Christian Customs *Flower Shower♡

The flower shower, a ceremony at weddings, is something everyone should know about. Guests shower the couple with flower petals to celebrate their vows of eternal love before God and their new union as a married couple.＊

It is often done on the steps of the chapel where the ceremony is held, and afterward, the flower petals stick to the ground and the dress, making for a visually cute display.♡

Originally, from the rice shower.

The origin of this blessing shower dates back to Roman times. It began with the tradition of showering the newlywed couple with rice to wish for prosperity, symbolizing “may you never go hungry” and “may you be blessed with many children like the grains of rice.”

Here are some diverse blessing showers to introduce to you!♡

Idea 1 *Classic Flower Shower♡

First up is the classic flower shower! Throwing flower petals at the bride and groom symbolizes using the strong fragrance of flowers to ward off evil spirits.＊

Colorful flower petals sticking to the wedding dress are very cute!♡

Idea 2 *Ribbon Shower♡

A very popular trend among modern brides is the ribbon shower, where ribbons are tossed around! It carries a lovely meaning of “tying knots and forming bonds.”＊

When giving out ribbons to guests, using cone-shaped flower cones made of paper is a cute idea!♡

Using ribbons of various weights and materials allows them to float in the air for different durations, which is recommended.＊

Ribbons can be found cheaply at stores like Daiso or craft shops.♡ You don’t need to use high-quality materials like wooden horse ribbons.＊

Idea 3 *Pearl Shower♡

A somewhat rare and latest idea is the pearl shower! It hopes for the bride’s happiness with an act of showering with pearls, which are said to embody the angels of happiness.＊

Pearls (cotton pearls sold at stores like Yuzawaya are fine ♩) wrapped in tulle give the effect of angel wings floating down.＊

Tie ribbons to make it cute.♡ Some brides even make them with colorful beads instead of pearls!♡

Idea 4 *Bubble Shower♡

The bubble shower, where soap bubbles are blown, is also popular. ♡ Kids can join in the fun, creating cute wedding photos.＊
