Bright Light. The right lighting can create a certain mood at your ceremony. Check out your site at the time of day you will be married and assess the light. Consider hiring a lighting specialist to come up with a lighting scheme that gives the room the ambience you want to convey. Make sure that the lighting you choose complies with any rules or building codes your ceremony site may have. Try using diffused lighting for a softly-lit feel in the room. Pin spots can light up the area where you will be married, such as the huppah (wedding canopy) in a Jewish wedding. But make sure the lights aren't too hot, or you might find yourself with woozy rabbi. Have a licensed electrician install your lights so you don't have any unforeseen power outages.
