The Legality of Wedding Sparklers in your State

With so many couples using sparklers at their weddings these days, many venues are adding in new rules about how they can and can’t be used. Most of the time, they are common safety practices that all venues should adhere to, but occasionally they have specific limitations regarding their use or prohibit them all together. That’s why it’s always a good idea to check with your wedding venue before you decide to buy sparklers for your wedding.

However, the vast majority of wedding venues will follow the basic laws surrounding fireworks that they have in their state. Most venues stay up to date with their knowledge of fireworks laws, but since they can change quickly and without much media coverage, it’s important to know the laws in your state; even if your wedding venue allows the use of sparklers. For that reason, I’ve compiled a set of links so you can check to see if wedding sparklers are legally allowed in your state.

By checking your state laws, you can be certain whether or not fireworks, and thus wedding sparklers, can be used in your state. In my opinion, it’s always best to check ahead of time rather than making an expensive purchase that you’ll regret later.
