Short answerUsually for the first dance, but it also works for a grand entrance, a cake cutting or a big reveal. It lasts for a few minutes, so it’s timed to your moment.
More about dry ice
Most couples book dry ice for the first dance. It gives you a thick, low cloud that hugs the floor while you dance, so it feels a bit like dancing on the clouds. It's often the most photographed moment of the night, and it looks especially good on an LED dancefloor. The same effect works well for a grand entrance, and it can also add some drama to a cake cutting or a big reveal.
Because the cloud only lasts a few minutes, timing matters. Just tell us when your first dance or big moment is happening and we'll have everything ready to go, so the cloud is at its best when you step out.
If you'd like a bigger finish, dry ice pairs beautifully with our cold spark fountains, which makes a finale everyone will want to film. Dry ice starts from £295 including VAT. We deliver, set up and collect, with delivery priced by distance and shown in the instant quote. A 25% deposit secures your date.
