When Sarah and Ben Holbrook celebrated their wedding in Brisbane, they wanted a detail that would make their day feel unforgettable and uniquely theirs. They chose a custom neon wedding sign that not only lit up their reception but also became one of the most talked-about parts of the night.
The Venue
The Holbrooks hosted their reception at the beautiful Factory 51 in Brisbane’s Coorparoo — a venue known for its rustic brick walls, exposed beams, and warm, intimate atmosphere. With such a character-filled backdrop, they wanted a wedding feature that would blend seamlessly with the space while adding a touch of modern romance.
The Couple’s Brief
Sarah and Ben came to Neon Lanes with a clear vision:
✨ A sign that read “The Holbrooks” in flowing cursive
✨ A warm white glow to match their candlelit tables
✨ Mounted on a clear acrylic backing so the brick wall behind would shine through
Their goal was to create a piece that would serve as the focal point of the reception — perfect for photos, speeches, and of course, their first dance.
The Custom Neon Creation
Our design team worked with the couple to create a 1.6 metre-wide sign, ensuring it was large enough to stand out but still proportioned perfectly for the bridal table backdrop. The sleek script font gave it a timeless elegance, while the warm white glow enhanced the romantic ambience of the venue.
On the day, the sign was hung behind the Holbrooks’ table, framed with cascading greenery and soft florals. As soon as the lights dimmed, the neon came alive, adding a modern twist to the venue’s industrial-chic vibe.
The Big Day
Guests couldn’t resist snapping photos in front of the glowing backdrop, and the neon sign appeared in nearly every professional shot of the evening. From the bridal party entrance to the couple’s first dance, the custom neon wedding sign tied the entire celebration together.
At the end of the night, Sarah and Ben decided to take the sign home — now proudly displayed in their living room as a daily reminder of their wedding day.
