Miss Capitol Hill Wedding Recap - The Getaway
Because we were staying at the same Inn where we were having our reception, we weren't going to have an end-of-evening getaway, but I love the idea of getaways so we had one from the church to the reception.
I have to say that I LOVED LOVED LOVED our streamer throws that we used for our grand exit. They were so much fun for us and for our guests. All the testing I did trying to decide between paper vs. mylar, colored vs. monochome, and Favors You Keep vs. Aerotechnic paid off.
The multicolored, mylar streamerthrows from Aerotechnic were awesome and made for some really great pictures ...just as I had hoped! And the best part: b/c they stay attached to each person's hand it makes clean-up super easy...just gather the plastic pods and throw away.

^Everyone lined up as we got ready to head for the car
^Streamers Away!!!
^And we only had streamer throws for about half the guests...imagine if we had one per person!
^It even looks great in black and white!
^Finally we make it to the car
^But the streamers are still attached!
^O.k. now we are streamer free and ready to take off
^This picture is awesome...it's Husband and I in one of the side mirrors
^And we're off!
To be 100% honest as much fun as our getaway was it didn't go 100% according to plan. I wanted the streamer throws thrown in the church as we walked down the aisle. And despite communicating that over and over again with our coordinator, that message did not get to our guests. Just another example of one of those things that the bride realizes is wrong and no one else does. Although Husband and I did have slightly confused looks on our faces when we walked down the aisle and no one threw anything, in the end...it worked out.
