Going out in style and going out of style are two completely different things. And you don’t want to do the latter. For a truly grand finale, you might want to make your wedding exit just as exciting as your entrance. If you’re looking for a uniquely memorable exit that’s as beautiful as your ceremony, the rice-tossing tradition is not your only option. We’ve rounded up creative and fun ways to honor the age-old celebratory tradition so you can do it in your own, special way.

The advantage of weddings ending at sunset or after dark is that you can use lighting to create a spontaneous and magical setup. And it doesn’t get more romantic than releasing lanterns into the open sky. It not only makes for a pretty scene, but many even consider it to be a good luck ceremony. So make a wish, light it up, and watch as it peppers the sky along with the others.

Have a cool smoke show with hand-held smoke bombs and create some amazingly aesthetic shots from your big day. Ethereal backdrops like this will never go out of style, so go ahead and have a colorful exit into life as Mr. & Mrs. If you’re looking for something subtler yet equally magical, bubbles are the best way to go. Because honestly, who doesn’t love them? Let your guests have fun blowing them into the air, or have some bubble machines to do the job for you and see how fun these simple things make your celebrations.

Sometimes, you want to stick to tradition, and sometimes you want to incorporate a more modern style. The rice toss is a popular tradition followed in many cultures. If you want to stay true to the tradition but want to make it your own, opt for dried lavenders instead, or maybe even some colored rice grains.
