    Hi Ladies,

    Im making confetti cones and will fill them with natural dried petals, but im not sure how many to make. I dont think all 60 of my dau guests will be throwing confetti, i was going to do about half, would that be enough do you think?

    Yeah I would make about 25?? the blokes dont normally get too involved and stand back a bit dont they ;) depends on your guests?
    I've got 70 guests and only have 20 small organza bags filled with the natural petals, people can share if they need to xx

    We didn't do any for our wedding - I always thought it was up to the guests to provide their own confetti.

    Depends on your venue, most dont allow confetti now unless its bio degradable so doing it yourself just stops the hassle of your guests trying to find some and not bothering if they cant!
    If your not bothered about having it then dont provide it but if like me you want the confetti photos then provide the stuff the venue allows for them and let them know they dont have to get any!

    I definitely want the confetti photos and i dont want my guests bringing non- bio stuff and then not being able to use it so this way it covers all bases x

    Good advice on here. I wasn't going to have confetti but now reading these posts and the other about the boi-degradable confetti I think I'll get me some. Should I wait until nearer the time to get them? Just wondering whether because they're natural if they have a shelf life xx
