What Can I Use to Hold the Bubble Containers for the Guests at My Wedding?
Bubbles are becoming a common staple at wedding ceremonies. The bubbles are used to make way for the bride as she proceeds down the aisle. They are also used to mark the conclusion of the wedding ceremony. Bubble containers are an economical and mess-free way to celebrate the wedding ceremony in lieu of throwing rice or rose petals.

Ribbon
-
A ribbon is a simple yet classically pretty way to hold a bubble container for the wedding ceremony guests until they are ready to use it. Use ribbons that complement the wedding color palette to help tie the decor together and add small splashes of color to the ceremony venue. Tie the ribbons to the bubbles and attach the ends to the chairs of the wedding guests. This way the bubbles are clearly visible and accessible during the ceremony.
Paper Cones
-
Fold cones out of decorative paper or stationery to create holding devices for the wedding bubble containers. Hang the cones from the corners of the guest chairs. If guests are seated in pews, hang a cone at the end of each pew with enough containers of bubbles for all the guests in the row. Place the bubbles into the cone or fill the cones with rose petals first, to act as a cushion for the containers, and place the bubbles on top of the petals inside the cone.

Programs
-
Attach the bubbles to the wedding programs using ribbons, string or yarn. This allows you to keep everything guests need for the ceremony together and in one place. It also helps to prevent guests from forgetting about the bubbles or failing to notice them. Include a note in the program as to the purpose of the bubbles, such as "use the bubbles to celebrate the first kiss of the husband and wife," for added clarity.
Balloons
-
Tie the bubble container to the end of a long ribbon attached to a balloon filled with helium. The bubbles act as a weight for the balloons to keep them in place. Place the balloons and bubbles between every guest chair at the ceremony. At the conclusion of the ceremony, guests can untie the bubbles, releasing the balloons into the sky and access the bubbles. The conclusion of the ceremony is then marked not only by a cascading of bubbles but a large balloon release as well.
