so that they document this beautiful moment of tossing. At night before going to bed a romantic and fragrant idea is for brides and grooms to put their engagement rings in a plate full of petals, or jasmine flowers.

Do your homework before throwing petals

While throwing petals is a great tradition, when you’re prepping your wedding day at the Church you must first consider some points. You must be careful of the rules in your church or venue. Some places do not allow for petal throwing.

Even though, some venues do not allow the use of flower petals inside the building. It is much better to note whether the venue allows for rose petal throwing during a ceremony. At some places, flower petals may be used outside of buildings only. Most wedding planners know the rules at different venues or churches. Otherwise, you should inquire and know about it in advance. Find out this information ahead of time, so you are not disappointed. And it’s better to be safe than simply just going there and using rose petals.
