24 Disco Ball Wedding Decor Ideas You Will Love


Whether you’re planning a full-on Saturday Night Fever-style bash or just want to add a bit of retro glitz and glam to your day, nothing says “party” quite like a disco ball. Hang your disco ball wedding decor from the ceiling, use them as centrepieces to your tables or down the aisle, or even as photobooth props. Their sparkling and reflective surfaces catch any light and will add instant ambience to any space.

One of the best things about disco balls is that they fit any season, any time and are therefore brilliantly versatile additions to your party decor. Incorporate them into your wedding backdrop or floral displays, use mini ones on your cake and signage, and for a festive celebration you could even give them as unique Christmas decoration favours! Here are a few fun ways to add some disco ball party sparkle to your day.

Our Top Tips for Disco Ball Wedding Decor

  • Create a disco-tastic top table and mix disco balls, flowers and neon signs for full-on Studio 54 effect. You could also add mini disco balls to place settings and style liberally down tables for shimmering effect.
  • Set the wedding and DJ stage as well as the dancefloor with a display of disco balls overhead.
  • Bring some bling to your cake by surrounding it with disco balls.
  • Depending on the level of disco you want to bring into your day you could continue the theme into signage, invites and place cards.
