Elegant Event Lighting

beautiful!

brought the space together and made the dance floor more intimate while in a very large tent. The Elegant Event Lighting team (and Maureen who assisted in selecting the style and coordinating everything) was AMAZING to work with. We had really great vendors overall, and Elegant Event Lighting was probably my favorite! Maureen really listened to my thoughts, wants, and needs, provided examples, advice, and constructive feedback. Elegant Event Lighting helped make my day so special and carefree! So grateful to them!!

andeliers and how it made the reception look like it was out of a fairytale (or current day influencer wedding)! Maureen from EEL was very helpful and easy to work with!

in awe :) thank you to their entire team!

on in the same place and Elegant Event Lighting made our dreams come true. It was absolutely beautiful and we received so many compliments from our guests. HIGHLY recommend Elegant Event Lighting!!

osal. The were wonderful to work with despite me contacting them last minute and I’m so glad I found them for my extra lighting.

highly recommend Jay.

ful during our face-to-face meeting at the showroom. He kept me on track to get all of my (many) ideas in line and used his expertise to ensure that our ceremony and reception space looked cohesive and beautiful. All in all, the end result was stunning, the lighting and backdrop were perfect and the wrapped white dance floor was the icing on top of the cake. I received so many compliments on the overall feel and decor of the wedding and I give Jay and his team a lot of that credit! I couldn't recommend Elegant Event Lighting more for excellence in service and exceptional creativity and knowledge to bring your wedding vision to life.

the process beyond easy and never had a concern once with them. Highly recommend using Elegant Event Lighting!!

cation leading up to the event was a little rough. We were given a representative who seemed very nice but she did not reply to my emails for quite some time and I had to go straight to Jay. We were planning our wedding out of state, so this was pretty stressful...generally you just want answers and don't want to feel the need to go through a few different people to get them when planning a wedding with multiple vendors. Jay is extremely knowledgeable at what he does and very experienced but for someone who has been in this business for a while, I really didn't feel he understood that this was our first time doing anything like this and that we didn't have the knowledge he did. For example, we already let him know we were on a bit of a budget. As we found more money, we expanded where we could: including a vinyl dance floor. It was never mentioned that the monogram was extra anywhere, we were just told "you could have a monogram on your dance floor if you would like". I didn't discover this information till about a week or two before our wedding when we received our invoice and I had a mini panic attack. When I spoke to Jay, I felt like an idiot...which is not how you want to feel before your wedding. I spoke to another vendor to get a quote and they explained to me that the monogram is essentially a decal that is stuck to the dance floor like a sticker...hence the additional expense...makes perfect sense, just wish my actual vendor took the time to tell me that. All in all, they're definitely worth it! The room was perfect. I would just say my other vendors were way better at communication and explaining things in laymen's terms.

ng about event lighting so his expertise was really valuable. The pricing is fair and the lighting and decor turned out perfectly! So happy we chose EEL - thanks for making our vision come to life.

tablecloths we had chosen. They were very easy to contact and setup everything with. Overall, we had a great experience using them!

wedding. Jay you and your crew knocked it out of the park!! Thank you again and again for the most perfect creation!! Lori & Malcolm H.

oming sign which had been in my family for 3 generations and we found out a few days before the wedding that the easel we had rented would not hold the weight of the mirror. Jay and his team jumped into action for us and custom made an easel-which matched the arch he had previously fabricated for our ceremony and reception-and it was beautiful. Even though we contacted him over 18 months before our wedding, he was always immediately responsive to us on email and no detail was overlooked. We also rented a 12’ suspension ring for our suspended floral decoration over the dance floor and he expertly worked with CBG to remove the center lighting fixture, coordinated with Life in Bloom for the assembly and then installed the completed piece. We were so happy to have chosen Jay and his team and would recommend them highly.

s, months, and finally came up with a dream vision for the ceremony and tent! I did my research with my now husband, and found Elegant Event Lighting. Being out of state planning a wedding, WE knew it would take more effort. Well, we were wrong! Jay and his team at EEL made our vision come to life even across the states. We had one meeting face to face to go over pictures, ideas, and a plan to make our dream wedding come to life, and his team really put it in action! Jay remained in constant communication with us from Arizona to Illinois. He not only had a positive attitude but made our wedding feel special and unique! He was determined to do what it takes to make all of our doubts diminish! The day of came and just WOW!!!! All of the effort his team put in, came to life in the perfect picture of our vision! We had an unexpected down pour right before the ceremony, but the lights held up and looked even more romantic then expected! The ambiance in the tent was just gorgeous and the chandelier above the dance floor! Our guests still compliment how beautiful it was... Now, don't even get us started on the ceremony 4 pole arch. We knew doing a unique "backyard wedding," that Darlene wanted the spectacular wedding feel! She also knew that she didn't want what any other venue had.... After numerous conversations, Jay brought her whimsical ceremony to life! We had a beautiful ivory ceremony arch/back drop with greenery! How romantic! We got to marry (the love of our life) under the most drop dead gorgeous setting. Jay and the Elegant Event Lighting Team, your effort (even with the last minute changes due to weather) really put ourselves at ease! We knew we were in great hands and could enjoy the day from sunrise till the party ended past 1 a.m... We will continue to recommend you to anyone that wants their unique wedding vision to come to life! Thanks again for making us feel special and that our wedding was unique and not just any wedding. We will never forget the love we felt that day. We still feel it on our picture wall in our living room, looking at the gorgeous memories that were made in the most beautiful tent and most elegant ceremony arch. One day, we will recommend you to our children :) Darlene and Matt

