John Farr Lighting provided excellent lighting for our wedding at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Old Town Alexandria, VA. Their lighting really transformed the space! Our venue ...
recommended we hire John Farr due to their familiarity with the venue, and that definitely paid off. Planning with John Farr was easy - we emailed them our color scheme, had a few emails and a quick call to discuss, and then with how well they knew the venue, they executed it perfectly. Our venue looked beautiful from the pre-ceremony to the reception speeches to the end of the dance floor. The venue is a former torpedo factory that now holds artists’ studios, and the lighting allowed all that history to shine while also creating a beautiful, intimate, cool wedding vibe.
We had John Farr light our wedding at the Torpedo Factory Art Center. He was responsive, creative and understanding. He understood what my husband and I wanted and executed it beau...
tifully. He was even flexible when we added things like extra lighting and a specialty projection that my husband designed. 110% recommended!
Beautiful lighting design. Our July 31, 2021 wedding was originally planned for May 30, 2020, and we postponed the wedding twice. Over the entire time we coordinated with John- ove...
r two years- he was super responsive, patient, and kind. John transformed our venue, the Torpedo Factory Art Center, into a beautiful and magical space for our wedding!
I just had my wedding at the Torpedo Factory Art Center last Saturday and John set up the lighting for us. I'm so happy the people at the Torpedo Factory have him as the vendor cau...
se his work is absolutely perfect. Everything just worked flawlessly. The venue was transformed with the uplighting on the columns and the hanging strings of lights. Just absolutely beautiful. John is really easy to work with and everything was done stress-free which is a big deal when planning a wedding. Thank you John again for your great work!
John Farr was an absolutely amazing lighting designer to work with. Most of my interactions with them were done through my designer, but they seemed amenable to any requests we mad...
e such as hanging café lights across the ceiling and lighting the outdoor path. I only wanted soft and subtle lighting as I was weary of our pictures having blue or pink sheen to them. John Farr recommended a sepia gel up-light which made our venue look sexy and warm especially with the addition of the café lights. Thank you, John Farr!
John Farr Lighting was very professional and delivered exactly what I asked for with very little effort on my part, which is very nice as a bride. Lighting really makes the wedding...
atmosphere in my opinion and they did an excellent job. The pin-spotting was perfect, and the color of the up-lighting was perfect. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the market.
We chose John Farr because my husband and I were getting married in a museum at night and we thought it would be necessary. I was blown away at how beautiful everything looked when...
I walked into the museum that night! The color they choose was perfect and people actually came up to me and complimented me on the lighting, which is not something you normally hear from guests. Usually people compliment you on flowers, food and music etc but the fact that people noticed the lighting is just a sign of what a great they did! Eric, my contact, was extremely nice and was quick to accommodate all my changes and requests. We were very happy we went with John Farr!
After our previous arrangements for lighting fell through, John Farr pulled through last minute and did an amazing job! We loved it! I was so relieved when I walked in to see the...
beautiful purple uplighting and gobo lighting on the dance floor. He even threw in some pin lighting above our cake. He was very easy to work with-- had a contract signed within a couple of days at a very reasonable price for DC. Great! Would definitely use him again.
John Farr Lighting is the only lighting vendor allowed at the Torpedo Factory. They did a great job of setting everything up. We used them for lighting and for an audio hookup for ...
the iPod. All the changes during the event occurred seamlessly, and the staff was almost invisible the whole time. They were very easy to work with.
