Event Spot Light of the Week - National Corvette Museum

As we all gear up for wedding season, I'd love to look back at a few events we did over the past year and give an explanation of how we created each look.

First stop: National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky, August 21st, 2010.
Challenge: Transform the event space inside a car museum into an elegant wedding reception for 500 guests.



Watt did we do?
  • LED up lights around the perimeter of the room. Why LED's? This particular client requested we change the color of the room from Amber, to Pale Purple, to Deep Purple at different ques during the evening. This created a very soft ambient glow for dinner that gradually changed into a more vibrant purple for music and dancing.
  • Pin spots on table centerpieces and cake. This effect really makes focal pieces pop. If you are going to spend a lot of money on key elements, why not highlight them and bring more attention to them.
  • Gobo Patterns on the dance floor. We used white Antique Rosette here. This created boundaries, interest, and decor to a not-so typical long and narrow dance floor. There are hundreds of pattern gobos to choose from and you can use any color under the rainbow.
