About our light-up numbers, crosses and letters

Light-up numbers are one of the most photographed props at a party, and ours are built to stand up to a busy event. Single and double numbers are available for birthdays and anniversaries, and our light-up love letters spell out a proposal or an engagement party. We also hire a light-up cross, which is a popular choice for christenings and First Holy Communions.

Our numbers are built from 18 mm wood, stand around 4 ft tall and can be dimmed or set to flash, so the brightness suits a bright hall or a dimmed room. They are PAT tested, and we deliver, set up and collect them.

A light-up number works on its own or in front of a backdrop, and many customers pair one with an organic balloon garland or a balloon stack. If your age or year has two digits, ask for a double number so both stand together.

Light-up pieces are booked most for milestone birthdays, christenings, engagement and proposal setups and proms and leavers parties.

Questions we get asked

Are the light-up numbers safe to use at a venue?

Yes. They are PAT tested, and we confirm any power requirements for your venue when we agree the booking.

Can I hire a light-up cross for a christening or communion?

Yes. The light-up cross is part of our light-up hire range.

Can I choose any number?

Single numbers run from 0 to 9. For a two-digit number such as 18, 21 or 40, choose a double number and tell us which two digits you need.
