Bubbles are a whimsical and beautiful addition to any wedding. You can use them either as the bride and groom make their exit from the festivities in place of rice, bird seed or flower petals, or you can have it as part of the decorations for your wedding reception. However you choose to use the bubble machine, renting one to fill the air with fun will be one of the most memorable decisions for both you and your guests.

Instructions
1
Check with your DJ to find out if he has one available to rent along with his services. Many DJs enjoy the addition of fun lighting and gadgets to their services, so there's a good chance that they may also have bubble machines available to bring along.
2
Shop around to make sure that renting bubble machines for your wedding is really the most economical way to go. There are many models available, but most rentals start at around $50. If you choose to purchase one and have no use for it after the party, give it to a friend who has children, or store it for birthdays, anniversaries and New Year's Eve parties.
3
Rent from a company that takes proper care of their equipment. Bubble machines can get quite messy if not cleaned well after an event. A clogged up bubble machine can either simply refuse to work, or even worse, create a sudsy mess all over your reception floor.
4
Ask if your order can be included in the delivery of all of your other equipment rentals or if there will be a separate charge. If you rent from the same company as your caterer or DJ, they may be able to simply include the bubble machine with their equipment and you can avoid the delivery fee altogether.
5
Find out if the rental company will provide the bubble solution or if you will need to purchase this on your own.
6
Inquire about fun extras with your bubble machine like the ability to add essential oils to the bubble solution to create a wonderfully scented fairytale atmosphere.
Tips & Warnings
Place the bubble machine in a location close to the ceiling if at all possible. This will allow the bubbles to fall gracefully and disperse around the room instead of just filling one area.
Dancing in a sea of bubbles may sound romantic and fun, but when the bubbles pop on the dance floor, they will make a slippery mess that will cause people to slip and maybe even be injured. Keep this in mind when placing the bubble machine.
