Neon Signs & Rustic Weddings

Kaylie, on April 13, 2019 at 8:12 AM Posted in Style and Décor 0 7

Hi! My wedding venue is a historic barn on a small hobby farm. I am OBSESSED with the custom neon sign (with the couple's name, wedding hashtag, or a cute saying about love eg. Crazy in Love, 'Til death do us party, etc.). Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make this modern pop work in such a rustic venue? Does anyone plan on doing a wooden pallete back drop with some flowers/drapery and also a neon sign? I don't see this much and I'm not sure if its fitting.


Also on photo booths, is it ok not to hire a professional photo booth company and just use a back drop as sort of a "photo-op" where people can take their own photos? Don't know if this is tacky or not.

    I think the DIY photobooth is fine as long as there is some sort of signage, I think they tend to go overlooked at weddings. Also don’t be like my cousin and put it in a dark corner where nobody can see it 😂

    Thank you! & yes I plan on putting it by the bar or right off of the dance floor so it won't be missed- not about to spend 100s on a neon sign that won't be seen! & I agree that some sort of signage would be helpful too

    Hi Kaylie! I'm the same, I love the look of neon signs!! I think it could look really great in a rustic setting, especially if you go with the floral drapery!! It would look really boho chic!Smiley love

    I searched on Pinterest for some ideas that you could get inspiration from.

    Kaylie you can do it! you should do it!

    Another poster is having 2 DIY photo booths to ensure everyone gets a turn.

    You can do 3 signs one over head table 2 (1 each photobooth)

    You could make the sign white, or a color that complements your color palette.


    Also a lot of people create their own backdrop for a photo space.
