Ringing bells instead of throwing seed?

Ringing bells instead of throwing seed?

I've been looking for something to give my guests that doesn't require clean up for after the ceremony.

I've seen the tiny bells in ads & in craft stores - I also saw a sleigh bell on a pre-printed card. Has anyone used them or is planning on using them? (I'm weary about using bubbles b/c if someone spills the soap, it could be a slipping hazard).

Any feedback would be appreciated - thanks!

My cousin used bells at her wedding. There were about 4 or 5 tiny bells in a little tulle sack with a ribbon around it. They actually were to tiny though, you hardly heard anything. I would recommend bigger bells.

You could have a flower girl or ring bearer, or even an adult hand them out to the guest from a little basket, as they exit the church after the receiving line.

You have a good point about slipping on the bubbles.

bells from macys? in the bridal dept? how much did she spend on them?

You know your guests - if the extra time would be valuable to you or your guests, then send them early!

Any and all feedback would be very appreciated!

Thanks for letting me know - I was looking at buying the same ones! I thought about tying 2 together but it didn't make much of a difference. (I found them at Party City just w/o the ribbon).

Thanks for letting me know!

I confronted my mother-in-law to be...confronted my fiance and said "small" or nothing....after much bickering and arguing...we're having a fairly small brunch at the Three Village Inn..they do almost everything for you....honestly if they didn't...I'd just elope...if you all let this five hour event make you sick...you won't have the strength to survive the first battle over whose house you are going to spend the holidays at.....Take your vitamins......and good luck...JessicaE
