Bright Ideas | How to Mix Lighting Styles
When it comes to special occasions, ambience is everything and lighting is a key element to accomplish this. It sets the mood and highlights points of interest. What makes it more eye-catching is mixing in different styles of lighting to amplify the uniqueness of your celebration.
Eyes are always drawn towards the main lounge area so suspending medium size chandeliers and pendants at various heights over the entire arrangement creates a more completed vignette. We love how the woven design of our bohemian-inspired Patra Chandeliers also add a textural look as they beams a dim, dreamlike glow at night.
The dance floor is where the main entertainment will be held as guests get their groove on and large, statement lighting is the ticket. Whether you choose one large light or a cluster of several, more is more. We concentrated our oversized drum-shaped Kate Octagon Pendants in the center of the dance floor. Add depth with gobo lighting to project stencils of abstract patterns.
If it’s not the dance floor where the entertainment is it’s the bar area. Flank pairs of chandeliers that shine bright above with the drink station bar area larger than life Showcased here are Nero Chandeliers with its framed beehive-like silhouette exuding a sense of both structure and airiness.
Lighting doesn’t always have to be serious either. Incorporating something fun like our 10ft round Lighted Ring is a perfect backdrop for a photo op, and even more personal with a custom made signage of your choosing.
