Lighting for events can be tricky, as it can colour all of your well thought out plans.
Certain event designers like Preston Bailey have told stories about obsessing with their client over finding the right shade of white for all the linens, chairs, floral and décor, only to have a guest comment that they loved the creamy colour of the wedding that was created on the night by the context of the warm candlelight.
Pinspotting is a great way to focus the attention on each table and literally keep your guests out of the dark.
It helps everyone appreciate the finest details of your event literally by shining a light on it.
The pinspot is great for sending a narrow beam of warm white light onto each tablescape, floral arrangement, wedding cake, buffet, podium and of course the head table to make each thought out display and the food and drinks really shine and pop.

Thanks Sam. I must admit that understanding the intricacies of lighting is not my strong suit! This is very helpful.

Sam, great piece. As a photographer – lighting is very important, and you’d be surprised how many people tell me they are going to have the room lit up, only to show up to a dark venue with no additional lighting other than the small candles on a table.
