CONFETTI GUIDE
Planning the perfect confetti moment for your special day?
This guide will help you choose the right amount and type of petals, ensuring your celebration is both beautiful and hassle-free.
Throwing
CONFETTI
We estimate that 1 litre of petals contains approximately 8 to 10 handfuls; however, smaller petals will naturally yield more petals per litre due to their size.
For larger petals, expect about 5 to 7 handfuls per litre.
Keep in mind that the actual number can vary depending on how much each person takes.
Examples to help you decide:
-
Per 8 to 10 guests, we suggest 1 litre of small petals.
-
Per 5 to 7 guests, we suggest litre of larger petals.
​
Helpful tip: Not all guests will throw confetti, so consider this when calculating the amount to order.
You can fill around 10 to 15 bags or envelopes (approximately 9cm x 11cm) from 1 litre of petals, depending on the size of the petals you choose.
Have you seen our new Confetti Boxes? Each box contains a generous handful of petals, making them a convenient and stylish way to provide your guests with confetti ready for the big moment.
​
Note: All petal quantities are measured using a 1-litre jug for consistency.

Table
DECORATIONS
Adding petals to your tables creates an elegant, and natural finish that can beautifully complement your wedding or event styling.
-
For round tables seating 8 to 10 guests, we suggest using approximately 1 litre of small petals per table for a light, scattered look.
-
If you’re using larger petals, plan for around 2 litres per table to achieve a similar level of coverage.
​
Petals look especially beautiful when gently scattered around centrepieces, place settings, or along table runners.
Petal
PATHWAYS
If you’re planning to decorate the edges of your aisle or pathway, here’s a simple guide to help you calculate how many petals you’ll need:
-
Moderate Coverage: Allow approximately 1 litre of petals per 1 metre of pathway edge.
-
Light Coverage: Allow approximately ½ litre of petals per 1 metre of pathway edge.
​
Example:
For a pathway that is 5 metres long, remember to account for both sides of the aisle.
-
For moderate coverage, we would suggest a total of 10 metres (5 metres per side), which means you’ll need around 10 litres of petals.
-
For light coverage, we would suggest around 5 litres of petals in total.
​
Tip: Always measure the full length of both sides when planning your order to ensure you have enough petals for the look you want.
