May’s Royal Confetti Mix of the Month
With the
coronation being the talk of the town, we have created this month's confetti
mix, using royal blues, reds, and white, in honour of the Union Jack. If you
are planning a British summertime wedding, complete with afternoon tea, lawn
games, and transportation fit for royalty, then this mix is the perfect fit.

Our Lady in
Red rose petals bring this mix to life as they sit proudly among our Icing
Sugar delphiniums, Burgundy Berry, and Bluebird cornflowers. We have put
together a Pinterest board to inspire you on how to use this fun and colourful colour
scheme. Just pour yourself a cup of tea or a glass of Prosecco, and let the
ideas take over!
Why use Biodegradable
Confetti
Most
wedding venues and churches only allow the use of biodegradable confetti made
from real flower petals for the wedding ceremony. That's because petal confetti
is eco-friendly, non-harmful to the environment, and naturally biodegradable
without requiring someone to pick it up. Plus, the petals are incredibly
pretty!
Here at the
Shropshire Petals farm, we grow all-natural, biodegradable confetti made only
from real flower petals. So any petals you choose for your big day will get the
seal of approval from your venue!

How Much Confetti Do I Need?
We have a
really handy confetti calculator that will let you know how much confetti you
need for your big day! Simply input the number of wedding guests you have
coming and follow the recommendation. After many years of throwing confetti, we
have found that 1 litre of confetti is equivalent to around 10-12 handfuls, or
up to 20 handfuls for children.
Remember,
you know your guests better than anyone, so if you think everyone is going to
throw confetti, make sure to get enough for everyone (or a little more if you
fancy having a few confetti throws!). Alternatively, if you think only around
half of your guests might throw, you can always opt for a smaller amount.

Order Confetti Now for Your
2023 Wedding
All our
petals are dried, so they last much longer than fresh petals. In fact, our
delphiniums can last for years! That said, when it comes to ordering your
wedding confetti, we have an easy rule to follow:
• If your
wedding is less than 3 months away, you can order now for immediate delivery.
When your petals arrive, just keep them stored away from heat, moisture, and
direct light.
• If your
wedding is over 3 months away, you can order as early as you like with our free
Delayed Delivery service. Simply add everything to your basket as normal, and
we'll ask you for your wedding date, then dispatch everything closer to your
wedding day. It's super simple!
We love to
see how you use our confetti, so don't forget to tag us on social media or send
your images via email.
Whatever
your plans are for the coronation, we hope you enjoy every minute of the
celebrations! We shall be raising a glass (or two!) from the petal shed!
