In a twist on the traditional throwing of the bouquet, a couple hired a small aeroplane to fly past their guests at Montioni park in Suvereto, near Livorno in western Tuscany, and drop the bride’s bouquet to a line of women standing below, according to a report in Corriere della Sera.
But as the plane flew over the crowd on Saturday, the flowers were sucked back into the engine, causing it to catch fire and explode.
The idea of throwing the bouquet off an airplane is good but I suppose they didn’t think of the mishaps they could’ve gotten into. Thank goodness nobody died during this incident but I read that the one of the passengers was seriously injured when the plane crashed.
A good, safe, creative idea for bouquet throwing is maybe a game of Trip to Jerusalem or “How Well do You Know The Bride” — The single lady who gets the most number of answers correct gets the bouquet. These ideas are much safer methinks!
