Bay Stage Lighting: The Event Planning Process and Lighting

At what point in the planning process should lighting be introduced?

Preferably, as soon as the event’s overall décor theme is determined. When meeting with a lighting designer, you really need to have some idea as to what you want the design to accomplish. Details like venue and entertainment should already be decided upon, so a LD can ensure the design covers event specifics.

However, we know event planning is notorious for last minute add-ons. Find a well-established lighting company equipped with a large inventory of lighting equipment, and last minute orders shouldn’t be a problem. For example, Bay Stage Lighting’s Customer Service Counter located within the 15,000 sq. ft. warehouse provides professional, face-to-face assistance to customers.

Unique design tools like Bay Stage Lighting’s Dream Theater, has the technology to digitally walk clients through a 3D rendering of their event design. Not only is the event design seen with realism and accuracy, but design changes can be made with a click of a button and seen instantly; making last minute event design changes easy as pie.
