Looking for a Neon Sign for your wedding?

How to Incorporate Neon Signs into a Garden or Outdoor Wedding

Planning a beautiful garden or outdoor wedding in Australia? Want to add a unique design element that’s both romantic and unforgettable? Enter: custom LED neon signs.

From sun-drenched vineyards to backyard ceremonies under the stars, neon signs are becoming a go-to feature for couples wanting to add a personalised, modern touch to their outdoor celebration. Here’s how to style them perfectly in an open-air setting.

1. Highlight Your Ceremony Space

Make your vows even more magical by placing a glowing neon sign behind your arbour or floral installation. Phrases like “It Was Always You” or your names in cursive script add warmth and personal flair to your ceremony backdrop — especially as the sun starts to set.

Tip: Go for soft white, blush, or warm hues to complement natural surroundings without overpowering them.

2. Frame It with Greenery or Blooms

One of the best ways to style neon in a garden wedding is to nestle it within foliage or flowers. Mount your sign on a hedge wall, wooden frame, or freestanding backdrop and decorate with fresh greenery, florals, or pampas for a picture-perfect look.

It creates an elegant contrast between nature and light, perfect for photo ops and reception ambiance.

3. Light Up the Reception Area

As night falls, neon signs become a functional and decorative lighting solution. Use them to:

  • Illuminate your bar with a “Let’s Party” or “Cheers” sign
  • Draw attention to the dessert table
  • Mark the entrance to your reception space

Bonus: they’re amazing in golden hour and night-time photos!

4. Style a Custom Photo Wall

Give your guests a dedicated spot to snap pics with a glowing, personalised photo wall. Use your wedding hashtag, last name, or a fun phrase in neon and mount it on a backdrop or frame that fits your outdoor setting.

Think vintage doors, rustic fencing, macrame hangings, or greenery walls — the options are endless.

5. Repurpose It for the Afterparty or Your Home

One of the best parts about LED neon signs? You can use them long after the wedding. Whether you hang it in your home or reuse it for your engagement party, afterparty or anniversary, your sign becomes a lasting reminder of your day.
