Single people, please step forward! It's painful.
As you approach your 30s, a common sentiment you hear is, "Weddings are fun, but I really dislike the bouquet toss."
In your early 20s, with fewer married people, the bouquet toss was an exciting event filled with cheer.
However, once you reach your late 20s or early 30s, when fewer singles are present, it can feel like a harsh reminder of your single status being showcased in front of everyone....
Many people share these feelings.
Therefore, especially at weddings for the around-30 generation, it's popular to have participatory events that welcome everyone, regardless of marital status, in place of the bouquet toss.*
"The person who catches it will be the next bride," is a romantic tradition of the bouquet toss, but
new-age performances where both men and women can mix and enjoy are also wonderful ♡
