When You Should Do the Bouquet Toss
Couples typically toss the bouquet (and/or garter) during the second half of the reception. That’s when most guests are on their feet and letting loose on the dance floor and the meal and toasts are finished. Remember, whoever catches the bouquet symbolically represents who will get married next. So, throwing it at the end of the night is a great way to ‘pass the floral torch’ to the next potential lovebirds.
The timing of the bouquet toss should also be coordinated with the wedding photographer and videographer to ensure that the moment is captured on camera. Looking for a more concrete timeline? If you’re having a four-hour seated reception from 8 p.m. to midnight, aim to toss that bouquet around 10 or 11 p.m. after the cake’s been cut and the party is full of energy.
Additionally, some couples choose to incorporate the bouquet toss into other wedding traditions, such as tossing the garter or doing a joint toss with the groom’s boutonniere. This can add a fun and unique twist to the traditional bouquet toss.
