I did this as well. I put 3 in the ceiling fan above my bed.

I get up an hour before my partner, and I also wake up easier, so I have them turn on at a low orange-red sunrise type color. They then later gradually brighten to a higher level of bright white when it’s time for her to get up, so it’s more intense, but still not harsh.

We still have alarms to actually get us up, but they can be quieter and less harsh, since the light helps the actual waking effect.
