Wedding Neon Sign Ideas

Thinking about doing a neon sign for your wedding? These have been so popular lately and I don’t see them going out of style anytime soon.

I went to a wedding last summer with not one, but two neon signs! One was used behind the couple at the head table. Another made for a cute backdrop in the photo booth area.

And those are just two areas at a wedding where you can decorate using neon signs. Keep reading to discover more ideas for wedding neon signs and how to style them.

Ceremony Neon Wedding Sign Ideas

It’s popular these days to have decorations for your wedding ceremony, especially if the ceremony isn’t going to be in a church with an altar.

Lots of couples do arches and floral displays to make it seem like they are getting married at an altar. As part of this, you can use a neon sign in your wedding ceremony decor.

I love how in the photo above, the couple has their neon sign displayed on a stand surrounded by candles. This let’s you move the sign around to different areas in the reception when the ceremony is over.

Reception Wedding Neon Sign Ideas

There are so many areas at a wedding reception to display a neon sign – and I’ll cover those areas shortly.

But can you have a neon sign that is just hanging on a wall or against a backdrop as part of the overall, general reception decor? Yes, absolutely.

Don’t feel as though your neon sign has to be somewhere specific. If there’s an empty spot at your reception that needs some decoration, this can be the perfect place to show off a wedding neon sign.

If your wedding is going to have a guest book area, gift table or favor table, these make for the perfect place to display a neon sign. I love how the photo above shows the neon sign against an outdoor photo area with favors on the side.

You can get away with using smaller neon signs in these areas which will help keep down on the costs. Remember that the larger your neon sign, the more expensive it will be to either rent or buy.

Wedding Neon Signs For Seating Charts & Table Numbers

A lot people these days are getting creative with their wedding seating chart display and honestly, why not? It’s a fun way to add some style to your wedding reception while informing your guests where to sit.

If your seating chart is going to have a backdrop or an arch, why not hang a neon sign from it? It could say something regarding the seating (e.g. “take your seat”), a basic love quote (e.g. “better together”, “always & forever”) or even your last name.

You can also do neon signs as table numbers – yes that’s a thing! It’s a fun way to add a bit of a glow to your reception tables.

A lot of weddings these days go all out on the food. I went to a wedding recently that had a full appetizer spread laid out against a beautiful greenery backdrop. There wasn’t a neon sign against the greenery, but there easily could have been.

Many couples spend a lot of money on their wedding cake and want to make the most of the moment. If you want cute pictures of your cake cutting, consider using a neon sign in the background.

This makes for a beautiful wedding reception decoration in general. When the cake is done, you’ll have the neon sign in the background to use in other photos.

Wedding Neon Sign Ideas For The Dance Floor

Are you going to do decorations on your dance floor? It’s not always something couples think of, but can really set the scene at your wedding.

Photo Booth & Photo Backdrop Wedding Neon Signs

With selfies and Instagram these days, many couples are putting together an area with a pretty backdrop specifically designed for taking photos. There are so many creative ways to do this, but it all starts with a nice backdrop.

Wedding Panels

The photo above shows a wood arch backdrop but you can also use greenery walls, floral walls, cloth curtains, shimmer curtains & more. Check out some DIY and pre-made backdrop ideas here: 10 Wedding Neon Sign Backdrop Ideas That Are Insanely Popular

Then you’ll want to decorate in front of the backdrop with things like a couch, chairs, flowers, lights and of course your neon sign!

Make sure to hang the neon sign high enough that it’s not covered by people in the photos. Signs that read more horizontally might work better than a vertical neon sign. But you’ll have to play around with the measurements to get it just right.

Wedding Flower Walls

Alternatively, you can also hire out a photo booth for the night. Many photo booths these days are “open air” which basically means you rent out the camera & printing equipment to be setup wherever you wish at your reception.

You can setup the camera in front of a plain wall. Or consider doing a pretty photo backdrop with a funny wedding neon sign.

Sweetheart Table Wedding Neon Sign Ideas

Sweetheart tables are a great place to decorate at your reception – you can really go all out!

Since it’s just the two of you sitting there, why not do a backdrop as a way to “frame” the sweetheart table? And if you’re going to do a backdrop, then you’ll have an easy place to hang a neon sign.

A lot of couples like to use a neon sign that says their last name or initials behind their sweetheart table. I think this makes for really romantic and personal wedding photos, such as the one shown above.

Head Table Wedding Neon Sign Ideas

Similar to a sweetheart table is a head table, where all of your wedding party sits to eat during the reception. You can also have a neon sign on display here for a unique touch of decor.
