Brides Beware… not all architectural lighting is created equal! Have you been wondering what architectural lighting is?

It is one of the newest wedding enhancements & is becoming extremely popular. You may have seen it at a recent event, on a TV wedding show, heard about it on the internet, or from a friend. These days there are many lighting options: dance floor lighting, ceiling lighting, architectural lighting and monogram lighting.

Let’s talk about architectural lighting today. The authentic, state-of-the art lighting, is not just uplighting. It is considered architectural lighting.

Many DJ companies are using inexpensive Par Can or Spot Light fixtures, but still call it uplighting or ambient lighting. These other fixtures are not wireless, not battery operated and not LED. They get extremely hot and can be dangerous. These are lights that use a colored gel to try and “closely” match the event colors. They involve lots of wires and extension cords.

You may find many function facilities are trying to entice you to book with them by offering “free uplighting”. The fixtures they offer are simply left on, no one attends to them and they are set to one color and just randomly chase or flash – nothing fancy, nothing customized.

If you want the most dramatic look and feel, you want to hire a company that is using the best LED fixtures, and can create custom programs for the utmost impact.
