Bubbles versus Sparklers


Ok, someone asked me today, if I prefer bubbles or sparklers at a reception and why? My answer is bubbles, bubbles, bubbles. Easy to do, inexpensive, no mess (if you make sure you buy the non staining variety) and they make beautiful pictures.
Ok, sparklers can make beautiful pictures too if, (these are big ifs), it is very dark outside when you leave, and if the site has ok’d them. Most will not ok the use of sparklers or if you do get an ok it is going to cost you. The site or you will need to have buckets of sand set out for the sparklers to be snuffed out in, one more add on charge for you. They will need clean up, people just tend to drop them on the ground. You will need to purchase the special longer ones made for weddings, the short ones burn out too quickly and produce too many sparks. And speaking of sparks, let’s not forget the chance that your dress or someone else’s could end up with little burn spots. Also, sparklers are only good in good clear weather. Add any dampness or rain and all you get is a cloud of smoke and a video full of people hacking and coughing including you. Yeah, my vote is bubbles all the way
