The Best Fireworks for a Wedding
There’s something magical about weddings – the laughter, the love, the awkward dancefloor shuffles – and what better way to crown the perfect day than with a sky full of colour and sparkle?
Fireworks have long been a show-stopping favourite at weddings, and for good reason. They’re the ultimate finale, the cherry on the top, the “wow” moment that people remember long after the last glass of bubbly has been drained.
Why Fireworks Make the Perfect Wedding Finale
Your wedding day is all about creating unforgettable memories, and fireworks offer a spectacular way to mark the moment you officially start your lives together. Whether it’s a surprise treat for your guests or a planned showstopper as part of your evening entertainment, a well-timed fireworks display adds drama, excitement and a huge dollop of romance to your big day.
Not only do they look incredible in your wedding photos and videos, but they also give you a shared experience to enjoy with your family and friends. It’s the sort of thing that gets people talking – and posting – for weeks to come.
Types of Wedding Fireworks to Consider
Fireworks aren’t just about big bangs and chaos (although we’re big fans of those too). A wedding display can be as elegant or explosive as you like. Here’s a quick guide to the most popular options couples go for:
-
Romantic Colour Themes – Many couples opt for displays in their wedding colours, like whites, pinks, golds and silvers. Classy and coordinated, without blowing anyone’s eardrums off.
-
Catherine Wheels & Fountains – These lower-level effects are perfect for smaller venues or to frame entrances, first dances or cake-cutting moments.
-
Heart-Shaped Shells – Yes, really. These are literal hearts in the sky and they’re a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
-
Quiet Fireworks – If your venue has noise restrictions or you just fancy a softer touch, low-noise fireworks can still pack a visual punch without the sonic boom.
-
Pyromusicals – Fireworks choreographed to your chosen song. Imagine your first dance fading out as the fireworks rise in time to your favourite track. Goosebumps, guaranteed.
Effects to Look Out For
If you’re the type who loves a bit of firepower, then you’ll want to keep an eye out for these premium effects when planning your display:
-
Brocade Crowns – Golden willow-like effects that cascade gently, creating a romantic shimmer in the sky.
-
Peonies and Chrysanthemums – These classic spherical bursts offer vibrant colour and impact – a staple in any great display.
-
Crackling Comets and Mines – Great for building drama, these shoot from the ground with sparkle and noise before exploding overhead.
-
Whistles and Screechers – If you like your fireworks feisty, these add personality and flair.
Whether you go big or keep it intimate, the right mix of effects makes all the difference. And if you’re not sure where to start, we’ve got you covered...
