Joe and Rachel

Wedding Fireworks, Crowborough, Sussex

The brief: Alchemy Fireworks was asked to produce a spectacular wedding firework display for Joe and Rachel’s wedding reception.

The location: The event was held at a private residence near Crowborough, Sussex.

The display: The groom gave us an open brief to produce a display a varied aerial firework display for his wedding. He is a big firework fan, so we spent a good few hours discussing the content of the display, looking at pictures and images of fireworks, and of course scoping out the venue itself to check we had the necessary safety distances and identifying any local residents and livestock owners that would need to be notified of the display.

The feedback: “The fireworks were amazing, even better than we had hoped.”

David and Karen

Wedding Fireworks to Music, Reading, Berkshire

The location: The event was held at Ufton Court, near Reading, in Berkshire.

The display: Our show included a mix of low, mid and aerial fireworks, all perfectly choreographed to a selection of the couple’s favourite music. Our FireOne digital firing system and state of the art Bose sound systems make it easy to produce wedding firework displays that are perfectly synchronized to music, whether it’s Madonna or Mozart. Many wedding couples like David and Karen choose a selection of their favourite tunes and ask us to produce a mix, so you have your own personalized soundtrack and your own personalized spectacular wedding firework display!

Feedback: “The fireworks were very well received by everyone at the wedding and I am still left with the image of the very last crescendo – having exploded spectacularly across the sky – hanging there like a curtain of gently falling golden cinders (there I go getting all poetic).”

Jonty and Susan

Surprise Wedding Fireworks, Bournemouth, Dorset

The brief: Alchemy Fireworks was asked to produce a spectacular wedding firework display for Jonty and Susan’s wedding reception.

The location: The event was held at Canford Magna Golf Club near Bournemouth, Dorset.

The display: The best man gave us an open brief to produce a display a varied aerial firework display lasting only 3-4 minutes. The key consideration on this occasion was as much about keeping it a surprise from the bride and the guests as the content of the display itself. Surprise wedding firework displays are something that we are very experienced at producing, and it occasionally requires a little bit of a “cloak-and-dagger” approach and even the occasional white lie to keep the display secret all the way up to firing time – but it’s always worth it for the look on people’s faces when that first volley of fireworks explodes.

The feedback: “A spectacular display – thank you so much.”

Simon and Emma

Wedding Fireworks, near Thirsk, Yorkshire

The brief: Alchemy Fireworks was asked to produce a spectacular wedding firework display for Simon and Emma’s wedding reception.
The location: The event was held at a private residence near Thirsk, in Yorkshire.
The display: The groom gave us an open brief to produce a display a varied aerial firework display for his wedding. He is a big firework fan and a fully trained professional pyrotechnician, but understandably he didn’t want the hassle of actually working to set up his wedding fireworks display, so he asked us to do it for him. (We suspect that he knew something we didn’t because despite it being a mid-summer display the weather was decidedly wet and wild – similar to November the 5th but not what you’d hope for in June.) We spent a good few hours discussing the content of the display, and making show design suggestions before we agreed on a final show design that incorporated all his favourite effects.

Gerard and Anna

Wedding Fireworks, New Forest, Hampshire

The brief: Alchemy Fireworks was asked to produce a spectacular but quiet wedding firework display for Gerard and Anna’s wedding reception.
The location: The event was held at a Rhinefield House Hotel, in the New Forest, Hampshire.
The display: The groom gave us an open brief to produce a display a varied aerial firework display for his wedding. He is a big firework fan, so we had a few phonecalls and email exchanges discussing the content of the display, looking at pictures and images of fireworks, and we even produced a full CGI preview video of the display so that he could give us feedback on our proposal before the display actually took place. Given the nature of the venue the material was restricted to quiet fireworks only, and because the couple didn’t want any music with the display we had to use all our experience to produce a show that was spectacular and exciting but which also kept the noise of the fireworks to an absolute minimum.
The feedback: “we loved it!”

Bruce and Katerina

Surprise Wedding Fireworks, St Albans, Hertfordshire

The brief: Alchemy Fireworks was asked to produce a spectacular surprise wedding firework display.
The location: The event was held at Sopwell House, St Albans, in Hertfordshire.
The display: Our show included a mix of low, mid level and aerial fireworks reaching a maximum height of 600 feet. The groom gave us an open brief to produce a display a varied aerial firework display. The key consideration on this occasion was as much about keeping it a surprise from the bride and the guests as the content of the display itself. Surprise wedding firework displays are something that we are very experienced at producing, and it occasionally requires a little bit of a “cloak-and-dagger” approach and even the occasional white lie to keep the display secret all the way up to firing time – but it’s always worth it for the look on people’s faces when that first volley of fireworks explodes.
The feedback: “The display that you put on was unbelievable, it far exceeded my expectations. Everyone who was at our wedding has commented on it and said it was a brilliant addition, and I have to agree.”
