Planning

A neon wedding sign is the way to go for fun decor! Not only has neon lighting been a super popular choice for interiors for a while, but they also make a great decor piece at weddings! Whether it’s a decoration in your venue, or set up for a pretty photo opportunity, these neon lights add a fun and modern element to your day. But where do you find gorgeous neon wedding signs? Can you personalise them? Hire them? How much do they cost? We’re here to help answer all these questions while giving you jaw-dropping inspiration from our real weddings and editorial shoots…Don’t forget to head over to Recycle My Wedding where some neon light decor might be on sale!


A neon wedding sign is a fab modern twist to your day whether your theme is rustic or more industrial!

Purchase or hire?.. That is the question

The good news is that there are lots of great places to hire a neon wedding sign from. Generally, you'll have the sign for around 5 days, which means you've got time to send it back after your wedding day. Whether you hire or buy is totally down to your budget. If you’re happy with a more generic sign like a heart or a cute and fun saying, then perhaps consider hiring. Not only is it cheaper but you don’t end up with a neon sign you have to find a place for. If you're leaning towards a personalised sign then purchase away! If you have room, you can put it on your wall as a permanent reminder of your special day. Whatever you decide, make sure to leave a few months if it's bespoke and always test the lighting at home! You don’t want to leave it to the big day.

How much do they cost?

If you're having a custom neon wedding sign made, expect to pay prices starting at around £50 but naturally the bigger the size and more characters you go, the more expensive your sign will be and can go up to £700+. If you're buying a sign, you can find small ones starting from around £50, with large ones costing you up to around £500+. Hiring a neon wedding sign starts at around £80.

How should you style your neon wedding sign?

Neon wedding signs look epic wherever you place them - as you can see in all our images on this page. But we thought we’d list our fave ways of styling neon signs. A ceremony backdrop at the end of the aisle, in front of a flower wall for a photo backdrop, behind the top table above the bride and groom (especially if it’s a personalised Mr & Mrs sign), a table number/name signs, on a dessert table or cocktail bar inviting guests to dig in, or around any entrances to rooms! There are a variety of ways to work neon lights into your day.

Where do I find neon lights in the UK?

There are plenty of neon light suppliers all over the UK. Alternatively, take the easy option and hire a venue where a neon sign is already part of the decor like The Bell or Preston Court. You may also get lucky if there are any neon signs up for grabs over on Recycle My Wedding - our pre-loved wedding marketplace.
