Sweet greetings everyone!
Tossing confetti at the newlyweds is a common sight at weddings. This age-old practice traces its roots in Great Britain. Back in the days, guests toss rice onto the newlyweds as a symbol of fertility. The Italian version involved showering the couple with sugared almonds. Eventually, this tradition found its way in all parts of the globe and took on different versions among different cultures.
Wedding confetti comes in various shapes, sizes, color and texture. In today's weddings, we see a lot of options for confetti as well as fun and exciting alternatives. Here are some interesting and popular choices that will certainly win your heart.
Daisy chain confetti add a summer feel to a wedding regardless of season

Lots of Love,
