    Make an Exit: Creative Sendoff Ideas for Your Wedding

    By Carly Totten, Lover.ly

    It's a known fact: you will spend your reception toasting, eating, and dancing the night away with your closest friends and family. You will have a blast, but the downside is it does have to end. However, don't let your reception end with a final dance. Instead, consider slipping into a shorter dress for your getaway and plan for guests to cheer you on during a sendoff as you leave as husband and wife. Time and time again, couples say it's one of they're favorite moments. If your reception comes to a close during the day, plan for your guests to let a sea of balloons go, in your wedding colors perhaps, as you pass by or shower you in confetti (an easy DIY). On the other hand, if your band hits the final note under the stars, jump in on one of the latest trends and put on a fireworks show. We've rounded up our top five creative sendoff ideas, and there's more inspiration waiting for you on Lover.ly.

      End your reception with fireworks (literally!). Just be sure to have this idea approved by your reception venue, and consider hiring pros to set them off. Another similar option? Sparklers!
