Lavender Wedding Rice Eco-Chic Wedding Favor


I have mentioned before how much I like the eco-friendly favors from Beaucoup. This is another of my favorites, Lavender Wedding Rice, meant to replace regular rice to throw at the bride and groom at the end of the wedding.

Throwing things at a newly wed couple is intended to symbolize good luck, fertility and abundance. This bag contains 100% pure lavender buds which are completely biodegradable. It won't harm birds or the environment. Guests can be given small packets of the lavender buds to throw at the bride and groom, and when everyone leaves the ceremony, they will be walking over the fragrant lavender. Another terrific eco-friendly idea from Beaucoup.
