Don’t forget about lighting!

If you really want your venue to pop and stand out in everyone’s mind, think about uplights. This relatively inexpensive add-on can really bring life to your venue. Whether you are getting married in a tent overlooking the water or mountains, or you are dancing the night away in a beautiful venue, uplights can spice things up when the sun goes down.

There are two types of uplights, the ones that use the traditional halogen bulbs and the ones that use LED technology. Both have pros and cons but either can do the job. Halogen uplights are less expensive (to rent or purchase) and put off a great amount of light, but they can get very hot and are limited to whatever color gel (the color sheet placed on top) you start with. LED uplights are more expensive to rent (purchasing these are probably out of the question, a decent system with wires and a controller can cost $1000 – $2000) and inexpensive ones may not provide the amount of light needed, however they have more flexibility in color selection and a lot of cool effects.
