1. A method of manufacturing a light emitting device comprising:
providing a light emitting structure including
a light emitting element having a top surface and lateral surfaces,
a wavelength conversion member having a top surface, a bottom surface, and lateral surfaces, with the bottom surface of the wavelength conversion member facing the top surface of the light emitting element, and
a reflecting member surrounding the lateral surfaces of the light emitting element and the lateral surfaces of the wavelength conversion member, the reflecting member having a top surface; and
supplying a covering member to cover the top surface of the wavelength conversion member and the top surface of the reflecting member, the covering member containing at least one of a pigment and a dye so that a body color of the covering member is the same or a similar color as a body color of the wavelength conversion member, the covering member being configured not to convert a wavelength of light entered into the covering member.
