Confetti

Confetti and fireworks are synonymous with celebration, happiness and good times. With that in mind, it’s only natural that both would find their place at a wedding or other special occasion.

Confetti is the safest option for celebration because it requires no permission, permits and there is no risk to anyone in the area. Tissue confetti is perfect for outdoor use because it is biodegradable, so it does not present any problems to the environment. Metallic confetti, however, is not biodegradable and should only be used indoors. Confetti is available in a variety of shapes and bright colors, so it’s fun for everyone to enjoy. Even children can partake in the festivities by tossing some confetti into the air. In addition, confetti is very easy on the budget because you get a lot of product for a little bit of money. Perhaps it will be used following the wedding ceremony, at the entrance to the reception or as the bride and groom leave for their honeymoon. Whatever the instance, there is no shortage of uses for this fun little product.

Fireworks are a common occurrence at many events, including New Years Eve and other happy occasions. In order to have them at your wedding or other special event, you must first make sure that they are legal in your area. If they are, purchase only those that meet the safety standards set forth by your local and state laws and regulations. You can learn more about fireworks law by calling your local police or fire department. It’s important to follow the instructions on the label to avoid injury or other mishaps. Select a location that does not have dry leaves, grass or an abundance of twigs as this could cause a fire hazard. In addition, make sure to have a supply of water nearby at all times.

It’s a good idea to begin shopping for either confetti or fireworks within several months of the wedding ceremony. If you would prefer to hire someone to display the fireworks, ask about retaining their services for your special day. You probably won’t want to have anyone in the wedding party or guest list doing this, so it’s a good idea to hire someone who is qualified and knowledgeable in handling these types of displays. Be sure to find out if any permits are required prior to such displays and always work them in so that they are not distracting to the neighborhood, such as late night hours.

You can order confetti through most online party supply stores or purchase it locally at a department or craft store. If you wish to hand out confetti packets to all of your wedding guests, simply create a small bag using lace or by purchasing a drawstring bag in the craft section at a local store. Fill each with confetti and pass them out amongst wedding guests. Fireworks should only be purchased through reputable dealers and must be legal for the state in which they are purchased. Never use homemade fireworks or anything that is not properly labeled with instructions and certification information.
