Wedding uplighting

Wash your venue in your wedding's colours

Wireless LED uplights placed around walls, columns and feature trees, tuned precisely to your palette. The fastest way to make a venue feel like it was built for your wedding.

The effect

Uplighting is the venue transformer

Uplighting is the most underrated tool in wedding design. A dozen well-placed uplights can turn a beige function room into a warm amber glow, wash sandstone walls in soft blush, or pick out the fig trees around a garden ceremony as the sun drops. Because the light travels up the walls rather than across the room, it adds height and drama without glare — your guests see the venue transformed but never see the source. We colour-match to your palette exactly, not "close enough": bring us a swatch from your invitations or florals and we'll tune each fixture to it. Amber and warm white dominate wedding requests for good reason, but the full colour range is there if your style calls for it. Explore the rest of our wedding lighting options to see what pairs well.

The gear

Wireless, battery-powered, invisible cabling

Our wedding uplights are battery-powered and wireless, which changes everything about where they can go. No cables taped across doorways, no power boards behind curtains — each fixture runs all night on its own battery and is controlled remotely, so we can place them exactly where the design needs them, including spots a cabled unit could never reach. That means uplights ringing a marquee's perimeter, tucked into garden beds, or lining a heritage wall your venue won't let anyone tape cable to. Every unit is IP64 rated for outdoor use and tested and tagged. We set the scenes in advance — ceremony, dinner, party — and transitions happen on cue without anyone touching a thing.

The layer

The finishing layer under festoon or canopy

Uplighting rarely works alone at a wedding — it's the layer that completes a design. Under a festoon ceiling, amber uplights carry the warmth down the walls so the whole room glows rather than just the roofline. Around a fairy light canopy, they add depth at the edges where the canopy fades. And at garden and hinterland venues across the Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Brisbane and the Northern Rivers, uplights on trees extend your reception's footprint into the landscape as darkness falls. Because we design, deliver and install everything as one package, adding uplighting to an existing quote is usually a modest bump for a dramatic gain. We'll always tell you honestly how many fixtures your space actually needs — no padding.

Frequently asked

As a rule of thumb, one uplight every 2 to 3 metres of wall gives an even wash — most reception spaces need 10 to 20 fixtures. Send us your venue and we'll give you an exact count, not a guess.

Yes — each fixture is colour-tunable across the full spectrum. Send a swatch from your invitations, florals or bridesmaid dresses and we'll match it precisely during setup.

Our battery fixtures run 8 to 12 hours at wedding brightness levels — comfortably past the last dance. We always install with battery headroom, and the units are checked and charged before every event.

Yes. We pre-program scenes — soft amber for dinner, deeper tones for the dance floor — and transitions happen remotely on cue. Your coordinator or MC can trigger them, or we schedule them in advance.

Beautifully. All fixtures are IP64 weather-rated, so garden beds, tree lines and marquee perimeters are all fair game. Uplit fig trees are one of our most requested looks at hinterland venues.
