Neon Signs for Your Nuptials: How to Light Up Your Day

When it comes to wedding details we love the most, signage rises to the top (quite literally, it can hang). And if you’re a particularly creative couple, you can have so much fun coming up with sayings and puns that will make your guests light up. Starting with your unique hashtag and ending with something sweet and sassy to display over your dessert or late-night bites table, your signs build your vibe – and they can keepsake your vows, too! We’ve seen some of our real wedding couples distilling iconic lyrics from their first dance song, and if that can be done, it’s not hard to imagine phraseology from your “I promise” prose being used as a statement photo marquee for your reception. 

There are a ton of options for your nuptials signage – from wooden signs to wire ones, cotton-cloth backdrops to calligraphed canvases – but in the past year or two, neon, illuminating iterations have become “I Do” favorites. Not only are they pretty and trendy, they’re also pretty versatile. What you can put up in lights at your wedding, can easily be taken down, packed up, and used in your home for years to come. After all, what at-home bar is truly ready to entertain without a #dontgothirsty or #butfirstdrinks sign??! And L-O-V-E calligraphed in pink can be used in a future baby’s nursery… just sayin!

You can absolutely reach out to the plethora of custom neon businesses for your event needs (especially if you’re leaning into last name personalization), but we can help if you just want some LED to accompany your BDE [best day ever]. All of the neon signs in our Style Me Pretty Collection come with pre-drilled holes or built-in loops for easy hanging, so all you’ll need is a ladder, some fishing line (or tulle ribbon which is always 😍), and just a little bit of labor to put your lewk in place! 

Here are just a few vignettes to consider with our signs in mind.

Of course, you’re the designer of your day, so whatever magic you’re after for your own happily ever after – we’re just here to light the way…

‘But First Drinks’ Light Up Sign

If the morning didn’t start with a bridal suite bar topped with a stunning bottle of bubbly, enough coupes for you and the crew, and a little arrangement to set the floral tone for your day, did it even happen?! Did we mention how photogenic our BFD sign really is? It’s pretty perfect, especially for a chic white-on-white color palette.

For all of your bars.

Don’t Go Thirsty Neon Sign

Not that your guests need any heads up on hydrating, but this sign is still a sweet reminder. It’s always nice, too, if you can offer some mocktails alongside your signature cocktail – in case anyone doesn’t want to imbibe on your big day (which is totally cool!). A little pre-ceremony hydration station with infused spa waters is a great look for guests. Same goes for the after party – a little detoxing display of water or some electrolyte-enriched elixirs can go a long way for staving off those post-wedding hangovers…

Neon Pink Love Sign

Love. It’s what brought this day to life, right? So, hang this one above your escort display or mix it in with the fun (our fave kind of facade involves florals). The neon is a great counterpoint to the vignette, plus it draws everyone in. That’s pretty major, too, when you’re considering your guest book. If people don’t know where yours is, they won’t sign it! #TRUESTORY!
