Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our special effects services.
Are cold spark machines safe for indoor use?
Yes, absolutely. Cold spark machines are specifically designed for safe indoor use. They produce no heat (safe to touch immediately), no smoke, no smell, and won't trigger fire alarms. They're completely venue-safe and certified for indoor events including weddings, corporate functions, and venues with sensitive fire detection systems.
How long does the dry ice "dancing on clouds" effect last?
The dry ice cloud effect typically lasts for the duration of your first dance (3-4 minutes) with controlled dissipation. The thick white fog stays low to the ground, creating the magical "dancing on clouds" appearance without obscuring your guests' view. We can also create the effect for longer durations if needed.
What's the difference between confetti cannons and confetti blowers?
Confetti cannons create a dramatic single blast of confetti, perfect for key moments like the end of your first dance or a product reveal. Confetti blowers provide a continuous, gentle shower of slow-falling confetti over 2+ minutes, creating a magical atmosphere. Blowers are ultra-quiet and perfect for maintaining ambiance during speeches or performances.
Do you offer biodegradable confetti options?
Yes, we offer biodegradable confetti options that are environmentally responsible and safe for outdoor use. These are perfect for outdoor weddings, festivals, and venues with environmental policies. We also have tissue paper, metallic, and custom-colored confetti in various shapes including hearts and stars.
Why do I need haze for my event?
Haze makes light beams visible and creates dramatic depth in your venue. Without haze, moving head lights and beam effects are much less visible. It's essential for concerts, DJ performances, and any event where lighting is a key element. Our water-based haze is safe, odorless, and won't trigger fire alarms when used correctly.
How far in advance should I book special effects?
We recommend booking special effects 4-6 weeks in advance to ensure availability, especially for peak wedding season (May-September) and popular event dates. However, we can often accommodate last-minute requests subject to availability. Contact us as early as possible to discuss your requirements.
Do you provide operators for the special effects?
Yes, all our special effects come with professional operators included in the hire. Our experienced technicians will handle setup, operation, timing, and pack-down, ensuring your effects are executed perfectly and safely. We work closely with your event timeline to trigger effects at exactly the right moments.
Can special effects be used outdoors?
Yes, most of our effects work outdoors, though effectiveness may vary with weather conditions. Cold sparks work brilliantly outdoors. Dry ice and haze effects can be affected by wind, so we assess each outdoor setup individually. Confetti works great outdoors - we recommend biodegradable options for outdoor venues. We'll advise on the best effects for your specific outdoor venue.
