Color Selection
Selecting a color for the signs at a wedding is essential. My favorite idea is to use one of two colors - warm white or red.
Warm White: Warm white neon signs are prevalent for wedding events. The color is warming, inviting, and calming, suited to neon name signs. View our warm white neon signs.
Red: Red is the color of passion and love, and this color would be a feature in wedding reception decor. It is suited to neon love hearts. View our red neon signs.
Wedding Decor with a Custom Neon Sign
Nothing compares to creating a custom neon sign for a unique and personalized touch. This allows for complete design control of sizing, font styles, colors, and the design of the backboard. It's possible to use a custom photo of the couple, the couple's initials, new surname, or any design desired.
Custom neon signs can be tailored to match the wedding theme decor perfectly.
