Gary & Mirna’s Hotel Del Coronado Wedding Lighting

Gary & Mirna held their magnificent wedding reception at the Hotel Del Coronado and we were asked to light it up with a large supply of golden yellow uplighting and a custom gobo monogram featuring their names wrapped in an ornate pattern.  They sent us images of their wedding stationary that showed the ornate pattern and we worked together to create the matching gobo monogram design. The “golden yellow” uplighting color was selected to provide a dramatic effect, but still soft...

William and Suzanne’s Wedding at the Hilton Torrey Pines

William and Suzanne got married! And they did it at the Hilton Torrey Pines which is one of the great wedding venues in San Diego. It was my second time in the Grande Ballroom at the Hilton Torrey Pines in the last few months.  I was in the same ballroom set, with the same floor plan back in February.  Ironically, I worked with Thomas of Aqua Vivus (videographer) at that same wedding too. They got married down on the lawn where a harpist supplied music and the hotel supplied the sound system...

Brian & Monique’s Coronado Marriott Wedding

Brian and Monique got married at the Coronado Marriott and it was a great day for sure. Monique ensured that everything was top notch, from the ceremony details to the tent draping and lighting to the florals on each table.  Even though it was extremely hot, brightly lit by the sun and a long day – it was a big success.  For me, it was the 2nd wedding in a row at the Coronado Marriott outside in the tent (Too bad I couldn’t leave everything there.) The ceremony was on the West Lawn...

Marina Village Wedding String Lighting & Uplights

Was glad to help out Zoe’s wedding at Marina Village by providing champagne colored uplighting and string lights inside the Captain’s Room.  We put a total of 12 champagne colored uplights around the room and wrapped each of the 4 columns in white string lights. Since we did not provide DJ/MC Services, there are not alot of pictures of the reception itself, but got a few at the end as they were cleaning up.  I got to meet up with Zoe and her family after the wedding and they LOVED...
