How to Light Up Your Wedding Day With a Custom LED Neon Sign

Weddings in 2025 are all about creating moments that feel uniquely yours. And while florals, drapery, and lighting have long played their part in setting the mood, there’s a new guest stealing the spotlight: the custom LED neon wedding sign.

These glowing designs have become a modern wedding essential—not just as eye-catching decor, but as storytelling elements. Whether it’s your shared last name, a favorite quote, or a playful phrase that speaks to your relationship, a neon sign adds a radiant, personalized touch that photographs beautifully and lives on long after the vows.

But beyond the visual impact, LED neon signs offer something even more valuable: versatility, safety, and ease of use. Compared to traditional glass neon, LED options are lightweight, energy-efficient, and cool to the touch—making them ideal for indoor or outdoor setups and stress-free event planning.

In short: they’re a wedding glow-up in every sense of the word.

The Power of Personalization: What to Put on Your Sign

The beauty of a custom LED neon sign is that it’s completely up to you. Your design can be deeply romantic, cheekily playful, or totally offbeat—it’s your love story, told in light.

Here are some of the most popular (and most photogenic) ideas:

  • Your names or initialsThe Walkers, A + J, or simply Mr. & Mrs.
  • A wedding hashtag – Perfect for photo booth setups or tabletop guestbooks.
  • A favorite quote or vow excerpt – Think “You are my sun, my moon, and all my stars.”
  • Fun, short phrases“Crazy in Love”, “Better Together”, or “Till Death” have become wedding neon classics.


Want to go bolder? Yellowpop offers full customization of text, font, color, and size—so whether you're leaning toward soft script in warm white or a bold typeface in electric pink, the final sign will reflect your style down to the last detail.

And here’s the bonus: your neon sign doesn’t end with the wedding. It becomes part of your home—a glowing memory of the day you said I do.

Where to Place Your Custom LED Neon Wedding Sign

Placement can make or break the impact of your sign. Thankfully, LED neon signs are lightweight and easy to install—giving you the freedom to get creative with your setup.

Some of the most impactful placements include:

  • Ceremony backdrops – Frame your vows beneath a glowing message.
  • Reception head tables – Highlight the couple’s spot with a sign that reflects your new shared identity.
  • Bar or dessert tables – Pair a fun phrase with your cocktails or cake display.
  • Photo booth or lounge area – Add ambiance and give guests a picture-perfect backdrop.
  • Outdoor spaces or tented receptions – Yellowpop signs are made with durable, indoor/outdoor materials.


Pro tip: use your sign to anchor your wedding aesthetic. Whether your vibe is romantic, retro, minimalist, or maximalist, a custom LED sign sets the tone and pulls everything together visually.

Custom Meets Convenient: Why LED Wins Over Traditional Neon

While vintage neon has nostalgic charm, it’s not always wedding-friendly. Traditional neon signs are made of fragile glass, require high-voltage electricity, and are prone to heat and breakage—not ideal for a high-energy, high-emotion day like your wedding.

LED neon, on the other hand, checks every box for modern couples:

  • Cool to the touch – Safe around guests (and little ones).
  • Energy-efficient – Lights up all night with minimal power usage.
  • Lightweight and easy to hang – No complex rigging required.
  • Dimmable with remote options – Control the glow to match the mood.
  • Durable and reusable – Designed to last well beyond the wedding day.


Yellowpop takes this convenience even further. Our signs are made with high-quality materials that include CertiLED™ technology, in addition to straightforward mounting kit, and are backed by responsive support—so you can focus on celebrating, not troubleshooting.
