Lavender Wedding Toss Wand: A Fragrant Send-Off Instead of Rice
Save
Forget the rice. Our Lavender Wedding Toss Wands send the happy couple off in a shower of lavender. Guests wave or toss them as the newlyweds make their exit, the air fills with a soft, classic lavender scent and the photos turn out beautifully. We will admit some bias here: we think every big day could use a little more lavender.
Small or Large?
The wands come in two sizes. Check the product page for the current details on each. As a rule of thumb, the small size is easy to hand out in big numbers and tucks neatly into a place setting, while the large size makes more of a statement in photos and in a centerpiece. See the product page for current sizes and availability.
How many to order
Start with your guest count and add a handful of extras. Someone always drops one, a few guests will want two, and the photographer may want one for detail shots. Extras also cover the bridal party, who tend to be at the front of the send-off line.
Staging the send-off
- Put them where people will be. A basket or crate at the exit, with a small sign, beats wands left on tables across the room.
- Assign a helper. A coordinator, usher or cousin who hands them out a few minutes early keeps things smooth.
- Brief the guests. A quick announcement of wave or toss, and when, gets everyone moving at once, which is what makes the photos.
- Check with your venue. Some venues have rules about what can be tossed, especially indoors. A quick question during planning saves a surprise on the day.
More than a send-off
| Use | How |
|---|---|
| Table decor | Gathered in a jar or laid across place settings at the reception |
| Guest favor | A fragrant keepsake guests take home after the celebration |
| Bridal showers | A pretty touch for games, gifts and the welcome table |
| Vow renewals | A second send-off, years later |
Before the big day
Store the wands somewhere cool, dry and out of direct sun until the wedding. Sunlight fades lavender's color and heat dulls its scent, so a closet beats a sunny garage. Keep them in their packaging and away from moisture.
Frequently asked questions
Can we use them indoors?
They work for indoor send-offs, too, but ask your venue first, since rules on tossed items vary.
Are they only for weddings?
Not at all. Bridal showers, vow renewals, anniversary parties and garden-themed celebrations all suit them.
