This seemed too good to be true and was one of the easiest parts of my wedding. Lights showed up as promised, well-packaged, with return label enclosed. They were plug and play. We sent them back after the wedding and got confirmation of return. The couple times I reached out to customer service I got insanely prompt responses. Highly recommend.
Amazing price and sooo easy.
This was such a HUGE money saver. The lights arrived on time and were perfect for our event. Shipping back was super easy too. All the lights plug into each other so you just have one cord powering them all up ( depends on your set up of course).
Everything went according to plan with DIY Uplighting! The lights arrived on time, and it was a breeze to ship them back! The lights were incredibly easy to put up with the help of a few friends. Be careful with the reception hall venue though; you may have to buy insurance if you're doing lighting for the reception. I did so and it was about $120 for the day. The guests all loved the atmosphere of the reception. Even if you only rent 8-10 lights, it's sure to make a difference. So cheap compared to the $1300 my event planner was trying to get me to pay for lighting services!
We used DIY uplighting for our reception. The lights came a few days before the wedding and the set-up was super easy. The price was unbeatable they had the lowest prices and I did a lot of research before I made my purchase.
Extremely easy, much cheaper even compared to a bundle from a DJ. They delivered on time, set up was easy (our venue allowed us to set up the night before and just turned them on for us). We ordered an extra wireless just in case. Luckily we did as one did not work. I called and they refunded my money for that light.
FYI: Count out the outlets in your reception space and figure our how many wired vs wireless lights you need. Wired are cheaper!
It is definitely worth it.
The below message is my email to them after my bad experience -
Sir or Mam,
I had recently ordered some up lights from your company. But, the order was canceled because your shiping department determined that the shipping name was "invalad" or "unverified". This was told to me by a lady whom I spoke with named Susan, on Tuesday September 20th.
Several things amaze me about your obviously flawed system.
First of all, I made the order about a month prior to the date which I needed the lighting. The date which the order was requested was August the 29th. It is very inconsiderate, and totally unprofessional of your company to wait 17 days to check data, upon which an order could potentially be stalled, or, in my case canceled. I was relying on these lights and had already contracted the service to a client, to use these lights. Why wasn't I notified in a more timely manner about a potential problem with your addressing system. I do realize an email was sent to me on September 15th asking me to verify my shipping address. I was not aware of any email until September 20th, by which time the order had already been canceled. I did not see anywhere during the ordering process with you company - that I was obligated comply with your companies imposition, that I must monitor my emails daily, in order to receive the product for which we contracually agreed upon.
Second of all, dispite the verification quest email being sent to me on the 15th, my debit card was still charged for the amount of $60! If my order was being held contengent upon me verifying the shipping address, and it did not get processed, why did your company take my money? By your company sending the email, it was acknowledgement that you were aware that the order was not being processed, and potentially would be canceled. In my view, this is very similar to fraud. You took money from me for a service, which you had not, and potentially would not, and eventually never did, provide!
Furthermore, in your company's email to me dated August 29th, it was said:
"Hello Nathan,
Thank you for reserving LED event lighting rental with DIYUplighting.com!
Just to confirm, we have 5 lights reserved for your event on September 24, 2016.
$25 has been charged to the credit card provided. This is a non-refundable deposit.
The remaining balance of $60.00 will be automatically charged to the provided card 1-3 days before we ship
the lights to you. The lights will be scheduled for shipment early enough to ensure that you will receive them at least 2 days before your event.
You obviously lied to me! Your statement above clearly says "The remaining balance of $60 will be charged to the card 1-3 before we ship". If this was true, you would not have charged my card for $60 at all! Because you knew it was possible you might not ship. Therefore, if you knew it was possible you might not ship, then you should have waited for the confirmation to charge me.
Lastly, I did receive a refund yesterday, September 21st, for the second charge of $60. Which as I said - was paid to your company on September 15. However, the $60 charge which your company stole from me, was the SECOND of TWO charges your company pilfered from me. The first charge, (and again this is a very obvious mark of your company's unprofessional nature), which was to serve as a reservation charge, was on August 29th, upon my initial order.
I was very weary when I first found the web page. My reception venue was going to cost $40 per light, and I was 2 weeks out from the wedding, and I was getting desperate. I decided that I would try it since they were around $17 a light, and I am so glad I did! They charge a small amount (like $25) when you place the order. The balance of the order is charged when the lights ship. They arrive 2-3 days prior to the time frame you need them, and they come with a pre-paid return label. As long as you send them back within a week of your event, it could not be easier!
We rented from DIYUplighting.com for our wedding day. It was so easy and affordable, and ended up making a huge difference with the ambiance of our reception. The shipping arrived right on time, and the lights were very easy and simple to set up. When it is time to ship the lights back, just pack them into the same box they arrived in and attach the return shipping label that came with the lights. So easy, and it made our reception look a thousand times nicer! I would use this company again for any celebration I was planning.
