You should start off by thinking about thigns that are usually associated with firefighers – hydrants, hoses, fire hats, fire trucks, ladders, fireworks (or plastic sparklers), fire extinguishers, etc.
Try to think how you can incorporate all of these things into the wedding and decor. Maybe you could get plastic fire hats, turn them upside down and add flowers to them for your centerpieces. Or, maybe you could do a centerpiece involving hot sauce. You can get old hot sauce bottles and use them as a vase – then add some red and orange flowers. Or something like this:

Or flame lights:

For your food you can do a spicy theme – chips & salsa, chipotle chicken, etc.
For your cake you can make it red velvet – then have some fire design.

You can get a wedding dress that has red accents, like this:

The Bridesmaids can wear red dresses with burnt orange sashes.
Here is a link that I found. They have lots of different fireman items here:
