The past few days I have been contemplating what aspects make up a truly "special" event, and each event I recall had incredible lighting. Just like draping, lighting will transform the environment of an event into something extraordinary. Now, don't get me wrong...I am not talking about bright white, Stadium-like lighting (let's face it...NO ONE looks good in that lighting). I am talking about golds, ambers, no color pinks...beautiful colored-lights. Uplights will mask the most bland airwall and turn it into something with pizzazz. Moving gobos will not only given people something to watch...it will also give the drunk ones something to focus on!! Either way, don't think that linens and florals alone will get the job done. If the lights aren't on, who will see them? And the worst part of it all, not even the best digital cameras will do lighting justice. Until "they" make one, this random thought will have to go without a picture!!
