Confetti is tiny pieces of coloured paper that people throw into the air over a couple who have just married, or at a parade or a loud party, so the air fills with bright specks. In English it is almost always a mass noun: confetti was everywhere, not a confetti or three confettis. The feeling is festive and messy — fun, not formal.
