Your first dance, on a cloudDancing on the Clouds for weddings in Texas and Arizona

What Dancing on the Clouds actually is

A low fog machine sits at the edge of the dance floor and lays a thin layer of fog across it. Unlike a haze or smoke machine, the fog stays down at ankle height instead of rising into the room, so it reads as a cloud under your feet rather than a fog bank over your guests. Your DJ starts it right before your first dance and it clears on its own once the song ends.

When to use it

The first dance, every time. It is also a strong choice for a parent dance or any slow song you want photographed properly, because your photographer gets a bright, clean floor to shoot against instead of dark wood or carpet. If you are only picking one effect for the quiet half of the night, this is the one.

Will your venue allow it?

This is usually the easiest effect to get approved. Because the fog stays low and does not rise to the ceiling, it rarely reaches the detectors, which is why venues that ban standard haze machines often still allow it. We confirm it with your venue before your date, and if the room has an unusual detector setup we will tell you before you pay for anything.

Fire code differs by city and by building. In Texas it sits with the Texas State Fire Marshal's Office and in Arizona with the Arizona Office of the State Fire Marshal. If your venue wants documentation, ask us and we will get it to them.
