Not only is throwing rice "old news" when it come to sending off the bride and groom, but it's unsafe. Don't you remember  the story of Juliette Gordon Low?  A grain of rice thrown at her 1886 wedding became lodged in Juliette's ear. When it was removed, her ear drum was punctured and became infected, causing her to become completely deaf in that ear. Her hearing was severely limited for the rest of her life.
Today's bride and groom are toasted with  birdseed, balloons, bubbles, the ringing of bells or the releasing of doves to shower the couple with good wishes.

Why do we throw rice at wedding?  It was believed that rice and wheat were symbols of fertility and prosperity. Therefore, wedding guests would throw them at newly married couples to bring them good luck and many children.   How about birdseed?
