Rice Isn't Fluffy
I saw the picture of Marlin and me exiting the church and people throwing rice at us and I remembered! Rice thrown at you hurts! In the picture, I'm ducking my head and trying to lean so that the pelting rice would hit me in less vulnerable places than my face and ears. It hurt. And I got rice in my mouth! I wanted to spit it out but how does a bride spit delicately? UGH! I had no idea how much that rice hurt until it happened to me.

Oh that is funny (not intending to laugh at your pain however)!! Nowadays, as you know, rice is not allowed on many properties because of what it can do to the birds who eat it (expanding in their tiny stomachs). Instead, the popular thing now is to blow bubbles... or if you must throw somthing, birdseed is acceptable.
