connienisaac's Pink wedding

I really wanted to have rice and confetti instead of bubbles,, I just think it's a great tradition and after reading up on it ... I liked it even more!!!




why rice and other grains, such as wheat, have played a prominent role in marriage ceremonies for centuries, is that they are fraught with symbolism of fertility and of prosperity. By throwing rice at the bride and groom at a wedding, guests symbolically wish them a lifetime full of these blessingsPerhaps the most curious use of rice in the wedding ceremony, was its use in some cultures not to unite the happy couple, but to feed the uninvited evil spirits who always attended the ceremony. The rationale behind this practice was to ward off evil, as well-fed evil spirits would bring no harm to the blissful couple.






so I'll be wrapping the rice and confetti together in a light pink circle tulle !!!! with Our names and date!!.....................................................................................................................
