After a day full of ceremony and celebration, sending off the newlyweds is the last item on the timeline. It’s a fun way to say “sayonara” to your guests and finish the day your way.
So where did this tradition come from? Dating back to Roman times, this was a ritual to wish good luck and fortune upon the couple by throwing grains of rice or wheat. Nowadays, the tradition has modernized to include much more than just grains of rice! If you’re ready to start planning your wedding day exit, then read on for four classy send-offs to consider for a stylish goodbye.
1. Classic Car
This send-off says classy and sophisticated. Rent or borrow a classic car to drive off into the sunset, starting your married life in luxury. This couple opted for a timeless Rolls-Royce to drive off in true vintage style.

2. Rose Petals
If romance is the theme for your wedding, then there is nothing better than rose petals. Roses are a symbol of love and devotion and can be a beautiful way to be showered by your guests. If you’re looking for a way to incorporate this send-off style into your whole day for a cohesive feel, include the same color roses in your bouquet, centerpieces, and boutonniere.
3. Plane
This is the definition of an epic send-off! This is one way to incorporate your personality into your exit. If you have invested the time and money into your education to become a pilot, why not showcase your skills? Board your aircraft and fly into your new married life with your love.
4. Sparklers
Using sparklers is the most popular wedding day send-off and for good reason. It makes for a mesmerizing photo op as the sun sets and involves all your guests! They will love being a part of your final farewell with a sparkler in hand.
This is a great option for couples who don’t want to break the bank. Sparklers are an affordable item to provide one or even two per person for extra glimmer. There’s nothing like running down a tunnel of sparklers to get excited about entering your new married life together.
