    Hi all, maybe a daft question, but who buys confetti etc? the guests or us? Also when and who gives it out? I am not keen on confetti and have heard the mention of using bubble instead, any suggestions on where to get them from?

    apparently they do them in mini champagne style bottles on this site. I'm going to be buying mine and getting the usher to give them out as people walk in to sit down... hope this helps! x

    I've seen some lovely boxes with real petal confetti in cones - they're £29.99-£45 for 25 so pricey, but sooo pretty! I'm gonna get some if there's anything left in the kitty and ask the ushers to hand it out while guests leave the church...

    You don't have to - lol - but at weddings I've been to a lot of people forget so it's nice to have SOME as people do like to throw it...

    If you really want confetti, it may be better to get it yourself- only one person took it to my cousins...

    that is the approach I have taken to most things so far so I think I will have to do the same with the confetti!

    Think you buy the confetti and leave it in a convenient place such as on table at doors of reception, chapel, church, registrar. If your having ushers, this is a good wee job to give them the task of giving it out! I like confetti myself however my church doesn't allow it anymore... inside or out :(

    As far as I know the guests buy it but I bought a bulk box off ebay so I'm putting one box on every other seat just incase people forget and there is enough in each box for about 3 handfuls so the kids can have some if they want to! x

    You can get mini champagne bottles filled with bubbles in £1 shops - one well-know one beginning with P and ending in Land sells about 6 bottles in a pack for just £1.00

    i think i may buy some just in case, it depends how the funds are going nearer the day, as everything adds up doesnt it, but you just dont want to be without the confetti in those photographs do you :)x
