Wedding Confetti: Should You Supply It for Your Guests?

Planning a wedding is all about the little details—whether it’s the perfect flowers, the ideal playlist, or the dreamiest table settings. One often-overlooked touch that can add real magic to your big day? Confetti.

As a specialist wedding confetti business, we’re often asked: “Should we provide confetti for our guests?” And our answer is always the same—absolutely, yes. Here’s why.

1. Confetti Creates Beautiful, Joyful Moments

There’s something so special about that just-married moment when confetti rains down. It’s a collective celebration—cheers, laughter, colour, and joy all in one go. It’s also one of the most iconic wedding photos you’ll take. When couples provide confetti for their guests, everyone gets to take part, and your photographer won’t miss that perfect shot.

2. Not Everyone Will Bring Their Own

Let’s face it—not all guests come prepared. Some will bring their own confetti, but many won’t think of it. By providing it yourself, you ensure everyone can join in—and you maintain control over the type of confetti used, making sure it’s safe, stylish, and venue-approved.

3. It Can Match Your Theme Perfectly

From soft pastel petals to vibrant tissue confetti, or even metallic eco-glitter, there are endless options to suit your wedding aesthetic. We work closely with couples to create custom blends that match their colours, theme, and overall vibe—whether it’s boho chic, classic elegance, or rustic countryside charm.

4. It’s a Lovely Touch for Your Guests

Confetti packs don’t just serve a practical purpose—they add to the guest experience. Beautifully presented in cones, glassine envelopes, or personalised packets, they double up as a charming part of your décor and even make a thoughtful keepsake.

5. Eco-Friendly Confetti Is Readily Available

Worried about mess or the environment? So are we. That’s why we only offer biodegradable, compostable options—from dried flower petals and herbs to water-soluble paper. Many venues now insist on eco-confetti, and we’re here to help you meet those guidelines without compromising on beauty.

What If the Venue Has Restrictions?

A good question! Some venues do have rules about what’s allowed. We’re used to working with a wide range of locations and can advise on the best confetti options to suit your venue’s policies—whether that means outdoor-friendly petals or alternative options like bubbles or biodegradable streamers.

Final Thoughts

Confetti is more than just a pretty detail—it’s a joyful, inclusive moment that adds fun, romance, and unforgettable memories to your wedding. Providing it for your guests ensures everyone can take part, and you get a picture-perfect celebration that’s uniquely yours.

If you’re looking for bespoke, beautiful, and environmentally conscious confetti for your big day, we’d love to help. Because nothing says "we're married!" quite like a confetti moment.

Let the love fly. 💕 Get in touch with us to create your perfect blend.
