Here are a few tips on how to create the perfect lighting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Choose light colors over dark colors. Dark colors can make a room feel smaller and more intimate, while light colors can feel bigger and more open.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid having too many bright lights in one area. This can be overwhelming and cause guests to feel uncomfortable. Instead, try to use softer or warmer lights throughout the space.<\/li>\n<li>Consider using candles as part of your lighting scheme. They provide a warm and romantic atmosphere, and they can also be used to accentuate certain areas of the room.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-38\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image.jpeg\" alt=\"create the perfect lighting\" width=\"897\" height=\"548\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image.jpeg 897w, http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image-250x153.jpeg 250w, http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image-680x415.jpeg 680w, http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image-768x469.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image-125x76.jpeg 125w, http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image-360x220.jpeg 360w, http:\/\/www.bloominroseflowers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wedding_reception_lighting_3_image-550x336.jpeg 550w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>How many strings of lights do you need for a wedding reception?<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re planning a wedding reception, you&#8217;ll need to determine how many strings of lights you&#8217;ll need. There are several factors to consider when making this decision, including the size of your venue and the length of your event. Here are some tips to help guide you in choosing the right amount of lights for your special day.<\/p>\n<p>The number of strings of lights greatly depends on the size of your reception and how much lighting you want. A good rule of thumb is to have at least 50 lights per 100 square feet. So, if you are planning a 300 square foot reception, you will need approximately 150 strings of lights. If you are looking for something more dramatic, consider using LED fairy lights or net lights. These lights can be hung in trees, around doorways, or draped over tables and chairs. No matter what type of light you choose, make sure that it is UL listed to be safe for use indoors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s no question that the right wedding reception lighting can set the perfect mood for your celebration.
