when do guest throw confetti?

You're not stupid... i dont really know either and was thinking about it the other day.. i'm glad someone else didnt know either...?

someone told me the bride and groom walked up the aisle first then went around to sign registry then came back out where every 1 was waiting with confetti..

We got married in church, we walked out of the church first and everyone followed. Photos were taken outside, people mingled for a while etc. The confetti was thrown (mainly for photo purposes) as we were walking from the church grounds and getting into the car to head towards the reception venue.

Usually photographers like to take pics before the confetti is thrown and then gives the nod for the confetti shots.

Thanks everyone, it sounds like we will just need to follow the photographer's guidance then!
?

We're planning a confetti shot during the photos outside so guests will throw it then. Our OTDC is goign to arrange it on the day ?

Traditionally and culturally when to throw does differ. Some beleive it should be done as the couple leave the church, others when the couple leave for reception. IMO, photographically, I prefer it after I have taken some romantic images of the couple to prevent multicolour dandruff on most of the shots.....although I would not prevent anyone from throwing when they wanted to.
