    I prefer the look of string lights, but I think it depends on your venue. We will have both.

    I like the look of string lights. Our venue offered uplighting, but I wasn't a huge fan.

    LOVE string lights! And I have tons and tons of white ones, so it was something I didn’t have to purchase extra!!

    I LOVE string lights. We had round bulb ones, which you can kind of see in this photo, and it was so romantic.

    Both! I can’t hang string lights at my reception venue but I’m looking into uplighting if I can afford it. Lights bring out that wedding vibe.

    I love the look of string lights and it makes WAY more sense since we’ll be outdoors.

    String lights. I think they're softer and more romantic. Uplighting is more glam in my opinion, which is nice, just not the look we're going for.

    I’m such a sucker for string lights! Doesn’t work with my venue, but I love it when I see it.

    The string lighting is way cooler but not something we could do at our venue.

    We went with string lights because that's what our venue package offered.

    String!
    Our venue offers string lights and it's part of why I loved it. We also registered for some for our backyard.
