Confetti throw

Make sure your venue allows it. Many do not.

Thanks @Celia they definitely do!

Seems like a major waste of paper

And also make sure it's biodegradable, even though I would still feel bad about all the trash laying around after.

Would not want confetti thrown at me. I imagine it sticking to my hair and makeup.

I think it looks awesome. If your venue allows it, go for it!

Haven't seen this. My friends did confetti guns/cannons and a few were duds so read reviews on them!

@mkebride

yes! This is a must.

@Power2 it will definitely stick but i love confetti! I might consider dried lavender, that's also one my favorites.

I haven't seen this done, but it looks cool. We are hoping to provide guests with bubbles, so they could blow them as we're pronounced husband and wife.

The photo looks magical because the confetti is a photoshop overlay.

Talk to your photographer about this final look. This was created in post production.

@ms.macmen

It does look like so much fun! Thanks girl!

Thanks @Jess, I've done some reviews but they are just so expensive! I hope someone who's done it can say they got the same effect without one! It would save me from buying the cannon...

@mnmnmonique

Bubbles are cool too, if I don't do confetti bubbles will definitely be our next option

@Kathleen

I feel cheated haha. No wonder this looks awesome! Thank you!! I will definitely ask my photographer about it!

It's really pretty!! Definitely check with your venue. Ours didn't allow that or fake petals.

And this is just for confetti!!!!! There are sparkler, bubble, sunlight, rain, anything!

Jameena, the great thing about the overlay is that there's no mess to clean up! If your venue does allow guests to throw ANYTHING, your photographer can overlay the confetti file. The guests just need to be in the motion of throwing something.

@Kathleen

Wow wow wow! Kathleen you're a jewel! Thanks so much, I will definitely look into this!

I did bubbles for my first wedding & it makes for really pretty pictures! Confetti is really hard to clean up! Just keep that in mind.

On Pintrest, they have links to free printables to make your own paper cones. Just fill them up the night before and have your guests toss away!

If you like the look, we're doing flower petals. Our florist is making little bags with flower petals to leave on the end of each aisle with a cute note that says something like "when Mr. and Mrs. come your way, throw some petals and shout hooray!" Haha
