The thing nobody books and everybody notices
Uplighting & Custom Dance Floors in Ottawa
Lighting is what turns your decor on. The same room, the same drapery, the same flowers, either lit flat by the venue's ceiling pots or washed in warm amber with your florals pin-spotted and your name glowing across the floor. It is the cheapest dramatic change in this entire list.
Uplighting, done with restraint
LED uplights sit against the walls and wash colour up the drapery. Used well, they make a beige hall disappear and your backdrop glow. Used badly, they turn everyone's skin green in the photographs.
We programme in scenes: warm and soft through dinner so faces light properly, then your accent colour for the first dance, then something with more energy once the floor fills. Your photographer will thank you.
Custom dance floor wraps
A printed vinyl wrap laid over the venue's floor with your monogram, names or crest in the centre. It photographs from the balcony, from the DJ booth and from every phone in the room, and it is one of the few decor pieces guests actually stop and look down at.
We print to your exact floor dimensions from artwork you already have: your invitation crest, your monogram, or something we lay out with you.

Questions
Lighting, answered
It depends on wall length and how much of the room you want washed rather than spotted. A mid-size hall commonly lands somewhere between twelve and twenty-four. We will count it against your venue's floor plan instead of guessing.
Not if it is programmed properly. We keep dinner warm and neutral so skin tones photograph correctly, and save saturated colour for after the meal when the photographer is shooting the dance floor. If you tell us who your photographer is, we are happy to coordinate directly.
Yes. Printed vinyl, cut to your floor's exact dimensions. Send us your invitation crest or monogram artwork and we will lay it out and send a proof before printing.
