Sending mail to multiple Users in Laravel 5.2

below is my code to send a mail to multiple users.

 $email_id =  User::select('email_id')->get()->pluck('email_id');

     Mail::send('mail', [], function($message) use ($email_id)
        {
            $message->to($email_id)->subject('Welcome!!!');
        });

I m getting the values in $email_id as

 ["[email protected]","[email protected]","[email protected]"]

With this I get error of

Illegal Offset Type.

But when I write explicitly as 

$email_id = ["[email protected]","[email protected]","[email protected]"];

then I am able to send mail to multiple users.

Why is it not working for 

$email_id=  User::select('email_id')->get()->pluck('email_id');

and is working fine for 

$email_id = ["[email protected]","[email protected]","[email protected]"];

Any help would be grateful.

Simply append

->toArray()

function to the code.

$email_id=  User::select('email_id')->get()->pluck('email_id')->toArray();

Note: sending mails this way may create bottleneck on the server and eventually force all mails to be delivered to spam/junk folder (if it ever gets delivered). To avoid this, write a function that will queue all mails. Refer to https://laravel.com/docs/5.1/mail#queueing-mail for better clarification.

If we want to send only one email at a time. then we can use this code

   $email_id = User::select('email_id')->get()->pluck('email_id'); 
     Mail::send('test', array('user' => $email_id) , function ($message) { 
     $message->from('[email protected]'), 'From Example Name'); 
     $message->to('[email protected]')->subject('Welcome!!!'); 
})

If we want to send an email to multiple users , then we can use this code 

$email_id = User::select('email')->get()->pluck('email')->toArray(); 
Mail::send('test', array('user' => $email_id) , function ($message) use 
($email_id) { $message->from('[email protected]'), 'From Example Name');
 $message->to($email_id)->subject('Welcome!!!'); 
});
