With the help of some expertly placed lighting instruments, the plain walls of a hotel ballroom can be converted into a space with depth and color that draws you in. Lighting can also be used to incorporate the event message, company logo, or company colors into the overall design. It can spotlight centerpieces, bring focus to an entertainment act, and set the ambiance for an event.
In the spirit of the holiday season, we would like to share with you some of favorite recent events where lighting played a key role.
Lighting has had an impact on UV events in a variety of ways.
This VIP client event was held in a standard hotel ballroom. The objective was to create an inviting space for guests to mingle, with a theme selected to replicate the company’s logo. A 48-foot wall of lighted panels set the backdrop for seating arrangements. Bars and tabletops were lit up in a deep blue; seating arrangements were spotlighted with a warm orange color; and the ceiling moved in a shimmering pattern, resembling a starry night in West Texas. Our favorite part of the room was the dramatic orange globe strategically hanging in the center of the room above a seating arrangement. Spot lit from below amongst a group of tall candles, the globe was a showstopper as guests entered the event space.

Our “Dallas Legends” event showcased the legendary sites and scenes that Dallas is best known for. Through the use of colored lighting elements, we divided the room into three sections. In the Downtown Dallas section, designed to represent the titans of the oil industry, one of Dallas’ most prominent landmarks, a neon Pegasus, set on the bar in the center of the room. Lighted panels displayed the famous Dallas Skyline and iconic Dallas skyscrapers were represented in lighted columns scattered amongst the seating. In the “Little Southfork” section, created after the famed television series “Dallas”, uplights showcased the western artwork placed carefully behind the bars and a huge 13-foot oil rig. In the third “Sports” section, the logos of our famed professional sports teams were proudly displayed via gobos across the walls and on ten foot lighted panels.
