Prices for a Wedding Firework Display by Alchemy Fireworks Ltd
The duration and cost of a wedding firework display are very closely linked. In our professional opinion, if a display is good enough, it is long enough. The only time anyone will complain about the duration of a firework display is if the quality (ie intensity) is poor. With that in mind it’s more important to think of budgeting for a wedding fireworks display as a £-per-minute ratio, with the total firework budget divided by the total duration. Simply, the greater the £-per-minute spend, the more impressive the display will be both in terms of quantity of fireworks, quality of effects and size of material. Most wedding firework displays that we produce cost between £200-per-minute and £500-per-minute. Most couples have a set budget for their wedding fireworks and so they tend to work backwards from that. They decide how impressive they want the display to be, and then work out how long the display should be. We wouldn’t recommend a display that lasts much less than 5 minutes (just because of the time it takes to get people to the viewing area). At the other end of the scale, we wouldn’t recommend going over 10 minutes. The London New Year’s Eve fireworks display has a huge budget but only lasts 10 minutes, simply because people have a limited concentration span, especially for something as engaging as fireworks. At a wedding the firework display will only be one part of the entertainment, so it doesn’t have to last as long as a Bonfire Night display: it isn’t the main reason why everyone is there!
Prices for a wedding firework display for 2010/2011 start from £1000 plus vat for 5 minutes, but please contact us for a quote tailored to your date, venue, and requirements.
