daytime wedding question

if any of you had or are having a daytime wedding will you be using uplighting at all or any other lighting the dj might have?

TIA

Re: daytime wedding question

YES we are doing uplighting. We will draw the shades in our room for the full effect!

Re: daytime wedding question

I am having a daytime wedding and not using lighting...I want it to have a garden party kind of feel since there are huge windows right over the lake.

I also cant really justify another big expense like that because we are saving for a house too

Re: daytime wedding question

We also do not plan on using any lighting.

Re: daytime wedding question

I am using uplighting only becasue it is included in the hall package.
I am not paying for any lighting whatsoever lol to try and cut down on costs.

Re: daytime wedding question

I am going to be using lighting but only because the RH has LCDs built in already- but I wouldn't have paid extra for a daytime wedding.

Re: daytime wedding question

I'm just worried that with no lighting it won't have that party feel to it and everyone will just be sitting there.

I asked the same question a while back. Check out this thread -- some people posted pics of how their uplighting looks.

IMO, it depends on the RH and how much natural light there is in the room. We picked our place because of the big windows and the view, so we're not doing uplighting.

Thank you!!!!!!!!

No we aren't paying extra for it. Our DJ Actually told us there was no point, and he wasn't gunna try to sell it to us just to sell it to us and make an extra buck like a lot of other companies do.

Same here! One major factor I fell in love with my hall is the lighting!

Exactly what my DJ said! There's a skylight and a bunch of windows so he told us it doesn't make sense. I guess depending on your room, it might be fun sitll

Yea if it has no windows or shades then I could see it working, but if there is natural light flooding in no point.
