FAQ
Good to know
How much does confetti cost in Vancouver?
Pricing depends on your date, city, venue access and the moment you want to create. Starting rates are shown above, and we confirm your full quote in writing within a few hours (often same day, including evenings).
Is the confetti safe for indoor venues?
Yes. We use flame-retardant, biodegradable tissue confetti and confirm rules with your venue ahead of time — ceiling height, air systems and house policies included.
Do you handle confetti cleanup?
Cleanup itself isn’t included — we pack down our own equipment, and confetti pickup is arranged with your venue. We use biodegradable confetti that most venues clear easily, which is why halls across Metro Vancouver keep welcoming us back.
Can you match our wedding or brand colours?
Absolutely. Tell us your palette and we’ll mix the confetti to match — metallic golds, soft pastels, brand-exact tones or a custom blend.
What’s the difference between confetti and Holi powder?
Confetti gives you a crisp, floating burst that photographs beautifully indoors. Holi powder creates a vivid cloud of colour — incredible outdoors and for gender reveals. Many clients combine both.
What if it rains on our outdoor date?
Light rain is fine for cannons. For heavy weather we’ll help you shift the burst indoors or under cover — we plan a backup with you in advance, free.
