Uplighting describes the effect using LED par can uplighters and LED bar uplighters to throw light up walls, across ceilings, and also to uplight highlighting features in your venue. The LED Uplighters can be set to nearly any colour imaginable, and I normally have the uplighters all connected to each other and back to a controller where I can change the colour, speed of colour change, or brightness with the push of a few buttons.
Another name by which this is known is Mood Lighting, Uplighters and Colour Wash among others.
Uplighting with uplighters, is a hugely effective way of making even the most beautiful of venues look even more spectacular!
Uplighters use a wide variety of colours and shades, it can change even the plainest rooms into a vibrant new room.
Uplighting also looks spectacular in Marquees!
Some ways the colours have been used in events so far is to uplight with a cool blue or vibrant red for entrances, uplight with a warm orange for meals, uplight with a gorgeous green for a Christmassy feel, or if you have Irish dancers performing a routine. You could also uplight with a romantic pink for first dances, or even an energetic purple!
The uplighter colours can be set to your colour theme, whether it’s the colour of your bridesmaid’s dresses, the colour of the sashes on your chair covers, or even your own favourite colours!
If the Uplighting is used at birthday celebrations, it can be set to the colour of your dress (for females) or even your favourite colour. The uplighters colour can be set as static, changing through two, three or more colours. You can even have a rainbow chase around the room! The uplighter brightness can be instantly adjusted, say for example if you need to lower the lights to show a slideshow or video.
The speed of the uplighter colour changes can also be set, even changing in time to the beat of the music. The uplighters can even strobe for them “hands in the air” moments!
The uses for Uplighting and uplighters to enhance focal features in venues, such as doorways, fireplaces, ornate wall decorations, pillars or suits of armour really bring the features to live! Another use for Uplighting is to also make your wedding cake, or birthday cake a feature, by washing it in any colour of your choice.
The LED par can uplighters or LED bar uplighters can be placed at strategic points around the room to uplight or wash walls, pillars, doorways or features or architecture to bring the room to life.
Photographs, especially flash photography, of Uplighting really do not do the effect and atmosphere justice, but I have included a variety of photographs that I think shows the effect well.
Uplighting is a very cost effective method of transforming your venue to something magical!
The LED par can uplighters and LED bar uplighters that I use are always cool to the touch, so are safe around hanging drapes, children, or even expensive works of art. They are also environmentally friendly, due to LED technology and low wattage, infact the wattage is so low that up to 100+ LED pars/bar uplighters can be connected to one 13A socket!
Personalise your event with Uplighting, transform the look of the venue to something magical and mystical!!
