What CO2 Guns actually is

A CO2 gun releases a short burst of cold carbon dioxide that turns into a dense white plume. It is loud, it is brief, and it is gone in seconds, which is exactly why it works on a dance floor. Nothing lands on your guests and nothing is left on the floor. Your DJ holds them and fires on the drop rather than on a schedule.

When to use it

Late, and only when the floor is already full. CO2 is a reaction effect rather than a decoration: it amplifies a room that is already going and it falls flat in a half empty one. Save it for the peak of the night, or for a hype moment like a wedding party entrance or a cultural dance where the energy is already high.

Will your venue allow it?

CO2 leaves no residue and involves no flame, so approval is usually straightforward. The two questions venues ask are about noise, because the burst is sharp, and about ceiling height, since the plume rises. Tell us your room and we will confirm it before your date.

Good Questions

CO2 Guns questions couples ask

What are CO2 guns at a wedding?

A CO2 gun is a handheld device that releases a short burst of carbon dioxide, which turns into a thick white plume over the dance floor. It leaves no residue and clears within seconds. At Weddings Unlimited, CO2 guns are part of Magic Moments at $395 and are fired by your own DJ on a cue from your timeline.

Are CO2 guns safe indoors?

Yes. A CO2 gun has no flame and leaves nothing on the floor or on your guests, which makes it one of the easier effects to get approved at an indoor venue. Weddings Unlimited still clears it with your venue before your date.

How much do CO2 guns cost at a wedding?

CO2 guns are part of Magic Moments at Weddings Unlimited, which is $395 for special effects and lighting added to your wedding, and the price drops when it is bundled with photography, videography, DJ and MC, photo booth or coordination.

When is the best time to use CO2 at a reception?

Late in the night, once the dance floor is already full. CO2 amplifies energy that is already in the room rather than creating it, so it works best at the peak of the party or during a high energy entrance.
