Spring Ceremony Toss
Try tossing fragrant seasonal blooms instead of rice. Remove stems from assorted blossoms (we used cosmos, wax flowers, and chamomile), and have bridesmaids carry baskets of them. Guests can reach in and grab handfuls to toss.

Summer Ceremony Toss
Small cellophane bags filled with sunflower seeds make a great wedding toss. Cut a piece of paper the same width as the bag but 1 inch shorter; decorate using rubber stamps. Slide paper into bag; fill halfway with seeds. Fold top of bag back into a flap. Use a 1/16-inch hole punch to punch two holes through the bag, paper, and flap. Thread a short piece of waxed twine through holes, and tie ends.

Fall Ceremony Toss
Fall leaves make a lovely seasonal ceremony toss, especially when hung on the back of guests' chairs. Fold a rectangular piece of grass paper (available at art-supply stores) in half crosswise, and insert leaves. To close the bags, thread a length of red wax twine through gaps in the weave in each unfolded corner, and knot. Tie ends into bow; hang one on each chair.

Winter Ceremony Toss
Send a winter-wed couple off in a flurry of paper snowflakes. Use white and light-blue paper and a snowflake punch (available at art-supply stores). Place handfuls of snowflakes in small glassine bags. Wrap a narrow ribbon around each; affix with double-stick tape at the top of the front and back (we taped a snowflake in front). Secure the ribbon and bag flap with a monogrammed silver sticker.
