So, so worth the investment!

We used 27 Studios for upgraded lighting at our Haven Street Ballroom for our December 2019 wedding. The rainfall lighting we selected for over our dancefloor created the entire mood for our industrial modern wedding. It also functionally created just enough light for the dancefloor and assured that lighting for our pictures was sufficient. At first, I underestimated the cost of the light installation, but after I saw how hard the 27 Studios team worked on our wedding day, I totally understand the cost and I assure you it is WORTH IT. The 27 Studios team was among the first to arrive the day of, and worked all morning to string the lights. When it was determined that the lights were hanging a little too low, they went back and shortened all of the strands until the room was right. The exercised careful attention to detail and their work made the room. I am so happy with our decision to hire 27 Studios for our beautiful wedding lighting!

The studio was great during the entire preparation ramping up to the wedding. The team made sure the venue was fully and nicely decorated ahead of time. On the big day I was surprised at how good the place looked. It was definitely what I envisioned. Darren was very helpful during the entire process. He is passionate about what he does and every call we had in preparation for the wedding he was patient and helpful trying to adapt to all our needs and requests. I wholeheartedly recommend 27 studios for anyone's wedding in Maryland!

27 Studios will light the wedding of your dreams!

I don't know too much about lighting so I knew I had to hire an absolute rockstar to make sure our wedding was well lit. We got married in a museum so it was critical that the lighting was good enough to make it look like a party as opposed to just a bunch of exhibits. We also had outdoor space that we wanted people to be able to enjoy. 27 Studios came up with a whole plan and the final product was so amazingly fantastic. Absolutely recommend them!

Beautiful Lighting

I contacted 27 Studios a few weeks before my wedding to provide uplighting around the perimeter of the reception space and pinspotting on the wedding cake. Despite the quick turnaround, Darius was super accommodating, incredibly responsive, and competitive with his rates. He was punctual and timely with setup and breakdown, and showed great skill in placement and design. His lighting arrangement helped the space feel warm and inviting, fun and whimsical. I appreciate Darius’ professionalism and willingness to drive down to Richmond to work with a venue not previously in his rolodex. I recommend his services for anyone looking for a lighting and AV professional in the DMV area.

I worked with Castro through my wedding planner (Bodamaestra) and were glad that they were available for last minute draping for the sweetheart table. Off the picture that the wedding planner provided, and uplighting by the DJ (Torrechez Entertainment), the draping looked amazing. It was just what i envisioned. The video and pictures look amazing thatnks to such a sweet backdrop.

Darren and his team at 27 Studios transformed our reception space into the exact Miami venue we hoped for!!
On a very cold and windy night our guests felt they had entered into tropical Miami before they even stepped in
the door. We had an amazing monogram and our house exterior was lit up to look very warm and inviting.
Then once inside the entire 4 floors were gorgeous. They did pin spots to highlight key elements such as
the wedding cake and the guest book. They were very professional both with set up and take down, I could
not have asked for a better look for our reception as well as a better company to work with. Thank you again
to Darren and 27 Studios!!

If you need lightning or pipe & drape, look no further.

I had a COVID wedding, originally planned for April 2020, then pushed to September 2020, then turned into a vow renewal reception in April 2021. Throughout changing the plan due to COVID, 27Studios was an incredible vendor. They were so flexible, no questions asked, that I think I cried out of joy each time they responded to my emails (and they are super responsive!). We originally had planned to use their services to provide us with pipe and drape, but that was no longer needed when our plans changed. Instead, they easily allowed us to switch that plan to a waterfall lighting plan above our dance floor - incredible!! I caught all my guests staring at the ceiling as if we had the stars indoors for our party (we held our event at Haven Street Ballroom). I was also super busy throughout the day, and when I was able to check out the progress of the space being decorated, I noticed the uplights we rented from them were perfectly placed - without direction from me. I was super pleased by 27Studio's work. Take a look at any picture of "waterfall lights" on instagram or pinterest, and you'll see what it looked like - but mine was the PERFECT version of what you find.

Seriously, why are you even looking elsewhere? Hire 27Studios! Their prices are incredibly - INCREDIBLY - reasonable and fair. Darren and Damian are awesome professionals in the industry, they kept me calm with their responsiveness, always answered my questions, carefully worked with me on a proposal (and another proposal, and another proposal) and if I could do it all again they would 1000% be hired. Note: my image is NOT a professional photo, and it does not do the actual waterfall light experience justice.

Both our caterer and wedding coordinator recommended Darren at 27 STUDIOS to us and we are very thankful they did! We were married in a barn on our farm and the reception was in a very large tent in the middle of a field, so this wasn’t the average wedding set-up. Darren and his team did everything we asked of them. His office is almost 2 hours from us, but he came out several times to do walkthroughs just to make sure everyone was on the same page. On top of the phenomenal service, their prices were very reasonable! We highly recommend 27 STUDIOS! Thank you Darren!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Darren at 27 Studios came highly recommended and I was fortunate enough to work with him for an event. He was incredibly professional, responsive, and flexible and although I expected nothing but the best, I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of work provided (custom gobo, uplighting, draping, etc.)! He was truly capable of creating an amazing ambience through lighting/draping and the compliments throughout the event were non-stop. If you have the opportunity to work with 27 Studios I would highly recommend it! You will not be disappointed!
