How much confetti do I need for my wedding?
So you're planning your wedding day and you're not sure how much biodegradable petal confetti you should provide for your guests? Don't worry Shropshire Petals can help.
We usually find that providing enough natural petal confetti for at least half your guests will give you enough for that wow factor, plus we find the ladies throw more than the gents. If you think everyone will throw, why not provide enough for them all?
As our petals are so lightweight we measure our confetti by the litre, this makes it simple as approximately 10 handfuls is 1 litre.
In the photo below Katie and Nathan had 40 wedding guests and they wanted everyone to throw so they ordered 4 litres of Pink Lemonade confetti to get this amazing confetti moment!
Alternatively if you have 100 wedding guests and think half your guests might throw, 5 litres of confetti will be enough for 50 handfuls. Below is a step-by-step guide of how to use the Shropshire Petals Confetti Calculator, click here to try for yourself.
First you need to decide what your petals are for, we are going to select throwing confetti on this occasion, but you can come back if you're thinking of having table confetti, a petal path down the aisle or even a few flower girls for your big day.
Once you've selected how you'd like to use your confetti, you simply use the slider to show how many wedding guests you have attending. You can even select if you think everyone will throw, just half or even a quarter of your guests.
Once you've entered all the info into the calculator it will show you a recommended amount of confetti. Just remember you can still go back to change any numbers or answers if you're not sure at this stage. Also, you can always choose to have more confetti and use any left over confetti to go into your wedding album, or inside your wedding photo frame as a momento of the day.
If you're still not sure how much confetti you might need for your big day, you can give us a call on 01952 691553 or drop us an email at enquiries@shropshirepetals.co.uk we are always happy to help.
