I had my first at my last Wedding !!!
And they didn't tell me until the day, and they only time to do so was after dark too
My Tip to future B&Gs would be to have either VERY long ones or two per guest as many had gone out by the time they were all lit, so having two they could use one to light their second one
Anyway, here's what I got, its the first I processed as a 'Taster' so I'm hoping others are better when I get around to them - 20mm lens at f2.8, 2000 ISO and 1/60th

Did you get the couple to walk through the middle? I ask because it's a tough one to get, hence one I prefer to get the couple to stand relatively still and get everyone to gather round.
Yes Ryan - I was in a rush to get my usual 3 Tasters out and didn't really look at the rest, but they did walk right up to me - by which time hardly any sparklers were still working

Thanks.
We were at a wedding on Saturday, and I had my first experience of the sparkler departure. Slow burning sparklers sound like a very good idea, as does doing the shot before it's pitch black - both of which didn't help either the official tog or me.

50mm @ f2.4, 1/60 ISO3200, and probably about 1.5 stops underexposed.
Looks like it was a bit cloudy too
