dried white rose confetti

For weddings, either don’t use confetti or use biodegradable confetti (the single-use plastic ban from October 2023 may mean it’s banned anyway). Most churches prefer biodegradable confetti (avoid rice, it’s a slipping hazard and attracts pigeons!) Most confetti is made from plastic, so leaves plastic litter which harms wildlife and birds (it should be banned). Avoid throwing flower confetti near pets, as some flowers used (like delphiniums) are toxic to pets.

This is dried rose petal confetti (also in red). Or Shropshire Petals make confetti from local flowers (some of blooms are pet-toxic, see note above).

Strangely, most paper confetti is wrapped in plastic bags? Instead, visit Etsy to find alternatives from recycled materials:

  1. recycled paper
  2. recycled card
  3. recycled maps
  4. recycled music sheets