nterpieces, and our names on the wall. I was so excited to see how beautifully it turned out. It made our pictures turn out stunning (we don't have professional pics back yet, but the ones friends and family took). Jay was so easy to work with and so helpful giving suggestions on what would make the room special!

ir company had previously worked at our venue, making him more knowledgeable of what he can and cannot do to the ballroom, eliminating the back and forth between the venue and the décor company. He helped me stay within my budget and still achieve the look I had in mind. To be honest, they actually went above my expectations! Our venue was already beautiful, they simply elevated it to be more romantic, giving us and our guests that WOW factor we are looking to have as soon as you walk in the room. And when we started having technical difficulties with our DJ company, Jay was quick to jump in and offer his expertise with audio and visual. He certainly saved the day!! I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for décor and lighting company. I wish I found out about them prior to booking my other vendors, I’m sure they would have made everything else go seamlessly on the day of our wedding if that was the case.

mely format. Highly suggest this company.

efinitely made our wedding ceremony elegant and everything I wanted. Katie worked with my event planner, but I heard no complaints from either. Definitely recommend them.

y recommend for your wedding.

a ceiling canopy with drapes and lights over the dance floor. I also specified that I wanted the current window drapes at the venue to be covered in white drapes but to leave the windows themselves uncovered to let all the light through. I was completely blown away on the day of! It was everything I had imagined and more. So many of our guests were commenting on how beautiful the drapes and lights looked. Even the venue staff were saying that the room had never looked more beautiful.

even more majestic and breath-taking than I knew possible. We were in LOVE with the white vinyl dance floor they provided and the colored personalized monogram! It made such a difference in the room over the venue’s natural brown dance floor. We have gotten so many compliments from guests about how beautiful and truly elegant everything looked! Jay, who helped coordinate everything for us, was always quick to respond and offered many creative ideas to help us plan our décor! He was very accommodating and flexible even days before the wedding when I added a few last minute touches. I’m confident you won't regret choosing EEL to help make your big day extra special! They truly helped my dream “fairytale” wedding become a reality. Thanks again Jay!

table and we also had a simple white backdrop behind the band and that turned out beautifully! Could not recommend them more highly

d his team!

tures!

. Elegant Event Lighting did a spectacular job with draping to transform a plain, functional room into an elegant, romantic space. They also provided cafe lights for the back patio, which were visible thru the windows in the room. Our hope was to dance under the lights, but the weather wasn't conducive for that. Nonetheless the lights on the patio did add to the magic of the evening.

ible affordable price! I highly recommend using them to help make your reception one of a kind!

g our reception!

erent options that would work with what we wanted and keeping with our esthetic and financial goals! Would absolutely work with them again!

d, and all the way communication was a breeze with Valerie. I would recommend them highly to anyone looking to make their wedding day picture perfect!!

dd Cafe Globe Lights to our venue to brighten it up a bit and we were not disappointed! The extra lighting provided the added sparkle and looked beautiful. It totally transformed the space. Not only was did EEL provide great service but the end result was gorgeous. I would highly recommend working with EEL for you event!

le, with fairy lights, that turned out better than I even imagined. Their draping really brought together our entire reception. I will say it is a little bit pricey, but I really have nothing to compare to, and it was 100% worth the bit of a splurge it was for us.

arboretum spectacular and made a blank room into a true vision! Melissa Lustgarten

d they made my fairytale backdrop even better than I could ever have imagined. They reached out to my banquet hall and worked directly with them on all logistics. I have no idea when it arrived or got picked up, or any of the details I didn't need to know because they took care of it all. I literally told them what I had in mind and then they took care of the rest. They turned my dated banquet hall into the MOST BEAUTIFUL fairytale and I can not say enough how grateful I am for them!!

ttle decor items just wouldn't cut it. Jay and his team were great, responsive and extremely helpful when it came to the weeks before during our walk through. Everything turned out incredible, they are certainly experts in their field!

utiful and they took it down in less than 15 minutes during cocktail hour-EEL staff were so efficient and wonderful. We are so happy we found them!

