Sooo unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably seen all the 🤘🤘🤘major wedding neon that’s been happening lately. And really, we mean no disrespect by saying that - if you’ve been living under a rock and this is BRAND NEW INFORMATION for you, then an official welcome to the party!!! We’re so happy to have you finally, because this is a trend we honestly can’t see dying out (or should we say having its brightness dimmed) any time soon.
It’s actually really funny, because since Season 3 of Queer Eye dropped a few weeks ago, I’ve been rewatching all my favorite episodes and obsessing over the vintage neon hubcaps that Bobby and Burner Jason hacked (beautifully) in Season 2. I secretly want to scavenge some of my own high-style finds and go to a fun custom neon place to make magic of my own… But that’s for another day. If you're crafty, though, by allllll means, design your own neon for that special day! And bring it back to live in your home together.
Today, we’re just talking about all the gorg ways you can work neon signage into your wedding day. Oh! And if you can only think of Big Daddy and “Live Nudes” when you imagine neon decor, then you best start wiping that look from your memory, because the neon examples that awesome companies like Echo Neon Studio and Sketch & Etch Creative are coming up with are cool AF. They’re whimsy, they’re decorative, they’re engaging, they bring in great pops of color, and they’re total conversation pieces.

We rounded up 12 of the best neon snaps we’ve double tapped recently, lots from Down Under, not even kidding, Aussies truly run the wedding world these days… But before we jump into all the ah-maze inspo, here are just a few thought starters if you’re stumped about where you can inject some neon into your nuptials.

Yes, flower walls look sexy with some bright, splashy neon happening on top the blooms, but we love how couples can get cute wifey/hubby/in love/married AF signs that are easy to hold and look 👌 in pictures. These two are epic.

This is a promise, and you can hold us to it. If you don’t think the presence of a neon sign can turn up your just-married portraits exponentially, then we’ll just have to wallow under a HUGE neon 😭 emoji. You can go with the two of your names, your new shared last name, your wedding hashtag, or, our favorite, a perfect quote that either talks about love or your weirdness together #loveit.

If you’re ‘crazy in love,’ it deserves to be broadcast everywhere. Like your sweetheart table, surrounded by complementary flowers, and perfectly framing your few first kisses as newlyweds. This can also work for lounge spaces and stunning escort card displays.
The whole thing here is just to have fun with it! Peep all our current loves👇
