All Around Amazing Experience!

Stage Right Lighting was amazing to work with. Sydney and her team made it simple for us to have the most elegant and beautiful wedding humanly possibly. They offered for us to come to the warehouse and look at some examples, but due to busy work schedules, we were unable to make that happen. It ended up not mattering in the long run because the photos they shared gave us the perfect vision of what they could accomplish. The result was stunning and we are so grateful for this team! Thank you so much for making our dream wedding day come true!

Book stage right lighting!

Couldn’t recommend more! They made my vision a reality and then some!!! Everything was perfect from the draping, to the chandeliers down the aisle, to the champagne wall! Someone was there on site the whole time making sure the uplighting fit every moment! I couldn’t imagine my wedding without this team!

Above and beyond

I worked with Kacee and Sydney for my wedding and they truly went above and beyond for our wedding and brought my vision to life. They also really caught onto the “vibe” I was going for and made great suggestions for additions I didn’t even know were possible, like a custom designed gobo light shining onto the pool making the perfect center piece and focal point at our venue! If they didn’t offer things I was looking for they gave me guidance. Stage right really set the mood for our wedding and I would highly recommend working with them!

Beautiful lighting & great service

We contacted Stage Right WAAAY late in the wedding planning process due to a misunderstanding of rentals & uncertainty about the weather. They were able to work with us on short notice & we got a beautifully decorated & lit tent for our reception. We specifically worked with Kacee who was flexible, responsive, & helped mitigate a stressful situation. Very happy with the team at Stage Right.

Exceeded Expectations for Our Wedding!

We hired Stage Right Lighting for our wedding, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! From the first consultation to the big day, the team was professional, creative, and so easy to work with. The lighting transformed our venue into something out of a dream – it created the perfect romantic atmosphere for our ceremony and reception. The uplighting added such an elegant touch, softening the hardness of the Aviation Museum.

The team worked seamlessly with our other vendors, and the setup was quick and efficient. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the lighting was! We’re so grateful for Stage Right Lighting for making our special day even more unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone looking to elevate their wedding!

Professional, coordinated team~

I didn't realize how much it would take to decorate the barn with draperies and lighting -- wow! Stage Right showed up on time and worked with focus all day and as a team, transforming the space. They did show in the most discrete way possible both in setup and take-down, not interfering a bit with other wedding prep going on. If they didn't have a big truck, you'd barely notice they were there they are so smooth!

Wedding Wow!!

Staged Right lighting added the much needed wow factor to our wedding! Our October wedding and reception was held at a hotel in the ballrooms. The ballroom divider had to be pulled to separate the ceremony room from the reception room. I however didn’t want the ugly wall divider to be visible in our ceremony; the white drapery along with romantic uplighting provided by Staged Right did just the trick and gave the elegant aesthetic we were looking for. It truly looked like a fairytale!!

When last minute changes to the room layout came about during the week of the wedding, the Staged Right team adjusted to flip the room and pull the room divider draping down with no issue and minimal additional charge because we now needed to utilize the full ballroom for our reception. Our reception room with changing uplighting around the perimeter of the entire ballroom was beautiful and changed with the mood throughout the evening. As a finishing touch, our wedding Gobo sign with our names and wedding date provided by Staged Right was the perfect touch to feature behind our sweetheart table! For the professionalism, pricing, and day of execution, Staged Right was the perfect choice for us. I couldn’t recommend them more! Also, we received a copy of our Gobo sign as an ornament to add to our Christmas tree our first Christmas together married. Such a thoughtful touch!

Loved working with the folks at Stage Right. Not only did they give great recommendations, but they also purchased the lights I was looking for that absolutely made the look all come together. I really appreciated their guidance and expert opinions.

Magical Transformers

Stage Right Lighting turned our church hall into an absolute fairytale! They truly made our vision come into light and then some! The twinkle lights, mood lighting, sparkulars, and teamwork was top notch. They were not only talented but they were punctual, answered all our questions, and were so great to work with overall. Kacee along with our planner Holly especially, they made sure everything was organised and always made us feel heard.

I am so happy we trusted them with our wedding day. They absolutely nailed it.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
