how much confetti/petals?

Mellow_Yellow, 22 September, 2011 at 17:13 Posted on Planning 0 7

Should I allow one confetti cone per couple or per guest?

If buying dried rose petals, how many small cones would one litre fill?

Looking at the idea of having a big basket or two, so that people can just take a handful of confetti before the photo, how many litres would be a handful for all (48) or half (24) of our guests?

TIA x

    I have got 80 cones - we have 100 adults and 25 children coming to the church. I was advised that many of the men will not want to throw it.

    Each cone will have a handful of confetti - I bought 10 litres of delphinium petals from Shropshire petals and there is plenty for my cones.

    My florist advised that rose petals are v expensive.

    So we have decided to use a different flower ( sorry I can't remember) but they have big petals and will be much cheaper. I am paying £20 and there will be a wicker basket full for people to grab and help themselves. The florist is also going to pluck the petals on the day so they will be nice and fresh Smiley smile

    I ordered 2 litres and that was just enough for 40 sachets of confetti , if that helps. It was from Shropshire Petals.

    I'm thinking about these types of petals: http://shop.confetti.co.uk/product/delphinium-petals-ivory/68235/

    and wondering how many litres would equal 40 handfuls - does anyone know?

    We're allowed natural petals, but not paper, plastic, etc.
