Wedding Decor
Dressing up the sparklers — like placing them in a wooden box or tying them with ribbons — will create a beautiful display that will add a special element to the day.

Get Creative
Straws, sparklers, what's the difference? Specially made cocktail sparkler sticks will dress up even water. And keep in mind other creative uses, like tinsel sparklers or s'more sticks.

Write Away
Sparkler writing is so fun and sweet. Spell out "love" or your initials and a heart — all you need is a good photographer who knows how to capture the moment.

Send-Off Tunnel
No sparkler roundup would be complete without the farewell shot. A send-off with bright surrounding lights is so picture-perfect.
