How To Plan a Sparkler Sendoff for 200+ People
Getting a 200-person wedding party to do anything in a synchronized fashion may seem challenging, but we see it happen all the time with beautiful wedding sparkler sendoffs. The trick is to have your sparklers on display somewhere and start spreading the buzz early at the reception, so people know what to expect and anticipate the big moment.
What's the Best Type of Sparkler for a Big Wedding?
For big wedding sendoffs that take longer to organize, the 36-inch wedding sparklers will be the best option. With a burn time of 4 full minutes, you'll be able to coordinate the lines and even take a couple of walks through the tunnel of light to capture that perfect photo. You'll also want to make sure you buy high-quality gold wire sparklers, as these are smokeless, ashless, and produce the best photos.
How Many Sparklers Do You Need for 200 Guests?
You only need one 36-inch sparkler per guest, so this 200-person package does the trick.
How To Organize a Sparkler Sendoff at Weddings?
- Sparkler sendoffs are a great time to get the wedding party involved. The best man and maid of honor can start spreading the word that the event's taking place.
- Organize the guests into two 100-person lines facing one another.
- Select 2-4 people as designated lighters. Using a butane lighter each designated lighter should light one of the free 10-inch lighting sparklers (provided with your order). Once their sparkler is burning they can walk down a section of the line lighting each guest sparkler with theirs.
- Get your photographer ready and have everyone hold their sparklers up high as the newlyweds walk down a magical aisle of golden light!
What To Do With Sparklers After Using Them?
Once your main event is over, you'll need a place to cool down all those hot wedding sparklers. We recommend purchasing two galvanized metal sparkler buckets, which fit 100 sparklers each, and filling them with water for proper extinguishment.
If a few guests can't make it, and you end up with extras, seal our guaranteed-fresh wedding sparklers in a cool, dry container and use them at events throughout the year—like birthday parties, Independence Day celebrations, or New Year's parties.
Other Ways To Use 36-Inch Sparklers at Your Wedding
Sparkler sendoffs aren't the only reason to purchase the package of 200 sparklers. Sparklers can also be used for wedding party introductions to kick off the reception, the couple's first dance, toasts, photo sessions, and as favors. The 36-inch sparklers are the largest size, so you may consider 10-inch or 20-inch wedding sparklers if you're organizing a quick toast or need a few quick photos of the kids playing outside.
