Matching your confetti to September birthstone and flower

The ninth month of the year is here and the first month of autumn has arrived. September might be a special one for yourself, you may be getting married and looking for some colourful confetti to celebrate being officially newly-weds. If stuck on colour choice, why not use September as inspiration and match your confetti to this month's flower or birthstone.

September's flower Aster, which in Greek stands for 'star,' conveys deep emotional love and affection. This starry - shaped flower is the most colourful flower of fall and ranges in a variety of colours from red, white and orange. However, Aster is most popular for its purple colour tones - matching perfectly with our delphinium petals Amethyst and Midnight Bloom.

Why not switch it up and have a look at Highland Fling. This popular mix combines those purple colours with our Ivory petal Icing Sugar, which works beautifully against our white embossed cones or even in a confetti Box!

Our recently launched confetti wands are a fun way for children to throw confetti - this star design is an ideal match to the Aster flower.

Symbolising trust and honesty, September's birthstone Sapphire is known for its rich blue colour. This stone holds royalty love after Prince Charles gave Lady Diana a 12-carat blue Sapphire in 1981, which was later given to Catherine Middleton when William proposed in 2010.

If you would like to bring this wonderful royal blue colour into your wedding, how about choose confetti Blue Bird.

Frosted Blue is another choice if you're looking for a paler Blue.

If looking for a combination of both blues our delicately put together wheatsheaf would be a great table piece for a wedding inspired by Sapphire.
