One of the things we love about our wedding reception venue, is the movable ceiling grids. They can be decorated with lights, fabric, lanterns, or myriad combinations of things. Jessica really wanted to have a pretty ceiling decor package, and Noah's has a subcontractor they work with, but the cost is prohibitive.
Having married in 1985, I've been out of the looking-for-wedding-vendors mode for over 25 years. Just as we did when designing our own home, I always like to shop around and compare packages/prices before spending a significant amount of money. But where do you look for someone who specializes in wedding ceiling lighting?
After some trial and error in my search, I hit the jackpot in specialty holiday lighting. I found a company called Moon Light Holiday Lighting, whose main business model is setting up Christmas lighting. But over the past few years they have expanded their expertise into the off season by creating stunning wedding lighting!
I met with Nephi in the reception hall and went over design and pricing. There are two reasons we choose Moon Light to do our ceiling lighting package:
- Nephi was truly excited about the project. He's not just some guy who throws up lights. He is genuinely enthusiastic about what he creates. He came not only with pictures of past projects, but all sorts of ideas he wants to try in the future. He drew out some pictures and made great suggestions.
- He beat the price of Noah's recommended lighting source and gave us more than basic features in the package. Double benefit.
Nephi and his crew will be putting up draped fabric with strings of lights and round Chinese lanterns for the wedding reception. I can't wait to see the result! Of course we will have pictures and a full review after the big day.
If you're looking for wedding lighting, give your local holiday lighting specialists a call. If you're looking for wedding lighting in Utah, call Moonlighting at 801.225.0198 and you'll get expertise along with passion for great lighting design.

Oh, wow. I wish I had known about this company when we got married. I couldn’t afford even the basic lighting package, but if I could get something better for less money, it would have certainly been worth looking at.
I do think the room looks fine with just the grids, but adds so much ambiance!
BellaRose, I was kind of at a dead end in my search when I started branching out. (It also indicates to me that this is an internet niche that wouldn’t be hard to break into. 🙂
The ceiling looks gorgeous and so great. The wedding is going to be the greatest moment. I am sure you will have the best time of your life!
Thanks for the kind words, LoveChic. That isn’t the ceiling treatment we’re getting, but another one done by Moon Lighting. (It looks like it may have been done at Bella Vista.)
I can’t wait to see what they come up with. They’ve done some gorgeous stuff. 🙂
This is just so beautiful and very intimate. Can I use your photo as an inspiration for my upcoming wedding hmm(winks) . I just love it.
Congrats on your wedding. The photo is one from Moon Lighting, so they own the rights. But I’m sure they’d be flattered if they inspired you! 🙂
The venue look great and cool and all other adjectives are suitable here! I hope you’ll have the same gorgeous decoration of the hall!
Thanks for the kind words, Anna. I am confident Moon Lighting will give us a great ambiance in the room! 🙂
Can Nephi come our way may 7
Heh heh. Maybe with a travel package thrown in! 😀
