Cold Spark machine

They're pretty much prohibited here in Rhode Island. The Station nightclub fire is still too fresh in peoples' minds and these units, while not exactly pyro, are much too reminiscent of actual pyrotechnics. We can use them outdoors (I don't), but not indoors.
Not questioning you, but has someone actually bought the sparkular units... had sparkular contact the fire marshall, and get shut down by them?

Not that I'm aware of, but Rhode Island is such a small state and everybody knows somebody who was involved in that fire... we can all live without sparks in small spaces.
 
So I used two of the units for a wedding two weeks ago. I gave the photographers and videographer a heads up so that they would be ready to get some great footage. I reached out to the videographer over the weekend to see if I could get my hands on some of it. HE informed he would love to, however he didn't see it to be fair if he gave me some footage when he had brides that have been waiting a year to get their wedding videos. I. was speechless.

Videographers seem to be a special breed of diva. We've run into several who take months to deliver edited product to their clients, even sometimes it devolves into threats of lawsuit to get them off the duff. I think the takeaway lesson here is, don't trust other vendors to provide you promo footage. Do it yourself and get your own footage. I'm sorry that worked out this way for you. That really would've been some choice footage to have.

for my proposal...my wifes sister hired a video company as a gift to us....to video the occasion... i knew nothing about it and would have told her NO.... i knew these guys and had heard horror stories.

anyway... they bring 2 videographers...and they are all over the place ...in the way most of the time...with no gameplan...meanwhile i had a friend video on his phone... months pass... i end up posting my friends video...which was fine...

After 9 months ...AFTER WE HAD BEEN MARRIED FOR 3...lol...we finally get our video.... apparently one of the videographers footage had been corrupted...because it was nowhere to be seen in the final cut...all i got was the footage from the secondary videographer who had blocked my friends cel phone footage a few times... essentially....once it was all said and done...their video was the exact same angles as my friends video....and essentially the same quality... his video actually had more love and heart tho...as he can be heard emotionally responding to the moment... ive never watched their footage again...but i watch his every couple months
