Lauren T. Sent on 11/03/2022Worth Every Penny and More!
I want to first mention that lighting is one of those wedding items you think you don't need. You do. Take it from me, it's worth spending on something that you're guests will experience all night long and to remove the absolute headache of doing it yourself. Steve was so helpful and he did an amazing job stringing the lights across the barn at Mount Gulian Historic Site in Beacon, NY!! The lighting made ALL of the difference and our guests could not get over how amazing the space looked!! The barn add some string lights in it already on the columns, but once Steve worked his magic it completely changed everything! He is an absolute must at Mount Gulian and anywhere else you are planning an event. His pricing is fair and the whole process was seamless! -

Steve was responsive, professional, and great to work with! We absolutely loved how the lighting came out! It changed the whole mood of the room and provided the perfect amount of lighting for dancing. Pricing was very reasonable as well. Would highly recommend!Hourglass Lighting's reply:

Best wedding vendor ever!!
We had a wonderful experience with Hourglass Lighting - one of our favorite vendors for the wedding overall. Steve was an absolute pleasure to work with - he's responsive, friendly, and flexible. When COVID hit and we had to postpone, they gave us a heads up that most of their clients were pushing their dates out, and encouraged us to do the same. We heard so many horror stories about venues and COVID (mostly financial), so Steve's approach was most welcome. Their dance floor string lighting and amber uplighting was so stunning, we got compliments all evening. The price was extremely competitive, and the service was top notch. If you're still looking for a decorator - I'd hire Hourglass again in an instant!!!Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Dear Sarah,
Thank you for being so flexible and understanding during an extremely chaotic and industry devastating time. Providing services for your wedding really brought joy to our hearts. Wishing you both the best!

Professional, creative, responsive, flexible vendor!
Steve and the crew at Hourglass Lighting were spectacular to work with. Steve is super responsive and was open to our ideas. He went out of his way to help us put up additional decor outside of the tent lighting, including hanging some pennant banners for us, which was really helpful in setting my mind at ease as I had a million other DIY things to deal with! The space Hourglass Lighting created outside of our tent with bistro lights was integral to the fun and success of our party, as it invited guests to explore outside of the tent. We would highly recommend working with Hourglass Lighting, and would use their services again if we ever throw another party!Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Thank you Emily. It was wonderful working together! We all felt privileged to be part of your wedding in such a beautiful setting. -

Steve & co. did a great job and dealing with them was extremely easy, in part probably because they've worked with our venue (the Garrison) pretty regularly. Thanks!Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Hi Caitlin,
Thank you for letting us be part of your wedding and for taking time to write a review! It’s true we are at Garrison Country Club quite often. The views of the Hudson River Valley are spectacular and everyone there is so wonderful to work with. -

loved working with Steve from Hourglass!
Hourglass did a wonderful job for our wedding!! We did not want to have to go through our venue or band for uplighting ($$$$) and I'm so happy I found Steve from Hourglass! The warm lighting added such a nice touch to our event when the lights went down.Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Thank you for letting us be apart of your special day Alyssa it was a pleasure working together! All the best to you both.

Lighting transformed our venue! Amazing service! Great value! Fantastic Vendor!!!!
We hired Hourglass lighting for uplighting and pin spot lighting for centerpieces for our wedding and it transformed our venue!! After seeing pictures of wedding centerpieces with and without pin spot lighting we knew this was something that we wanted. Our wedding reception was at the Omni Providence Hotel and after doing A LOT of research and talking to WAYY too many lighting vendors we finally found Steve and knew he was our guy. Steve was super easy to work with, he is an expert in lighting and knew exactly what we needed to set the tone and ambiance for our wedding and told us what we didn't need and where we could save money. Steve told us we didn't need pin spot lighting on every table we should just do it on the tall centerpieces, cake table, and the head table to really make those spots pop. And in terms of the uplighting, he knew exactly how many we needed and where to put them and what colors to set etc. For the service, quality, and value there is no one in New England who can compete with Hourglass Lighting.Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Hi Kori
Thank you for the opportunity to be part of your wedding! It was truly a beautiful event. We loved working with Michael and speaking with your dad. The drapery company was wonderful too. All the best to you both and Happy Holliday’s. -

Theresa Sent on 06/02/2018If I could give 9 million stars I would. My now husband and I planned on paying for the majority of our wedding ourselves, so when I was booking vendors I struggled so much trying to decide what my wedding actually needed, and what I was being brainwashed by the industry into thinking I needed. So being honest I struggled whether to book or not being my venue offered up lighting for a couple hundred cheaper . And when your in that wedding planning panic you with these huge numbers coming at your bCk to back to back, you loose sight of reality and at least
For me, tried to only spend where I felt absolutely necessary. It wasn’t until I read some Testimonial on Steve’s website that made me book. It said something along the lines of having a DJ/venue provide your lighting is like having your florist take pics- they can but it’s not their speciality . I booked and I can confidently say it was the best decision I made. You don’t even realiZe how much the lighting sets the tone for the ambiance and overall vibe of your event. And needless to say Steve blew away my expectations. Steve was just a genuine joy to work with. He was so understanding to my hectic schedule as a nurse and worked with my hours to communicate whenever I needed. He helped me form the vision I wanted but didn’t know how to put into words. I could honestly go on for yours giving him accolades. All I can Say if for brides crunching numbers and trying to figure out what you absolutey need and dont, hiring Steve was single-handledly one of the best decisions I ever made. Ant other wedding I’ve ever been too, the uplighting was so intense, any picture I personally took was drowned out by whatever color the newlyweds chose . Everything else concerning uplifting that I’ve ever seen Seemed tacky and harsh. Mine was so beautiful it literally brought tears to my eyes when I was able to first walk in my venue . Perfection is an understatement .Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Thank you so much Theresa wow what a wonderful review! I understand how hectic things can be and glad we could help. All the best to you both. -
Nicole Sent on 12/04/2017By the time our wedding arrived, Steve truly felt like family!! He and his crew were so easy to work with and the lighting pulled our entire venue together. Steve provided suggestions and worked with us to turn our tented reception into a dream come true. We received compliments all night and even our venue commented they had never seen their tent look so beautiful! Would highly recommend!!

Cheryl Sent on 10/17/2017The first word that came to mind when I saw the lighting at my daughter's wedding venue, the Pavilion at Mohonk Mountain House, was SPECTACULAR! Steve Fernandez of Hourglass Lighting did an outstanding job of creating a "magical" ambiance that was in perfect balance with the overall beauty of the outdoor pavilion and its natural surroundings.
Hourglass Lighting's reply:
Thanks Cheryl,
It was nice meeting you all and such a pleasure to be part Krysti's wedding! Thank you for posting photos too! :)
