Is it time to decide on a venue for your reception or event?
Your head might be spinning trying to decide on a perfect venue to make your event come to life and impress your guests. If you are sticking with a budget, or have decided on a plain venue, keep in mind that you can turn an empty canvas into a masterpiece with the correct lighting. Lighting is key to any event. You can change the whole look of a room by adding color, design, or highlighting an important accent piece. You know that wedding cake you spent a fortune on? Why not draw attention to it by shining a spotlight right on it? Your guests will be wowed and you will feel like that cake money was well spent.
Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt happy? Or vice versa, sad? Next time, pay attention to the color on the walls and the lighting in the room.
Believe it or not, there is a psychological side to colors. Yellow can make you feel happy and upbeat, while blue is more of a relaxing, calm color. If you are trying to pick a venue for your event and are having troubles with the feeling of the room, it could be the coloring and/or lighting. Don’t fret! You can hire a lighting specialist to use a technique called “color wash” to spread color throughout the room (*ahem* like Fyerfly!). A color wash will drape your room with any color of your choice and can totally transform your event space.
Textured lighting can add patterns on the walls, ceilings, or any space that will go along with your theme. It is a great way to fill empty space in the venue to add spark and creativity to your event. From snowflakes for a winter Wonderland theme, to vines or a pattern on the ceiling, textured lighting can add the extra wow-factor that might be exactly what your venue needed.
You know that cake spotlight I talked about earlier? This is where the technique of up pin spotting comes in. Your lighting specialist can draw the focus to any area or any special piece you would like to highlight in the room.
Adding the right lighting and color to the event can create the perfect amount of flare and spark. Up lighting also gives dimension to the room. By focusing lights on different parts of the walls or drape, the room can come alive.
Even the plainest venue space has the potential to transform into something amazing by adding the right lighting. Not sure where to begin with lighting? That is where we come in. We can plan any of your lighting designs and answer any questions you have. Feel free to contact us at info@fyerflyproductions.com or look us up at FyerFlyProductions.com !
We were honored to be a part of Laura and Rory big day at the beautiful Alfond Inn hotel located in downtown Winter Park. The hotels small town feel and boutique-style was just what the couple wanted. It’s walkability and architecture, combined with its elegance made it the perfect venue for a manageable and very personal intimate wedding experience. We loved the couple’s choice for the color palette in the reception space. The uplighting, pinspots and color wash provided by FyerFly just made the décor all come life. We wish the couple all the happiness in the world!
We love when the couple enters the room and it makes them cry 🙂 *job accomplished*
Eagle Creek really is such a beautiful place to get married at with its luscious green grass and beautiful landscaping. It also makes for a beautiful backdrop for gazing out at from inside the impeccably decorated ballroom. Karla and David chose emerald green and navy blue with accents of silver as their color palette for their special day. We are simply obsessed over how the green uplighting makes the circular ballroom come to life! All in all, we have to say this wedding was filled with an enormous amount of indoor elegance and tons of outdoor beauty.
This fun-loving couple decided to tie the knot at Historic Dubsdread for its rustic charm and vintage elegance. This venue really has it all, for the stunning 1920’s architecture, original stone fireplace, and hundred year old oak trees. There is no doubt that all these elements combined, offers the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable celebration! The couple wanted to keep their celebration fun and lively, and they did just that by partying the night away with the help of FlyerFly Productions – we love seeing everyone having such a great time!
This styled photo shoot at the Dr. Phillips Center is full of details that when combined together, really do bring out the true beauty of the venues architecture. It is no secret that lighting can set the mood and enhance the aesthetic appeal of an area, as can be seen in the photographs below. The reception area showcases how easy it is to add that extra WOW factor with the use of the blue and white textured lighting. Not to mention, the combination of the candle light down the aisle and the lavender uplighting in ceremony area, it’s simply stunning! There is so much you can do with lighting and when you have a beautiful venue as your canvas, it only makes it that much easier!
Who wouldn’t love this backdrop – such a special feature to this venue!
