5 Wedding Sparkler Mistakes To Not Make

Wedding Sparklers Mistake #1: Make sure to previously check with your wedding venue.

Before deciding if 36 inch wedding sparklers or 20 inch wedding sparklers are right for your wedding you need to check with your venue!  Always ask the wedding venue if you are allowed to use sparklers for your grand exit.  Most places now a days allow wedding sparklers as they have become extremely popular, but you will want to check with them first before moving forward with all of the different wedding sparkler options.  At ViP Sparklers are entire staff can help decide which sparkler is the best for your ideal wedding vision with an easy phone call or email!

Wedding Sparklers Mistake #2: Always make sure to have an announcement sign.

Why is an announcement important?  You will want to have the maximum number of guests still attending the wedding when the sparkler send off is taking place, so you will absolutely want to notify them you will be having a sparkler send off.  So it's always a great idea to have a sign letting them know there will even be wedding sparklers and exactly what time it will be taking place.  There a lot of great creative ideas for signs you can make, we've attached some wedding sparkler signs we thought stood out.

Wedding Sparklers Mistake #3: Make sure you have the proper outdoor space at your venue.

It's very important to take a couple moments beforehand and plan out exactly where you want to have your wedding sparkler exit.  You will absolutely want to make sure you have enough room for your guests to form two lines, where you and your newlywed will take center stage in.

Wedding Sparklers Mistakes #4: Having the right amount of matches or lighters.

If you plan on using standard matches you will want to make sure you have plenty on hand.  That's why we absolutely recommend using matchbox wedding favors!  You will want to make sure you hand them out beforehand or have these easily accessible at the sparkler station or start.  We even recommend using barbecue lighters, so even if it is a little bit windy you will have no problems lighting the sparklers in a easy and fashionable time.

Wedding Sparklers Mistakes #5: Having a proper place to dispose wedding sparklers.

Having the proper place to dispose the sparklers is perhaps the most overlooked part of planning with wedding sparklers.  Your guests will need a place to put the wedding sparklers out as soon as the send off is over.  The most popular and safest way we recommend our newlyweds to tackle this scenario is having a couple buckets at the start and end of the line filled with sand.  This way you can be sure the sparklers will be completely distinguished and will cool off almost instantly.  You will want to make sure the sparklers are completely cooled before you dispose of them in the trash as they may still be a fire hazard.

     Wedding Sparkler Tips

         For Photography

                 & Setup  

  

Everybody loves our famous wedding sparklers, but we want to make sure our customers and just even sparkler-fantics capture the spark to its fullest potential!  Our sparklers have helped hundreds of newlyweds make romantic and even enchanted pictures that become the focal point of the wedding.  At ViP Sparklers we want to make absolutely sure we share all of our knowledge we've learned from photographers and even our amazing customers!  

The most important thing to do before any of our wedding sparklers are lit or pictures are taken is to make sure your venue allows sparklers.  All of ViP Sparklers wedding sparklers are nearly smokeless and ash-less so they are safe for all venues.  It's important to ask this questions because most venues will allow sparklers, but the true gem here is they will already know where the best locations and spots to take these pictures!  

The next step in the process to ensure magical photographs is to absolutely notify your photographer you will be using wedding sparklers.  By giving them a heads up you will ensure they bring the proper equipment to guarantee a fantastic shoot! 

After hearing countless reviews from photographers it has come to be common knowledge the best type of wedding sparkler to use are metal based.  A lot of websites and vendors sell generic sparklers which contain a bamboo or wood based sparkler, these sparklers create a tremendous amount of smoke and can ruin any chance of a great photo shoot.  

When asking which sparkler size do they prefer the two most popular are the 20 inch wedding sparkler and 36 inch wedding sparkler.  Photographers prefer these sizes because the length of the burn time.  Authentic wedding sparklers that are 36 inches will last anywhere from four to four and a half minutes of burn time which gives your photographer a great window to take a bunch of photographs.  They're also extremely fond of the 20 inch wedding sparklers which has a two minute burn time.

Next, you need to make sure you have someone in charge of getting things in proper order and helpers to aide that person.  This is the most overlooked aspect, but perhaps the most important!  You do not want people lighting their sparklers at all different times having sparklers going out halfway through the grand exit.  Its best to have the newlyweds wait at the start of the line before they start the grand exit.  We have found its best to use barbecue lighters instead of matches due to potential weather conditions and time constraints.  Once one or two wedding sparklers have ignited, have them use these sparklers to ignite the unlit ones.  This will significantly speed up the process ensuring the perfect exit! 

After all of the wedding sparklers are lit you, its time for the exit!  When exiting through the tunnel of sparklers your natural reaction would be to jog or hurry through it!  You will actually want to do the complete opposite.  We've found its best to walk slowly through the tunnel of sparklers because the photographer will have the shutter speed set slower for best results.  You should also think about a safe and clean way to dispose the wedding sparklers.  Its best to have a bucket of sand or water to stick the sparklers in after they go out.  

We hope these helpful tips we've gathered from photographers and customers help create the perfect exit for you.  If you have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to email us at Sales@vipsparklers.com or even call our main office at 407.545.1398.  We can help you with the perfect size and quantity for you're wedding sparklers!

Affordable 36 Inch Sparklers

 Wedding  Sparklers- 36 inch

                                                               Benefits of  Wedding Sparklers

36" Wedding Sparklers Path!

  When dealing with wedding sparklers the most popular option and widely known is the 36 inch sparkler or more commonly known as a the #36 inch wedding sparklers.  These are the sparklers you see in majority of the wedding sparklers images and leave you breathtaking!  At ViP Sparklers we want to take the time to explain all of the positive benefits of choosing our 36 inch wedding sparklers over other sizes and even bamboo sparklers.  ViP Sparklers is happy to announce that we have made the #36 inch sparklers affordable for all brides and grooms! 

36 inch wedding sparklers over other products?  

The most prominent reason that #36 inch sparklers are chosen over any other wedding sparklers is because of the burn length.  At ViP Sparklers our 36" wedding sparklers will give you approximately four to four and half minutes of burn time! Our wedding sparklers are made out of steel wired which will create a drooping effect like other sparklers on the market.  We don't want you holding a sparkler that is slowly falling down! 

Why is the burn time important?

With the burn length being this long it allows all of your guests at the wedding to line up and light up all of there sparklers without worrying about some sparklers going out while you make your grand exit!  We never want you the bride to half to walk through sparklers that are running out!  With our wedding sparklers you will have enough time to not even worry about rushing and you can truly enjoy the moment in all of it's awe.  With ViP Sparklers you will not have to worry about anything but enjoying the moment, and that's what we want for you!

Why not 36" bamboo sparklers?

We highly discourage our brides and grooms purchasing any type of bamboo sparklers for many reasons.  Bamboo sparklers are very cheap and with these sparklers you really get what you pay for.  With these type of wedding sparklers you will find them to give off an excessive amount of smoke while being lit.  One of the coolest aspects of doing wedding sparklers is they create amazing photography and atmosphere.  If you choose bamboo sparklers you will be surrounded by what will look like a forest fire.  What also tends to happen with these type of sparklers is they create a huge drooping effect which makes them extremely difficult to hold.

 

Dedication you deserve!

At ViP Sparklers we have a full staff that allows us to give you the dedicated time and attention you deserve.  If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to always shoot us an email at sales@vipsparklers.com or even call our main offices at 407-545-1398.  We want to find the exact sparkler that you are looking for and add an extra spark to your night!
