What is Your Opinion of Uplighting?

A ton of people have raved and recommended uplighting to me but I have been on the fence about it. I am worried that it will make things look that color in my pictures and I also do not want my wedding to look like a club or sweet 16 birthday party.

A ton of people have raved and recommended uplighting to me but I have been on the fence about it. I am worried that it will make things look that color in my pictures and I also do not want my wedding to look like a club or sweet 16 birthday party. I have seen pictures of pale pink uplighting that was pretty, but I do not like the darker colors. The DJs that we have met with all offer it in their packages so we would not have to go out of our way if we wanted to get it. Here is my reception room. It is kind of dim, so I am not sure how it will be during our evening reception. What is your opinion on uplighting?

    Lol don't freak out. Good luck with everything, and don't forget to post pictures (especially of the colors you chose, and the uplighting) when it's over! Smiley smile

    Honestly....I'm not a fan. I confess. I think it can be too overpowering or kinda gimmicky, and take the focus off of everything else that you probably put a lot more time and effort into. I've seen brides stress so much about color coordinating everything just to have it all be tinted by the light and the color not matter. I personally would just go with lighting more like the chandelier light if they have it than any colors. It would brighten up the room while adding a warm inviting kind of glow rather than draw a ton of attention. That's just my personal taste though.

    Can you get a natural color for uplighting like white? If that is the case I will go with that. I was not aware you could do that!

    All of our lighting was either pink or amber.
