What is Uplighting: Uplighting is the art of painting with light to create a truly magical background for your wedding or other special event.
Our uplights will bring your wedding or other special event to life, dresses, your
flowers and the room will all work together to create an inviting
entertaining space.
The
secret lies in the type of lighting, where to place the lighting, and
using it to enhance and boost the already beautiful aspects of your
special occasion.
How Uplighting Works: Our DJ lighting uplights are placed on the floor facing the wall or the element of the room you
would like to illuminate. Most clients want to add color to their room
(Pink, Blue, Red, Cyan, Green, Yellow, White or a combination of these
colors is available). We use Wireless LED lighting exclusively for
events where we provide uplighting. These are the safest and most
environmentally friendly lighting options because there are no bulbs to
burn out or replace and lights draw very little energy and there are no
wires that guests can trip over and with no wires we can put the DJ lighting
uplights anywhere!
Uplighting Effects: Just understanding what is possible with uplights is helpful. Here are some basic effects that are achievable with uplighting.
Washes of Color: The
most popular effect is to provide washes of color or colors around the
room. They can either be set to a static color or fade through colors at
varying speeds. You may want a static color as guests arrive and
through dinner but the lights to slowly fade through the dancing portion
of the evening or just leave them on a static color setting.
Under Table Uplighting: This
effect can look really great with a bar or the head table. Having white
linens surrounding the table and placing a light or lights inside the
table can add washes of color to the physical table in the room and look
really cool.
Architectural Lighting: Lighting
up the exit of the room or venue can be a nice effect for the photos at
night time. If you have a really unique venue, or otherwise would like
to set the mood on the outside of the venue as well as the inside,
placing LED uplights outside can be a very dramatic effect.
Lighting in the Big Picture: When
coming up with a budget for your wedding or other special event think
about DJ lighting. For a fraction of the cost of extra flowers, favors, or
other types of decorations you can add the elegance and impact of
painting with light to your wedding or other special event. Lighting not
only works well during the entire event but it allows your flowers and
other decorations to shine later on in the evening. When it's dark for
the reception guests always notice the lighting and continually comment
on how much it adds to their event. It looks great in the photos as
well, turning ordinary candid's during dancing into the beautiful event
that your wedding or other special event deserves to be.
