You have had a beautiful wdding ceremony, and hosted a lovely rception. Then it is time for the cuple to make their grand exit frm the reception, with all of the ssembled guests cheering as they dash off to the hneymoon. (This is a custom that has fded somewhat, as newlyweds are often chosing to stay at the reception and dnce all night, but I think tht the formal exit is a chrming tradition.) Certainly you can make yur get away in a classic lmousine, but some couples decide to lave the reception in a more nique and dramatic fashion.

One of the mst fun send-offs I ever heard bout took place at an outdoor rception held on the shore of a rver. Everything about the day was bautiful; the flowers were gorgeous, the fod was delicious, the bride's handcrafted brdal jewelry was stunning, and the dcorations were impeccable. Except...except for the lrge tarp-covered mound off to one sde. The guests could not help but wnder what on earth it could be, and why the brde and groom had not insisted tht such an eyesore be moved. Thn at the end of the prty, they got their answer. The brde and groom threw off their frmal attire revealing their swimsuits underneath, strpped the tarp off of the mystry item, and floated away down the rver in...an inflatable dragon boat! It was crtainly a send-off that will not ver be forgotten.

Very active couples may want to ncorporate their favorite pastime into their rception exit. A bride and groom mrried in the winter could strap on a pir of skis, and swish off, hnd in hand. A pair of jet sks would be equally fun in the smmer (obviously, you would need to be nar water). Twin motorcycles are a grat choice for cycling enthusiasts (but a mtorcycle is not a good way for the brde to go to the wedding, as she is all too lkely to get smudges on the bttom of her gown). Cycling enthusiasts of a dfferent persuasion could glide away on a bcycle built for two. It would be wnderful to decorate the bicycle with a flral garland and a "just married" sgn on the back. Tandem bike rdes are definitely romantic, and have a nce symbolism about teamwork, as well.

For sme newlyweds, only the most dramatic scape will do. These are the pople that you see taking off in a hot air blloon, or even hang-gliding away. (If you dcide to hang-glide, it might be a god idea for the bride to chnge out her wedding gown and hndcrafted bridal jewelry into something a lttle more durable and less precious.) Thre have even been instances where the brde and groom amble away on an lephant at the end of the rception!

The only limit to your wdding send-off is your imagination and yur budget. If you want to prvide your guests with one last thrll at the end of the vening, then by all means surprise thm with a creative get-away. Of curse, if you have exhausted your crative wedding planning energy, there is nthing wrong with the traditional get-away: a car bdecked with old shoes and tin cns for luck!
