Match Your Space with Your Color

What color are you using to tie together your theme? More vibrant colors will give you better results. Color that is high in saturation always has the best effect. This includes bright oranges, soft blues, deep pinks, and lime greens. A popular solution we do for clients all the time is wall uplighting. We create this effect by positioning LED lights at the base of your walls around the perimeter of your venue. During dinner and cocktail hour, your room will match your chosen color or can slowly change between colors. We can even stagger fixtures to coordinate with a primary and secondary color pallet. During the upbeat moments, your lighting will change colors with the beat of the music. Example, if we play Lady in Red your entire room is red… if we play Usher – Yea, your area is green like the music video.

“Since we have over 1,000,000 colors available, your options are limitless”

Dress up your event with pipe and drape


Colored fabric is a classic way to make-over the feel of any function. If you want a picture perfect backdrop, then incorporate it into the design of your room. Pipe and drape is also used to produce a blank canvas when your lighting choices are limited. Two scenarios when this is needed is for venues that have stained wood or darker paint.

We all know there are some places that have not so pleasing wall paper or paint. Drapery is an efficient way to cover those ugly walls so guests won’t notice. You can even build divided rooms with pipe & drape. Some people use this to mark entrance ways and lounge spots. When using fixtures to light pipe and drapery, it’s always best to use a lighter pastel color for the cloth. This will make your colors more noticeable on your backdrops.

Picture this… constellations above your guests

A trendy method of lighting-up your event is to bring out your ceiling. A unique night-time vibe can easily be created with our starry ceiling. What we do, is aim extremely bright lasers that have moving patterns onto your ceiling. The optical illusion makes guests think your ceiling has vanished. We have used this effect in the past for forest, fall & outdoor winter themes. Bring natures beautiful into your event with our constellation approach. Your guests will be fascinated by how much detail you put into your lighting.

Make Your Centerpieces Larger than Life


What will guests say when they notice your centerpieces? Centerpieces give your room more focus and pin spotting your tables makes them come to life. We aim high intensity LED fixtures at your centerpieces and make them really shine.

Some clients add crystal bead strands to make their entire space shimmer like stars. You can arrange the beads on branches in tall vases so the crystals can capture and reflect the pin-spot. To recreate this amazing effect, all you need is (1) lighting fixture per table. Trust us, your family and friends will appreciate all the time you’ve put into designing your centerpieces.

Wash Your Ceiling in Any Color You Choose

Ceiling washes are great at topping off your space and keeping it well balanced in color. The effect usually make sense to do in halls that have either vaulted ceilings our tented canopies. The higher your ceiling the more your colors will blend evenly. Most of our ceiling washes are done in a secondary color to compliment a primary color (video sample below light pink ceiling with teal walls). Fixtures are controlled by a computer program, so your ceiling can change as your evening does. Since we use intelligent moving head fixtures, ceiling washes can also act as a follow-spot for grand entrances and special dances.
