They do exist!

I'm going to a wedding in Sept. and was browsing their wedding website. 

And then I came upon this:

Instead of bubbles or balloons we have chosen to have a ribbon wand exit! We ask that everyone grab a ribbon wand and stand outside and wave them as the bride and groom come out!

Yes, I'll bring my camera.

That is so 2006.

This is the second wedding I've heard of recently that is planning on ribbon wands. 

Everything 'old' is new again, eh?

Considering DB still has the BM dress that I almost selected in 2006, I have a feeling the ribbon wands never really went away. 

I hope there's a dollar dance too!

I saw this on Four Weddings the other night.  They even had bells on them to really look like a cat toy.

i love that  this is the alternative, and that bubbles or balloons are probably too cliche.

eh, weddings are a beebee event in general IMO.

i would have much preferred everyone to have their hands up, and to do a high five all the way down.

So jealous!!!  I want a ribbon wand!!  My cat would love it, too.

Hm. The thing is, if it's something you want, and you think it works for your crowd, I say who cares if a million other people did it, or if it's so 1994.  But then, I don't know if that's the thinking or if the thinking is "Whoa.  Ribbon wand.  Who knew?" 

We're doing long sparklers.  Is it 'done'?  Cliche?  Everyone else is doing it too? 

I dunno, I dun-care. I likey the sparklery.
