Light Up Your Wedding With These Dreamy Décor Ideas

Modern Wedding Posted: July 30, 2020

Want to make your wedding shine? One of the best ways to add a little sparkle to your big day is incorporating lights into your wedding décor. Think delicate strings of fairy lights, soft flickering candles, or dramatic exposed lightbulbs. Whatever your theme is, there is a wedding light décor to suit your style! 

Via Julia and Evita

Starry Night...

Make the ceiling of your venue twinkle like the night sky with strings of overhanging fairy lights. This lighting will wrap your guests in a warm glow and make them feel like they're sitting under a starry night sky. What could be more romantic than that?

Flickering Flame...

One of the best ways to create soft, romantic lighting at your wedding reception is by using taper candles! They look extremely elegant and give off a glow of light that will add a sentimental intimacy to your celebration. Taper candles look particularly beautiful when they're surrounded by an abundance of luscious foliage as well.

Be My Guest...

On the subject of candles, another classy way to incorporate an open flame into your venue styling is through utilising candelabras on your tables. Not only does this feature provide romantic lighting, but it'll also give your whole venue a charming fairytale vibe. Because really, who can look at a candelabra without thinking of Beauty And The Beast?

Retro Disco Ball...

Nothing says "it's time to get the party started" quite like a disco ball! Adding a disco ball to your reception venue will let your guests know they're in for a fun night ahead with plenty of good tunes and hours of dancing. A disco ball also works wonders if you want your reception to take on a nostalgic retro feel!

Lovely Lanterns...

If you're looking for a fun way to incorporate lights into your wedding décor, look no further than lanterns! This dynamic option will not only bathe your reception venue in soft lighting, it'll add shape to the whole room.

Dazzling Chandelier...

Having a chandelier as part of your wedding décor creates a completely timeless and elegant vibe that will leave your guests feeling completely enchanted. So, why not elevate that feeling with a chandelier made entirely out of fairy lights?! The addition of a fairy light chandelier will capture all of the enchantment of a classic crystal chandelier while adding a captivating element of twinkle.
