Do you want some extra wedding entertainment ideas? What about some Wedding Fireworks?
We've teamed up with Illusion Fireworks to establish the five things to consider if you want wedding fireworks.
- Does my venue allow fireworks?
It’s important to find out if your wedding venue allows fireworks - most do but some may have restrictions. In some cases the venue may have a preferred supplier, they may specify the fireworks must be over by a certain time or that only ‘low noise’ fireworks may be used. Very few venues allow you to set off your own fireworks because of the insurance liability.
- How much should we spend?
Think about what kind of display you’d like. If a supplier were to quote ten thousand pounds for a multiple site masterpiece when in fact you were only looking for a five hundred pound flurry of golden willows, you probably wouldn’t book. Realistically a wedding fireworks display should cost between £1000 and £3500.
- Can we have fireworks to music?
Fireworks choreographed with split second accuracy to music will provide your guests with a memory they will never forget. Fireworks visually reinforce the powerful emotions experienced while listening to music, so the two together create a unique spectacle. It’s best to have a dedicated PA between the audience and the fireworks - a DJ playing music from the marquee will be overpowered by the display!
- Can we have our wedding colours in the display?
Of course! Whether you want your wedding colours to feature at the beginning and end of a display, or a show-stopping firework rainbow, or even love heart shells (always a winner with the crowd!), there are plenty of opportunities to personalise the display.
- Is it easy to arrange a fireworks display?
With the right supplier, arranging a fireworks display couldn’t be simpler. Decide what you’re looking for from the display and how much you’re willing to spend, and your fireworks supplier will sort the rest.
