Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How to use Rice Butterflies effectively?
A: Put them out of a box and stir them gently with your fingers to unmingle them by “adding” some air. Use one box of 100 butterflies to fill four confetti cones (25 butterflies in one confetti cone). Don’t push them, let them be airy, otherwise you will throw “a ball of butteflies”. Stand one to two meters away from the newlyweds while tossing Rice Butterflies. Guests usually form a corridor. If windy, direct the butterflies in wind’s direction. Always throw the content from above your shoulder, not below.
Q: Can I order some color hue that is not featured in the shop?
A: Yes, you can. The minimum amount of ordered boxes is 25. You can see the hues here.
Q: We’re having a wedding with 100 guests. How many boxes of Rice Butterflies do you recommend?
A: We usually recommend one box on every tenth guest. In this case, 10 boxes would do great. For a smaller and intimate weddings, where guests are carefully selected, we also recommend ten boxes, because all guests will be eager to participate in a ceremony. And the newlyweds will be showered with one thousand Rice Butterflies!