made the venue. From the second we met with Jay we knew we wanted to work with EEL - he listened to all of our ideas, gave us suggestions, and showed us all of the different lighting and fabric options in the showroom in back. After we signed a contract with them, my husband and I were amazed at how quick they were to respond to emails, to send us updated invoices, and to help us with any concerns we might have. After meeting with so many wedding vendors while planning a wedding, in can be so frustrating to have people who just don't respond to emails or phone calls, but with EEL we never waited more than 24 hours for a response. For our final walk-through at our venue, they sent someone from Elegant Events to meet us there so we could go over any final details in person. The day of our wedding, my mother-in-law and grandma were at our venue early and were able to watch them set up our fabric backdrop and all of the lighting. They couldn't believe the transformation! I wish more of our guests had the chance to see the "before" version of our venue because EEL was able to turn a blank loft space into such a beautiful and elegant venue. We could not be happier that we chose to work with EEL on our big day and will continue to recommend them to everyone we know!

k care of everything from there. Valerie worked directly with my venue to schedule setup/breakdown making it beyond easy for me. I will recommend them to everyone looking for event lighting!

ho were very efficient and did everything to make the client happy! We look forward to many more events together!

turned out. Highly recommend them.

g my reception. They were great to work with and knew exactly how to make the reception space perfect! Thanks again!

communication was great from everyone there. Once we stepped into the reception area we were blown away with the draping and the lighting and couldn't have been any happier.

l cozy and elegant. Thank you, EEL, for making our night feel so special!

tion of the space and for working with my day-of coordinator to ensure everything was magical. I would highly recommend them! It was simply perfect!!

o the ceremony backdrop that I had envisioned. They even went so far as to take pictures of the mounted panels in their warehouse, to give me an idea of what they would look like for my ceremony! (AND modified the look as well!) EEL revised my wedding plan/vision no fewer than 5 times, and were happy to do so each time. I would recommend EEL to anyone with lighting needs. Weddings, corporate events - ANYTHING. They talk you through your ideas and visions - make them work for you and make them a reality - no matter your budget.

g space and we couldn't have been happier. We worked with Jay who was very knowledgable and prompt but also easy going and fun to work with. Would recommend Elegant Events Lighting to anyone in need of uplighting, pin spotting for floral arrangements, or drapery! They are the best. Thank you again Elegant Event Lighting!

nd brought it to life. The pipe and drape and the chandeliers they provided were so beautiful. Also, I believe a few days before the wedding, I emailed Jay asking for a specific request last minute. He was very responsive and made sure it happened. I would recommend them to anyone looking for decor on their wedding day!

he was able to pull her vision and put it into a reality. Jay and Valerie were an absolute pleasure to work with. Tjhey were extremely professional, responsive and flexible. We had many questions in the beginning and they came through for us and took the time to answer each question/concern. As we approached the wedding day, we felt completely confident that the vision would be creaively accomplished and EEL DID NOT DISAPPOINT in any way, shape or form. They hung the cafe lighting randomly throught the wood vaulted ceiling and placed the paper lanterns perfectly over the monogrammed dance floor. Valerie was awesome when it was time to select the perfect monogram for the dance floor. She offered suggestions and ultimately created exactly the look our daughter wanted. Thank you EEL for working so diligently with our venue to handle all the arranging and logistics so that we did not have to. Look no further, if you are looking for a unique, creative way to enhance your venue, EEL is the essential choice. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND EEL! Thank you, the venue looked perfect!!! We received so many compliments and could not be any happier with our choice in hiring EEL!!!

warm lighting also made all the difference to add an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere. All set-up was completely finished before we arrived, and tear-down was also taken care of by the company. We are so happy with the professional service provided by Elegant Events!

enhance the room with lighting and drapes to create a beautiful atmosphere for our reception.

nk you so much for your great service and always being so responsive! I would for sure recommend to anyone

mented the natural interest of the space. We didn't have much coordinating to do with Jay at all, jut gave him the date, location and time! He was very knowledgeable with what was to be done and how to do it, which really put me at ease.

e wanted to create and we could not be happier. They were fantastic, arrived on time, and executed flawlessly. Jay Sims, my main contact at EEL, was wonderful to work with throughout the planning and organization of the wedding. He was professional and responsive every step of the way, and he even did an on-site visit with me a year in advance to ensure accurate measurement and lighting needs. It was perfect. I will certainly look to EEL for future events - they were fantastic!

with ideas they had to make our day very special. They are top notch and I recommend everyone call them when planning an event. They were awesome.

she is planning her day. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking and I am sure I will be using them again in the future. Thank you to the entire team for making my day amazing.

L responded to our request right away and worked with us to figure out how to get the exact look we wanted! They made something that started off stressful extremely stress-free. We knew we were in good hands the second we signed with them. They are a first-class team that is extremely professional!

ing for our reception room, and it totally transformed the space for the better - it didn't even look like the same room! We had globe lighting for dancing outside, and it was beautiful. EEL really knows how to deliver - could not have asked for anything more.

r names. We highly recommend working with this company. Thanks again!
