Lighting

Lighting is an integral aspect of the event experience. We create a warm, welcoming space for your reception and can take your dreams to whatever heights you’d like, with many levels of lighting options.

Uplights are my go-to. My must-have. My ride or die. They serve multiple purposes: beautiful color control for the room as static lights, and integration with our music for peripheral dance floor enhancement, with lights surrounding us.

sound reactive uplighting

My favorite part about uplights is their “sound reactive” mode, where they pulse, flash, or strobe to the beat and intensity of the music. Here are some videos of them in action.

The Dance Floor Power of Uplighting

Why Uplighting Is My Number One Lighting Recommendation for Weddings and Events

You want good energy during the celebration of your lives, right? Lighting has the power to take a “good” party to the next level. Have you ever been to a concert venue that doesn’t use lighting? There’s a reason they spend serious money on their lighting systems. They work. Lighting creates dynamic space and allows people to let go.

dance floor lighting

Moving and flashing lights bring the energy of any room up by a significant degree. If you want people to dance, I recommend our Classic Dance Floor Lighting Package, at least. Though video never really captures the real power of it, here are a few videos of our lighting at work.

Level 1: Classic

Dance Floor Lighting - Level 1 - The Celebration DJ

Level 2: Deluxe (Concert Level)

We tailor our lighting to your vision with an array of awesome tools, generally including moving heads, ceiling lasers, fog and strobe.

Level 3: Festival

All of our bells and whistles, plus projection mapping for the building, dance floor, or even the cake. (Projection mapped cake? Yes.)

Static Uplighting

Uplighting is a splendid way to control the “feel” of a space or venue. These miraculous lights shine powerfully up walls, trees, under tables, wherever you imagine. We have wireless RGBAW lights, which means they can produce virtually any color you would like (even the elusive true white and amber), and we can place them anywhere.

Edison bulbs are great, and well accented with uplights running up the walls to give the building life.

Our Uplights Can Be Any Color

They can change, react to sound, and even be controlled by an app on my phone.

Monograms

Monograms are an impressive way to claim the day, venue, and life as yours. Imagine your names, initials, date, and whatever design you would like projected onto walls, ceiling, dance floor, wherever you want. I have a 5000 lumen projector that I bought specifically to create professional quality monograms (even during the day). Small and classy to enormous and impactful, my technology can handle whatever you want to see.

All of these options and more are available with my custom “Choose Your Own Adventure” proposals, where you can choose exactly what you want for your wedding. We can get started on your quote with a phone call or a quick questionnaire. Just let me know how you would like to proceed.
