The confetti throwing is one of the most exciting, joyful moments of any wedding day and to capture that picture-perfect confetti shot, a little preparation goes a long way. Here are some simple tips to help you and your partner enjoy the moment and get the most stunning shots for your wedding film as you walk through the shower of confetti!
1. Walk Slowly and Enjoy the Moment
When it’s time for the confetti throwing, remember to walk slowly. Taking your time allows the confetti to swirl around you and stay in the air longer, creating a dreamy, magical effect for your film. Walking slowly also helps you to stay relaxed and soak up this special moment without rushing through it. Enjoy the cheers, the confetti and that celebratory feeling as it all unfolds!
2. Go Big with the Confetti
For a truly impactful confetti shot, more is definitely better! Aim for plenty of confetti so it fills the air around you, creating that vibrant, joyful effect. Light, biodegradable confetti is a great choice because it stays suspended for longer and it’s eco-friendly too. The extra confetti will make your video shots look fuller and more festive, displaying the energy of the moment.
3. Plan a Romantic Kiss in the Middle
To make the confetti toss even more romantic, plan to stop halfway through for a kiss! It’s a beautiful touch that looks amazing in photos and videos. A quick, mid-walk kiss gives the confetti time to fall and swirl around you, enabling your videographer to capture the joy and romance of the day in that one perfect shot. It also gives them time to film all the details and moments that are happening around you.
4. Smile and Look Ahead, Not Down
With so much happening around you, it’s easy to get distracted by the confetti or look down at the ground but try to keep your gaze up and your smile wide! Focus on looking at each other, glancing forward, or even looking at the videographer and photographer. This keeps your expressions natural and joyful and it helps the wedding film to feel really authentic. Avoid looking directly at the confetti and simply enjoy the celebration and each other!
The confetti throwing is one of the most fun moments of the wedding day and the highlights of any wedding film. By walking slowly, using plenty of confetti, pausing for a romantic kiss and focusing on enjoying the moment, you'll be able to ensure this magical moment it captured in its full glory. By following these tips, your confetti shots will be as vibrant and joyful as the day itself!
