I bought party-sized bubble makers to replace confetti and rice, as we were gettting married in a public garden (which turned into my parent's garden when it rained, oh dear.)

The bubble makers were given to guests as they arrived, and were a hit with young and old alike.

Added bonus - bubbles in wedding photography look super-sweet.

Where did you get them? Were they the standard kiddie-bubbles or something else?

Thx! Adam

This was a hunt and a half. We visited two dollar shops (bargain basement places), but they were selling bubble makers in mini-champagne bottles for one dollar each. Add this up over 120 guests, and you get an expensive deal!

Then my husband found little fun-sized bubble makers at a stall in Castle Hill, Sydney (Australia). I presume they exist elsewhere. Another friend found some in Bowral, NSW, (Australia as well).

These came in packs and sold for about $3 each pack.

I would suggest first going to your local bargain store, five-and-dime, whatever they are called. If they don't have them, ask them whether they have come across any in their travels. Usually places which buy loads of "stuff" on consignment may know who else stocks them if they don't.

Hope this helps
