Love is in the air for wedding planning!

Seems like each February we start hearing from lots of brides. They are ramping up their wedding planning for spring and summer weddings. And with Valentine's Day happening next weekend, it's easy to get caught up in all the excitement!

Many brides want to know how to use sparklers for weddings safely. We have a few suggestions to share to keep your wedding safe and fun:

1. Only use outside.
2. Test one sparkler before your event so you know what to expect.
3. Light one sparkler at a time and never light a bundle of sparklers at once.
4. Use a lighter that keeps your hand away from the flame, such as a butane or barbecue lighter. Matches will not burn hot or long enough to light your sparklers.
5. Instruct guests to dip unlit sparklers into their neighbor’s lit sparklers to light up a crowd quickly.
6. Always light the sparkler at the tip furthest away from the wire handle.
7. Keep lit sparkler at arms length away from the face, body, or clothing of yourself or other people nearby.
8. Do not try to re-ignite a sparkler or re-light a “dud.” Dispose of properly by soaking in water.
9. Be sure to keep a lit sparkler away from flammable materials, such as gasoline, paper napkins, or tissues.
10. Never grab a burned or burning portion of a sparkler.
11. Keep water nearby (garden hose or bucket).
12. Dispose used sparklers in a bucket of water or sand or on a metal tray. Once the sparkler cools then the sparkler wires can be thrown into the trash.

Some are simply common sense, but all serve as a friendly reminder for how to safely use sparklers at a wedding or any special event!

Amazing photographs of sparklers at weddings

I was digging around the internet today and found several amazing photographs of sparklers at weddings posted on websites and blogs of professional photographers. I rarely get to see our wedding sparklers in action, so finding these photos is almost like opening up gifts from Santa on Christmas morning!

I think using sparklers in a newlywed's grand exit is so fabulous because of the dramatic lighting created. Talented photographers know how to capture the excitement and drama of the moment and those photographs become lasting memories.

I have posted a few of those photographs below. To provide full and honest disclosure, I have not contacted these photographers nor asked permission to use their photographs. But I have tried to give full credit by listing their names and providing their website addresses.

These are just a few of my wonderful discoveries...I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Graduation Party Favors

Graduations not only celebrate someone's most recent accomplishment, but they also mark the beginning of the next step. Graduations are also called commencement ceremonies because the honoree is not only graduating from one experience, but moving on to the start of something new.

Many of us have attended commencement ceremonies for students graduating from high school and college. It is especially fun to attend preschool, kindergarten or elementary school graduations. What a fabulous way for young children to receive praise and love while leaving a lasting impression with them for the importance of education.


Graduation parties are a fun way to help the graduate celebrate with family and friends. It is a time to thank family members and close friends for their support and encouragement along the way. And graduation party favors can make the party even more special!


Graduation Party Favors - More Information

One of our most popular products for graduation party favors is the party popper. Party poppers are perfect to use for a graduation party. When the string is pulled they create a loud bang while shooting colorful confetti or streamers everywhere.


Another popular party favor for your graduation celebration is the sparkler, specifically the color sparklers. Color sparklers are 10" long and come in the colors of red, blue, and green. They produce radiant sparks of brightly lit color that last for about 35-45 seconds each.
