Best Uses for 10-Inch Wedding Sparklers
Our customers have had great success using 10-inch wedding sparklers with a 40-second burn time for:
- 50 or fewer guests, ideally handing out two wedding sparklers per person
- Wedding favors to be used for individual pictures or toasts
- Children who are attending the wedding or in the wedding party
If you plan to use wedding sparklers for a send-off line or for a large party of 100-200+ guests, we recommend choosing the 36-inch wedding sparklers instead, as these burn for up to 3.5 minutes. With the larger size sparkler, one per guest will be enough fun for everyone. Check out our sparkler sizing guide for more details on choosing the right length for your needs.
Popular Uses for 10-Inch Sparklers
10-inch sparklers can be used in a variety of ways at weddings, parties, or other celebrations:
As an alternative to the unity candle
Unity candles symbolize the joining of two lives. Rather than lighting the traditional candle, couples can light their sparklers together for a fun twist.
For the bride’s entrance
Sometimes a flower girl walks down the aisle, casting petals to the ground, to build anticipation for the bride’s big debut. In lieu of a flower girl, holding lit celebration sparklers out along the aisle is a beautiful, awe-inspiring way to light her path to the altar.
During cake cutting or quick toasts
All eyes are fixed on the couple during cake cutting and toast time. Highlight the moment with 10-inch sparklers! Time for a toast? Create the right atmosphere by having the speaker or the wedding party holding them.
In memorial
When a dear loved one, such as a parent or grandparent of the newlyweds, has recently passed on, it is customary to release a butterfly or a dove to the heavens. Lighting 10-inch wedding sparklers in memorial is another beautiful gesture to consider.
How to Take Photographs With Party Sparklers
From the first kiss to the first dance, lighting 10-inch party sparklers in the background produces a fleeting magical firefly effect that can be captured forever in photographs. While 20-inch sparklers or 36-inch sparklers are better suited for longer photo sessions, the 10-inch (40 second burn time) may be all you need to orchestrate a quick planned shot.
