The days of throwing rice and herbs at the happy couple as they leave is a thing of the past. The tradition has evolved into bigger and brighter ideas. With Pinterest worthy and extravagant sendoffs floating around the internet, here are a few ideas to assist you in finding the perfect sendoff to fit your personality.
Sparkler exits at the end of the wedding night have become the new “it” thing. As the newly married couple walks through the tunnel of sparkle, photographers snap a few “lit” pics to show off the perfect ending to the perfect wedding day.

A fun twist to the sendoff is renting a vintage car for the getaway vehicle. Ride into your new life as a married couple in style!

To create a sentimental aspect to the end of the evening, use a vintage car with special meaning. A few Ma Maison brides have used their father’s cherished vehicles (some even were a surprise!) as their getaway car.

Thinking about your likes and dislikes, cars may not be your speed. A perk of Ma Maison being on 23 acres of the Hill Country is, we have space for a helicopter. You read that right, a helicopter. Instead of heading out in a car, fly out!

For a lasting impression on your guests, hire a pyrotechnic team to set up gerbs for your getaway car to drive past. You may be asking, what is a “gerb”? A grab is a firework that produces a fountain of sparks.

If objects that can light someone’s hair on fire isn’t your forte, maybe opt for a less showy option. Glow sticks may be your perfect solution. They still give off light without creating a messy cleanup. Not to mention the pictures can turn out very cool!

Streamers are the new confetti. However, many venues like Ma Maison prohibit the use of them because even three months after the wedding, you still find pieces in places they shouldn’t be! The pop out streamers from Genevieve and Connor’s wedding were perfect, no mess to clean up and a fun way to send the happy couple out!

A balloon release, another fun alternative for a sendoff, creates memorable moments and artistic photos. With colorful balloons in hand, have the bride and groom walk down the line of people as guests release the balloons. If the bride and groom want to be part of the release, have the bride release a white balloon and the groom, a black balloon.
