Breathtaking aerial images taken from a drone give a stunning bird's eye view of stripes of color across a corner of England as confetti fields come to full bloom.

The 14-acre field in Worcestershire featuring six stunning rows of brightly colored flowers is only open for a few days each year.

The colorful field is only open from July 1 to July 10 as the delphiniums only bloom for just two weeks every year.

Thousands of couples flock to the floral hotspot in Wyke Manor Estate site in Pershore, Worcs., ahead of their nuptials.

The natural confetti is sold by the pint and costs Ā£12 ($14) each which is enough for around ten handfuls for guests to throw over newlyweds.

Customers can choose from a range of flowers including delphiniums, roses, hydrangeas, lavender and bougainvillea.

The flowers are handpicked, before being dried and packaged for a personal service.

Workers at the Real Flower Confetti Company then pick the flowers before boxing them
off for weddings around the globe.

Their bespoke service has been used by various celebrities including Madonna and Guy Ritchie and Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas.

Athlete Jessica Ennis used the confetti while marrying Andy Hill and Take That used it during their Progress Tour.

Prince Harry also chose the firmā€™s pale pink delphinium confetti to throw over Princes Charles and Camilla at their wedding in 2005.
