2. ULTRA VIOLET UPLIGHTING
Illuminate your reception venue with ultra violet uplighting! Uplights add ambiance and a vibrant wash of color for the walls. For a subtle touch, just use a few uplights placed on pillars or other accent areas in your venue. Otherwise, for a more dramatic look, place uplights 5-10 feet apart around the entire room. Here are two photos from our clients showing the subtle versus dramatic look with uplighting. P.S. You can rent uplights online for just $19/each + free shipping nationwide!
3. ULTRA VIOLET DANCE FLOOR
Ready to go all out with ultra violet? Use actual ultra violet lights for your dance floor! These are commonly referred to as UV lights or black lights. Everyone on the dance floor will glow in the dark, and the entire area will be washed in an purple hue! All you need is one black light to illuminate the dance floor. Just plug it in, set on a table, and aim towards the dance floor. Rent black lights online for just $99 + free shipping nationwide! This is definitely a great way to add a unique and fun effect for your reception.
So that’s a look at 3 ways to incorporate Pantone’s 2018 color of the year into your wedding color palette. We hope you enjoyed these ideas! Until next time, happy wedding planning!
