LED Uplighting Hire in Birmingham
Add colour and atmosphere to your venue with LED uplighting hire from JK Weddings & Events.
Uplighting, also known as mood lighting, casts light upwards across walls, pillars and other venue features. It can introduce your wedding colours, highlight an area of the room or create a warmer setting for an evening celebration.
We offer wired and battery-powered uplighting for weddings, birthday parties, anniversaries and corporate events. Hire lighting on its own or include it within a coordinated venue-dressing package.
Based in Rowley Regis, near Birmingham, we provide delivery and setup across the Midlands and within approximately 100 miles of Birmingham.
How Uplighting Can Change Your Venue
Carefully positioned lights help bring different parts of a room together.
You might use uplighting around the reception room, between windows or beside pillars to highlight the building’s features. A smaller group of lights can add colour to one wall behind a display or top table.
The finished effect depends on the wall colour, surface texture and existing room lighting. Pale walls and draping show colour differently from dark paint, stone or exposed brick.
Send us photographs of your venue so we can discuss suitable positions and the effect you would like to achieve.
Choose Your Uplighting Setup
We will help you choose between wired and battery-powered lights based on your venue, socket locations and required operating time.
Wired LED Uplighting
Wired uplights connect to suitable mains sockets around the room.
They are useful for events requiring extended operating times, as they do not rely on battery capacity. We plan cable routes around the venue layout and position equipment to keep access routes clear.
Tell us where sockets are available and whether the venue has any restrictions on equipment placement.
Battery-Powered LED Uplighting
Battery-powered lights offer more flexibility where suitable sockets are limited or you want fewer visible power cables around the display.
Operating time depends on the equipment, brightness and colour settings. We will confirm whether the selected lights are suitable for your full hire period before booking.
Please include the time you want the lights switched on, as well as your event finish time, when enquiring.
Wedding Mood Lighting
Use uplighting to connect your wedding decorations with the surrounding room.
Soft lighting can complement a wedding breakfast, while stronger colours can create a different atmosphere for the evening reception. We can discuss settings that suit your flowers, linen and other decorations.
Combine uplighting with LED backdrops and coloured draping or illuminated letters for a coordinated display.
We will consider how the lighting works alongside your venue’s existing lights and the positions used for photographs.
Lighting for Parties and Corporate Events
Uplighting is also suitable for birthday celebrations, engagement parties, anniversaries, awards evenings and company functions.
Choose colours that complement your party theme or discuss lighting inspired by your company branding. Available shades and the final appearance depend on the selected equipment and the surfaces being illuminated.
For a corporate dinner, lights can highlight the room’s perimeter while leaving the tables and presentation area clearly defined.
How Many Uplights Will You Need?
The number of lights depends on the size of the room and how much of it you want to illuminate.
We can quote for combinations such as 6, 10, 12 or 16 lights, with other quantities considered to suit your plans. These are starting points rather than fixed recommendations for every venue.
Before suggesting a quantity, we will consider:
- The approximate room dimensions
- Whether you want one feature wall or wider coverage
- Pillars, windows and other architectural details
- Wall colours and surface finishes
- Existing lighting and daylight
- Available power supplies
- Furniture positions and access routes
A few lights may suit a focused display, while a larger room may benefit from lights spaced around several walls.
Coordinate Your Lighting and Decorations
Plan your uplighting alongside the rest of your venue dressing so the colours and displays work together.
Our chair styling and table linen includes options for coordinating fabrics, while our table centrepieces provide floral, lantern and illuminated display choices.
You can also discuss flowers, backdrops and lettering as part of a tailored wedding and event décor package.
We will help you choose where lighting adds the most to the room without distracting from your main decorations.
Delivery, Installation and Collection
Our team delivers, positions and tests your selected uplights, with collection arranged around your venue’s requirements.

Your quotation will confirm the equipment, hire period, setup arrangements and any delivery or collection charges.
If you would like the lighting changed or repositioned during the event, discuss this before booking.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does LED uplighting hire cost?
The price depends on the number and type of lights, the hire period, venue location and installation requirements.
Send us your event date, venue details and an idea of the area you want illuminated for a personalised quotation.
Can the lights match our wedding colours?
We can discuss colours that complement your wedding theme. The appearance will vary depending on the equipment, wall colour and surrounding light, so an exact match to fabric or printed colours cannot always be achieved.
Do you offer wireless uplighting?
We offer battery-powered uplighting that operates without a mains power cable during use. We will confirm suitable equipment and operating times for your event.
How long do battery uplights last?
Battery life varies with the unit, brightness and colour settings. Tell us your required start and finish times so we can confirm a suitable setup.
Can uplighting stay on throughout the wedding breakfast and evening?
This can be arranged with suitable equipment. Wired lighting may be appropriate for longer periods, while battery options need to be assessed against the required runtime.
Can uplights be used outdoors?
Please discuss outdoor use before booking. Suitability depends on the selected lights, weather exposure, surface and power arrangements.
Is delivery and setup included?
We provide delivery and setup, with the arrangements and associated charges explained in your quotation. Collection is agreed before the event.
Can we combine uplighting with other decorations?
Yes. Uplighting can be included with backdrops, letters, table decorations, chair styling and other available services in a tailored package.
