When flipping through magazines or online albums, many of the venue photos that catch your eye have extensive lighting and various spotlighting to accentuate architectural elements or mask imperfections. Lighting is a décor designer’s trick to making all your guests say “WOW” in any venue.
Lighting can range from simple uplighting using par cans around the perimeter of the space to elaborate treatments using intelligent lighting. Whichever you choose, you will have instant ambiance.
Lighting can be used to accentuate wonderful architectural elements or hide a less than desirable wall color.
Brides love seeing their monogram on the dance floor - just know that once the dance floor is full of people it becomes a really bright light on bodies. If you want to have the monogram, use it for the walk-in Wow! and then turn it off or find another location to project that won't get 'interference.'
We've transitioned to LED lighting, which draws less power (which is better for the venues), offers unlimited color choices, and the ability to change colors through the course of the event. Gobos are used for projecting patterns and are great in adding texture to walls and floors.
