Two Sydney newlyweds have had a wedding reception entrance that will forever be remembered for all the wrong reasons.

As the bride and groom lit up the dance floor on Saturday night, a floral arrangement went up in flames, triggering the sprinkler system.

A dry sparkular machine is believed to have started the blaze at The Renaissance wedding venue in Lidcombe.

A TikTok video humorously captioned “the wedding was fire” features a couple joyfully dancing with numerous machines launching sparks in the background.

Meanwhile flames that took hold on a decorative arch are growing quickly and the drummers and other musicians keep playing. 

A second video shows the sprinklers continuing to douse water and the floor looking soaked.

The reception had to be cancelled.
