Wedding Wednesdays: Fabulous Firework Inspired Reception Details

Since it's almost Independence Day and one of the best ways to celebrate is with fireworks, we thought this post was absolutely necessary, especially for brides planning their wedding around the 4th of July! You may consider having a fireworks display at your reception but we know this can be costly and also not allowed at certain venues. So instead we wanted to share some ideas on how to incorporate this element into your reception without the hassle. From bouquet to drink stirrers, check out these fabulous firework inspired details that will have your guests swooning!

Brightly Colored Dahlia Bouquet

These dahlias mimic the shape of a firework right when it goes off. We love the illusion this creates and how it adds to the theme as you walk into your reception.

Shimmering Bridesmaid Gowns

Because of course you want your closest girlfriends to sparkle on your big day! These beautifully beaded gowns are a delicate display of what a firework looks like as it fades away.

Hanging Light Globes

When you look quickly, these globes actually look like a firework exploded! We love how the wood frame is almost hidden in the night sky, leaving the twinkle lights as the focal point.

Displayed on Your Cake

This is just the right amount of what you would want to display on your cake. Simple yet elegant and fits right into the theme!

Sparkly Drink Stirrers

How fun are these? They photograph so well and your guests will enjoy them all night as they sip on your signature cocktail!

A Glittery Goodbye

Have your guests share in a glittery goodbye with you after the reception wraps up. Similar to confetti but you get that extra shimmer in photos that reminds us of a fading firework!

Sparkler Send-off

Illuminate your exit with a simple sparkler send-off. Much more cost effective than real fireworks and it gives your guests a chance to participate!

Regardless of the real thing or in the details, it is without a doubt that you'll be seeing fireworks when marrying the one you love (we just hope these ideas inspire you along the way to devour the details of your reception)!
