petal confetti is so important

We always use and encourage natural, eco-friendly petal confetti. Firstly, it looks stunning in photos! The bright natural colours pop as the light hits them. Petal confetti is usually much smaller and comes in various sizes, which won’t stain your dress should the actual Lake District weather come into force. Secondly, it’s biodegradable, and our priority as green champions is to ensure that our petal confetti is not damaging to the environment or the natural habitat of some wildlife in and around our venue.

the best supplier

We recommend and use the Shropshire Petal Company. Not only do we love their petal confetti but also their ethos too. As mentioned on their website, “during the growing process, our flower field provides a stunning haven for wildlife during the Summertime. We want to highlight the importance of bees and take on the exciting challenge of creating a picture of a bee with flowers on our flower field. We created it from cornflowers, which bees love!”

Not only can you use dried flowers for your petal confetti, but you can also use them for your bouquet, buttonhole, or flower crown. Why not get creative and make your bouquet or flower crown? YouTube offers some great tutorials on how to make them. You can also support your local florist by purchasing dried flowers directly from them, taking another eco-friendly step towards a greener wedding. Not only will you have the most beautifully scented keepsake, but you will also play your part in making your wedding day more environmentally friendly and sustainable.

TEAM WORK

With all of this in mind, we want to make your confetti planning as smooth as possible and are delighted to have teamed up with www.shropshirepetals.com to provide you with a selection of petal confetti options. If you want a completely stress-free confetti experience, we can organise it for you. Pink and blue are the best colours for that perfect throw. They will stand out brilliantly in your photographs and complement any colours incorporated into your outfits. We use a mix of both colours for our in-house confetti. Alternatively, you can purchase your confetti from Shropshire Petals directly to personalise your colours.

Thank you to Shropshire Petals for some of the beautiful photos and to our recommended photographers for sharing their images, including Emma Billsborough, Jo Bradbury, Simon Huges, and Jenna Carpenter.
