    Wedding Marquee Letter FAQ

    Can you spell out our last name?

    Yes — this is our most popular wedding request. We carry the full A–Z alphabet so we can spell any last name. Whether it's four letters or ten, we build your custom display and set it up professionally at your venue.

    How long does setup take for wedding letters?

    Typically 30–60 minutes depending on the length of your display and venue layout. We coordinate with your venue and wedding planner to arrive during load-in, so letters are in place and glowing well before your guests arrive.

    Can the letters be used outdoors?

    Yes — our letters are weather-resistant and look incredible outdoors, especially during golden hour and at dusk as the LEDs become more visible. For open-air setups we recommend a covered backup option in case of rain, and our team will advise the best placement for your venue.

    Do you do proposal setups with MARRY ME letters?

    Absolutely. Proposal setups are available throughout Chicago — rooftops, lakefront parks, hotel suites, restaurants, and private spaces. We offer discreet setup so the moment stays a complete surprise. Contact us with your planned date, time, and location and we'll handle the rest.

    Can we pair the letters with a flower wall?

    Yes, and it's one of our most popular combinations. Letters placed in front of a lush flower wall creates the ultimate wedding photo station — every single guest will want a photo there. We coordinate both rentals together with a single delivery and setup.

    How far in advance should we book wedding letters?

    We recommend booking 4–8 weeks ahead for peak wedding season (May–October). Popular Saturday dates — especially in June, September, and October — book up very quickly. Contact us as early as possible to secure your date.

    What's included in the wedding rental price?

    Delivery is charged separately. The quote confirms the selected letters, event duration, venue access, setup, breakdown, and pickup arrangements.

    Marquee letters and numbers: planning answers

    Chicago Flower Wall rents light-up marquee letters and numbers for wedding receptions, birthdays and corporate events. The display is planned around the requested word, initials or number combination. Send the exact characters and venue layout to confirm availability, arrangement dimensions and electrical requirements.

    How much room does a marquee arrangement need?

    The footprint depends on the specific letters or numbers, their spacing and how the display is supported. Send the exact wording and proposed location. Confirm the complete arrangement width, depth, power and clearance rather than multiplying a single character’s height.

    Can marquee letters be placed outside?

    Outdoor use needs review for the selected characters, surface, power supply and weather exposure. Share the proposed location and ask for approval before booking. A covered venue area does not automatically establish that an electrical rental is suitable there.
