You might also be able to track down an ice sculptor in your area by browsing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nica.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The National Ice Carving Association<\/a>, which lists some of its members by state. The site includes international members as well as those in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Ice carvers suggest that you give them call as soon as you decide to have an ice sculpture at your reception (most sculptures will ask for at least four weeks\u2019 lead time). Once you do, they\u2019ll request a deposit to secure your date on their calendar.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes they\u2019ll ask you to choose between either a hand-carved sculpture of crystal-clear ice (remarkably for its fiery, diamond-like sparkle), or one of the more affordable molded types, which can be tinted to suit the room or reception theme \u2026 and include beautiful embedded items, like roses. But for weddings, most sculptors prefer the superior clarity of hand-carved creations.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44466\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44466\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-44466\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/deadbb16c95030ad95c2b9648c5c27fd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/deadbb16c95030ad95c2b9648c5c27fd.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/deadbb16c95030ad95c2b9648c5c27fd-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44466\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-44466\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/deadbb16c95030ad95c2b9648c5c27fd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/deadbb16c95030ad95c2b9648c5c27fd.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/deadbb16c95030ad95c2b9648c5c27fd-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/noscript> Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"subtitle\">What It Costs<\/h2>\n<p>Typically, a sculptor will suggest that you browse through their online ice gallery for ideas and pricing, but custom design requests are usually welcome. Price quotes often include on-time delivery and set up, and a self-contained drip tray \u2014 but clarify this in advance to avoid surprises.<\/p>\n<p>The ice sculptures are usually carved out of 300 pound ice blocks about 40\u2033 high, 20\u2033 wide and 10\u2033 deep. So-called \u201cone-block ice sculptures\u201d are the cheapest, but many popular wedding designs such as \u201ckissing swans\u201d and leaping dolphins require more time, effort and ice \u2014 which naturally costs more. Expect to pay somewhere in the range of $400.00 to 600.00 for a typical complete package that includes delivery and set-up, fresh greenery and a lighted pedestal tray. Add-ons like out-of-zone delivery areas will hike up the price a little more, and don\u2019t forget to account for sales tax!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44467\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44467\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-44467\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e-598x800.jpg 598w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e-500x669.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44467\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-44467\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e-598x800.jpg 598w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/37fbd658f7425615da95e2cf68a7521e-500x669.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/noscript> Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Ice sculptures set up indoors will last approximately 5-8 hours.
