Wedding & Event Special Effects in Los Angeles

Dry ice and warm water make a heavy white cloud that spreads across the dance floor and hugs it, so the couple appears to dance above it. People search for it as low-lying fog or dry-ice fog; it is made for the first dance, a parent dance or one feature moment.

Our crew builds the cloud as the song starts and keeps it rolling to the end. Outdoors, the wind changes how it moves, so we look at the space with you first.

Cold spark machines send up a fountain of sparks with no open flame, for a grand entrance, a first dance, the chair lift during the hora, the cake or a Bar or Bat Mitzvah reveal. Our crew places, tests and runs every unit and fires it on the beat with the lighting.

Venues set their own rules for spark effects, so we confirm what yours allows, and where the machines can stand with clear space around them, before the date.

Confetti cannons give a celebration its closing burst: the grand finale, the peak of the hora, the reveal at an awards night or the last second of a New Year's countdown. Each burst is cued to the track, so the whole room sees it on the beat.

Before you plan around confetti, ask your venue whether it allows confetti indoors and who handles the clean-up afterward.

CO2 jets, also called cryo cannons, fire a short burst of white fog at the high points of the night: the peak of the hora, the biggest song drop, or the moment the guest of honor walks in. Our crew runs them and times each burst with the DJ and the lighting.

Like every effect, a CO2 jet stands only where the venue allows it, with space around it, and only after the venue has said yes.

Light haze gives a moving-head beam its shape, and dance-floor lighting is what makes a low cloud glow and sparks stand out on camera. The effects are planned with the uplighting, the moving lights and the LED wall, so every cue looks like part of one design.

Haze, like the rest, is used only where the venue allows it.

The giant LED robot is an illuminated robot character that joins the guests on the dance floor: a moment of their own for the kids at a Bar or Bat Mitzvah, a second wind at a wedding after dinner, and the start of the party half of a quinceañera.

Your DJ and MC choose its moment, well away from the blessings and the speeches.
