Confetti burst vs petal toss exit?

[SWBride]

Hi everyone! I'm trying to decide if I want to use the confetti burst or the petal toss for my staged exit from the wedding pavilion. I heard the confetti can have off timing. Has anyone used it and what was your experience like? Thanks for your feedback!

We used the confetti cannon that goes off inside the WP. It's Tge one thing I really wanted since we didn't do any additional decor at the ceremony site. What our photogs knew, but is not obvious, is that the burst happens mid aisle so if you want to be in it And for pictures you do need to come down the aisle a bit and pause. It also apparently was unexpectedly loud, which I don't remover at all!

I loved it and loved the pictures and video.

I'm thinking of doing the wedding wand with ribbon. That way you don't have to worry about timeing and it kind of looks like the confetti.

Sambycat, we're getting married in the WP too and I'm not going to have many decorations either so I wanted something fun like the confetti canons. Thanks for the feedback. That's going to help a lot with our decision making.

well, if there is anything else i can tell you about it, let me know! again, for us, it was a fun choice - there is TONS of streamers (it’s not confetti with this per se, although there is some kind of confetti thing that they do have). and a couple of folks did tease us about the “bang” when it goes off! we didn’t have mistiming exactly, i FELT awkward doing the kiss/you are husband and wife then walking THEN stopping - the arndts (HIGHLY RECOMMEND!) cued us to pause fr a kiss halfway down and then it went off. when looking at the video now it looks fine - you get all weirded out on the big day of course! DH just said yes, he would do the cannon again!

We did the confetti cannons outside of the WP. We also had bubbles, so it made for a nice effect. We didn't have any issues with the timing.
