Recently I started to notice a trend, although I do not go to many weddings each year, it seems like many of them are now using LED lights instead of incandescent bulbs. I talked with a wedding planner friend and she explained the many benefits of using using LED rope and string lighting for decorations as wedding lights.

LED lights can be a variety of different colors and shapes and they are durable so they don’t break very easily or fail during the wedding.

For the environmentally conscious they are much more energy efficient than standard incandescent lights (80%). The LED light are also much less of a drag to install and work with. You can actually get 125 strings lit off just one outlet. The best lights are rated to last for 100,000 hours or more so they can be used over and over again at all of your weddings.

It makes it easy to be a wedding planner or facility manager these days as the lights save lots of work, electricity, and they last longer - all of which make a difference to the bottom line.
