Having been quoted some obscene prices for Uplighter hire (didn’t even mention it was a wedding, but an Aug date sort of gives it away), it looks like I can buy a decent set for less than a WE hire fee. The plan being to just sell them on Ebay afterwards.

So anyone used any e.g. thinking about these:

And Linking 4 or 5 together to bathe the walls of a room in colour for a ceilidh….

After literally hundreds of recommendations from STW, I plumped for six of these:

If it’s dry tonight I’ll be hooking all six of them up in sync in the garden for a test….

They actually worked quite well on the day, they were the only light it the barn and we synced all six up so they changed colour together. Gave a nice atmosphere for the Ceilidh / Barn dance.
