Are you watching the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? Shropshire Petals are sharing their ideas on how you can have a royal wedding inspired confetti moment on your wedding day.

A traditional moment at any wedding is the confetti throw. Throwing confetti over newly married couples marks the celebration of their marriage. Here are a few confetti mixes we have created inspired by some of the choices Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have made about their big day.

Having flower girls on your wedding day is the perfect way to include younger members of your family or close friends and give them a sense of importance on your big day. Traditionally, the significance of having a flower girl was to lead the bride forward and symbolise the innocence fading away, bringing her role as a wife and mother forward. These days, flower girls tend to carry cute wicker baskets scattering natural petal confetti as they proceed down the aisle before the bride enters. If you’re looking for something different, Shropshire Petals have just launched their brand-new range of adorable Flower Girl Wands. Make your flower girls feel like magical princesses as they carry their wands and hold them during your ceremony.

There is nothing cuter than flower girls and pageboys at a wedding. Dressed in cute outfits as they walk down the aisle before the bride, flower girls are usually seen throwing petals from a basket as they proceed towards the alter.
