    I didn't use Illuminated Events for a wedding but would not hesitate to for a second. Brittany is a pleasure and is extremely thorough. My Company (TYR Sport) was planning on purchasing permanent lighting through Blue Haze, Illuminated Events parent company. But due to our very tight time restrictions and the inability to source the products we really wanted timely, we decided to rent. Brittany and her team came in with very little notice and took care of our lighting needs. Because of the structure of the rooms and the types of events we host; the rental lights we had to use were HUGE (but did exactly what we needed them to) and they ensured us that for a permanent solution the lights would be smaller and they'd build them up into our exposed wood ceiling and make it less obvious. They also let us use one of their control panels so we could manage the lighting on our own. Once the lights were up and they showed us how to adjust them, our team started setting up pipe and drape that was purchased through another vendor. Unfortunately, we were sent incorrect poles and drape for our space, but Illuminated jumped in and kindly offered theirs. Brittany, Shawn and the rest of their team went well above expectations in taking care of us. Not only were they reasonably priced, but they were quick, efficient, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend using them for any of your lighting needs.

    I found Illuminated Events at a Bridal Show I went to with my mother and mother in law. I worked with Kaylyn and she helped me so much through the planning process. She was always quick to answer any questions I had. We rented a white dance floor, draping and an arch. The arch with drapery turned out so nicely and created a great focal point where our ceremony was taking place. The white dance floor was perfect and fit the design and look that my husband and I were trying to achieve for the wedding, and really added such a nice touch to our reception space. We are very pleased with the service and rentals provided to us!

    Illuminated Events's reply:

    Thank you for taking the time to write out a review. We are so happy that your event went smoothly and it turned out to be everything you wanted. Cheers to you both! We wish you the best on this next chapter of your lives.

    Alissa at Illuminated Events has made my production goals a breeze! Shes always super responsive to my inquiries at almost any time of the day (pretty important since clients usually tend to throw curveballs!) and her company's pricing can't be beat! I've steadily dealt with Illuminated Events ever since my first project months ago and plan to definitely continue! TOP NOTCH SERVICE! A+++

    Alissa at Illuminated Events did an excellent job for my wedding! She was extremely responsive and made it really easy to convey ceremony and reception ideas. My draping turned out fabulous for the ceremony and reception!! Their prices were very reasonable for draping and I would highly recommend them!

    I worked closely with Alissa and I just wanted to say how pleased I was with her! From start to finish she was very involved. She knew the business and offered great suggestions. She listened to our needs and excutecuted the day perfectly! We are always pleased working with her and her team. Ciao Bella Wedding Planning has used their services for many weddings and we are always thrilled to give them business! I always know we are in good hands and it's hard to rely on good vendors in this industry! Illuminated events and Alissa are all very professional I would highly recommend them and will continue to book Weddings with them!

    Thanks again Alissa!

    This production company made absolute magic happen for my bride and groom, who had a mashup Supernatural / Harry Potter/ Walking Dead themed wedding! They created an enormous LED screen walls, and engineered the videos and audios for special moments like the ceremony (Harry Potter's Great Hall, wth floating candles and pretty lighting), Grand entrance, and Bouquet toss. Their team managed to adjust to the rainy weather we were having and we flipped the reception space into a ceremony space in under a half an hour, starting the wedding exactly on time and as planned.

    They also engineered a projection mapped wedding cake, that looked like it was "bleeding" throughout the night, and had the Harry Potter flames from the Goblet of Fire dancing around it for the cake cutting.

    The staff was a joy to work with. They were always on time, following up with questions via phone, text, or in person meetings, and I would recommend them to any couple who has creative and unusual visions for their wedding day!

    Illuminated Events's reply:

    Thank you Michelle! We had such a great time working with you and loved the creative challenge your couple brought to the table. Although the rain was unfortunate, Im glad we were able to help pull it off and make it look as if it was part of the plan the entire time! Such a huge feeling of satisfaction for us all, it is definitely a wedding we will never forget!

    Alissa was our rep and she was awesome! Throughout the entire planning process she was very responsive and easy to work with. We had very last minute venue change 3 days before our reception and she made it so easy for us to change up the lighting for the new venue. The team, on the day of the reception, putting everything up and breaking down was great..they were courteous and efficient.

    Illuminated Events was absolutely amazing!!! They did all of my lighting and several decor pieces. I would say they put together my dream wedding and beyond. They made suggestions too which was great, as their goal was to make my day perfect. They sure did achieve that. The responsiveness from them was phenomenal...they were actually the most reponsive wedding vendor I had. I would definitely recommend them to other people without hesitation.