We ordered 8 LED lights. There were many colors to choose from. It brought warmth and dramatic effect to our venue. We paid a downpayment and paid in full once the lights shipped. The lights also came with a shipping label to send back. I would highly recommend DIY Uplighting if you're looking for this kind of do it yourself service.
DIY Uplighting makes it so easy to provide the modern look and feel that we wanted at our reception. We had two colors for our theme and the lights they provide had multiple colors to choose from so we were able to get the lighting color we wanted. Its easy to sign up online. They sent it on time, and it is easy to set up take down and return. I would use them again.
I was apprehensive about using DIY Uplighting because I wasn't sure how easy or seamless it would be and what the quality of the product we were getting was. The whole process was painless. The lights cost a fraction of what they would from any of the local vendors, they were delivered directly to my house a few days prior to the wedding. They included a few extension cords in case they were needed. The lights were a snap to set up. Then, back in the box, prepaid labels on the box and they were sent back with no problem. We got confirmation emails when they were shipped to us and when they were returned back. This was a great value!
Our DJ recommended diyuplighting.com to us and we could not have been more happy with their product. It was so easy to order and return and the product was quality. Easy setup and tutorial to find our perfect lighting shade.
They arrived earlier than stated. They replied quickly when I had questions or concerns by email. They were ao nice and sooo easy to work with. The set up is really as simple as they say. The venue looked great with the small lights!
DIY Uplighting added a whole new affect to my wedding reception. It was easy to do and very affordable. I would use them again.
DIY Uplighting is a no brainer for a wedding. Not complicated, simple ordering process, great lighting, easy return. Why wouldn't you go this route?!!!! I was absolutely amazed by the coverage that the lighting provided. This was definitely a great way to save money but still get our desired look. Would definitely recommend!
We rented uplighting through DIY uplighting to save money and it was great! Lights came when they were promised, all lights worked and were so easy to set up. Return shipping was so easy with the prepaid labels that were enclosed. The uplighting really made a difference and added to the atmosphere of our reception. Ordering was simple and customer service was great!
My husband ordered uplights from DIY uplighting, and loved them! they were super easy to set up, and make the space look great, and the lights look great in photos too! Shipping was easy, both ways.
I loved the lighting I rented with them! It was so worth the price, simply to put up how I wanted, and so easy to just repack and drop them off to get shipped out the next day! I can't wait for the next opportunity to rent from them again!
If you need uplighting, this is the way to go! Cheap rental, easy set up and great customer service! These lights were beautiful for my wedding! Couldn't be happier!!
I hadn't considered uplighting but after seeing the photos from my wedding, I'm so glad I went along with the idea! They turned out beautiful and made such a difference in the ambiance of the room. Shipping and returns were very easy. Worth every penny!
I had a great experience with DIY Uplighting. I was warned that they weren't very strong, but I was not going for a flood of color. I was lighting pillars and they were perfect. The ceiling were very high, and they still reached the ceiling. It was perfect and so affordable!!
DIY uplighting made it easy and fun! The lights arrived 3 days prior to our event and were so EASY to set up! We literally had to plug them in, set the color and walk away! The effect it had on the room was wonderful and I am so pleased with the service. They came with a prepaid return shipping label and sent them back with no issue. The room looked fabulous and the pricing was great compared to having it done by our DJ or other "lighting specialist". Don't be fooled by high prices, you can DIY with this company!
I absolutely LOVED the uplighting I used at our reception! We had so many compliments and it really transformed the room without doing any decorating! It was so beautiful and they ship it to you and you send it back with a pre-paid packing slip. So easy! Highly recommend!
This is highly recommended!!!! They shipped the lights out we got them a few days before the wedding. They all worked and were very easy to use and quick to put up. They could save you tons!!!! Will use them again!
NO complaints the most easiest thing on a brides' agenda of planning. Great customer service, fast easy & cheap for great uplighting. we turned the venue into a beautiful venue with these rentals!!
this company is amazing! I wanted uplighting for my reception but after pricing around the area and hearing approximately $1,500 I had almost given up until I found DIY uplighting online. Everything is just as described, I ordered my lights and they were delivered a few days before my wedding and I returned them 2 days after in the box that they were shipped in and with the label they provided. I received a return confirmation 2-3 days later and for only a small fraction of the original quotes from local lighting companies, I had the uplighting that I desired. The lights really do give your reception space great look and they were very easy to set up.
I really wanted uplighting for our reception but couldn't find any affordable options locally. I was a little worried about shipping and being able to set them up then having to return them via shipping but it all worked out very smoothly. They have great email communication and the lights were perfect and easy to set up. Definitely a great and affordable option for uplighting!
The service was fabulous, the lights made such a huge difference to our hall! It really made the reception special.
I really wanted uplighting for my wedding but did not want to pay upwards of $600-1000 that I was being quoted. I thought I could do it myself but buying the lights also proved costly. I can across DIY uplighting and rented and it was perfect!
They ship the lights of whatever quantity you want with free return label and you plug in and ship back after the wedding. It proved easy, the lights were quality, it didnt look DIY and was cheap!
I spent under $200 for this! Amazing find
