Choose the Perfect Lighting for Your Wedding Ceremony & Reception 

A wedding is one of the most important milestones in a couple’s life. From planning the rehearsal dinner to the ceremony and reception, there are about a million little details to organize and customize in order to reflect your personality and love story. 

The flowers, music, entertainment, venue, and attire all come together to create a beautiful day celebrating tying the knot in front of family and friends. It can be both exhilarating and exhausting to plan down to the tiniest detail of your wedding day. 

One detail that you don’t want to overlook is the lighting for your special day. Seacoast Events can help you choose lighting options that will enhance your decor and set the mood for the event you have been dreaming of!

Uplighting Options 

Brides Magazine online defines uplighting as “the placement of individual light sources at the base of architectural details or points of interest, typically around the perimeter of a space, to draw attention to those details.” 

This lighting technique is often credited with creating a romantic glow that emphasizes the décor elements of your ceremony and reception venue. Seacoast Events offers uplighting that is not only an affordable way to set the scene with a variety of colors and tones but a unique way to bring out the architectural details and decor of the venue you so carefully chose. 

Our expert lighting attendant can be onsite​ during your reception for any color changes or last-minute adjustments. Additionally, our wireless lighting fixtures and remote-controlled technology allow for seamless transitions from one color to the next, such as marking the conclusion of dinner and the opening of the dance floor.

Bistro Lighting Options 

Also known as string lighting, festoon lighting, or cafe lighting, bistro lighting can be customized for your venue and how you would like the space to set a mood. 

Lauren Kay, a Wedding Journalist for The Knot, a customizable wedding planning website, explains how important lighting is to your event. “When done well, lighting can make everything look better, from your wedding cake to your guests. The right kind of illumination will also get those details you spent hours on noticing.” 

Bistro lighting provides a classic, timeless look with a warm glow to illuminate a wedding dining area as well as dance floors and dessert tables. This style of lighting is often hung over a reception area, but can also go over a dance floor, patio, or entrance area. Typically, Seacoast Events lighting technicians can install bistro lighting above an area in a particular pattern chosen by the couple. 

Seacoast Events also offers other lighting options such as projections of the couple’s names, date of wedding, or logo. Then there’s furniture illumination and lanterns that can illuminate and set the mood you desire at your wedding ceremony and reception.