    Illuminated Events's reply:

    It was easy to go above and beyond for a bride as easy to work with as you! Thank you for letting us be apart of it. I wouldn't have spent my New Years Eve another way!

    I found Alissa, and Illuminated Events on wedding wire for my client, and decided to schedule a meeting with them for my bride. The initial meeting was great, their show room is gorgeous, and Alissa made myself, and the bride and her family very comfortable. From there forward Alissa was great, she responded to my many emails quickly, and she was very patient with my bride on design decisions and payments. Illuminated Events provided draping and uplighting for the wedding, as well as a vinyl gobo, which EVERYONE loved! Everything was amazing, the bride and her family were extremely happy, and I was very impressed with the final product! 5 stars to Alissa and her team at Illuminated Events!

    Illuminated Events's reply:

    Thank you Brittanie! It was great to work with you and I look forward to work with you together in the future.

    Alissa and her team did an amazing job for Crystal's wedding. They paid attention to every detail to the wedding production. We had roughly one hour to flip the ceremony to a reception and they did it with time to spare. I would definitely recommend Illuminated Events to anyone! It was a pleasure working with them!

    Illuminated Events's reply:

    Thanks Barbara! It was so great to work with a team member that had the same attention to detail and goal -- making the wedding a night to remember.

    We were absolutely stunned by the elegant and beautiful lighting arrangement that Jordan and the BHE team created for us. You have created an atmosphere that is charming and brilliant. Our friends have dubbed the Wedding of the Century. Everyone loved the lighting design, the patterns on the wall, and pin spots.

    We sincerely appreciated your thoroughness and follow through from the initial planning until our wedding day.

    Overall, you have exceeded our expectations. We would be honored to refer Jordan Parks and Blue Haze Entertainment to any of our guests for future events.

    We had our wedding in Tarzana, CA on 10/18/14. Illuminated Events made our wedding reception look amazing! Their staff is responsive, knowledgeable and easy to deal with.

    They have a variety of equipment to make your venue really pop. Our package included LED uplighting around the room, white dance floor with monogram, moving lights for the dance floor and a variety of other effects for the bar. They arrived for setup on time and finished the room without any delays. When the sun set our reception was just gorgeous. There was light in all the right places and accent lights on the head table & cake. Our guests shared pictures from their phones and we couldn't believe some of the photos they took. I mean our room looked beautiful before the sun went down, but when it did...Lighting really makes a difference! Illuminated Events was awesome to work with and they will help you elevate your venue look to another level.

    Thanks!!!

    Illuminated Events helped my wife and I have the best first dance at our wedding. Even though it was last minute, they were very professional, flexible on everything from pick-up and drop-off to even payment and how to use their Chauvet Nimbus. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone putting on an event, party, wedding, etc. Thanks again Illuminated Events!!!

    Alissa and the staff at Illuminated Events was wonderful to work with, and the final outcome was more than we could have ever hoped for! Alissa was very patient with our first (slightly difficult) wedding planner, and even setup a last-minute contingency plan when we thought we might have weather issues. I highly recommend Alissa and her staff!

    Jordan and her team at Illuminated Events were amazing to work with. They came in, and had everything put up in record time. The same with tear-down. Easy as pie!
    One thing I really appreciated being the Wedding Coordinator of the Bride and Groom was that on the day of the Wedding when I had a question, Jordan immediately answered her phone and put me at ease. Peace of mind on Wedding Day is invaluable.
    The lighting and draping they provided really pulled the decor together. I would recommend them to any of my Wedding Couples.

    Alissa is great to work with, she went above and beyond to make my event successful. Aside from the excellent customer service, she did an amazing job with the lighting design for my event. She works closely with a florist who equally did an amazing job. Thank you Alissa :)

    My best friends wedding was a week away. They forgot about the lighting, so I called illuminated events and they were able to do everything needed. I didn't think such extensive lighting could be done in such short notice but it was amaizing. It was a very large venue that required LOTS OF LIGHTING. Full concert stage with bands, singers. DJS. Plus trussing for dance lighting, it looked like a concert. Very well done. Each table has light on it and the ceiling has stunning patters projected on it. They were even able to get a custom name gobo made to project the grooms x2 names. I am a pro lighting guy and I was truly impressed by how fast they were able to get such extensive work done so quickly. My contact was Jordan and she was amaizing, she had every detail taken care of with no issues at all.

    This was a charity event with 6000 Football Fans. The planning and implementation was superb. We found their people, flexibility and willingness to collaborate was extraordinary.

    Professionals! Highly recommend them.
