We loved working with Dillon at Austin Event Lighting! From start to finish, communication was smooth and professional, making the entire process easy and stress-free. The disco balls looked incredible in the barn - exactly the vibe we were going for. Everything turned out even better than we imagined. Thank you so much for bringing our vision to life!

AEL provided lighting for my wedding and worked with us even though we were smaller scope than their usual customers. They were professional and did a great job with the light installation work and measured it well so there was no shortage. We went with a tuscany bistro lighting along greenery on the beams look. All our guests thought the decor was beautiful. Jacquelyn was my AEL rep and she was great to work with! I recommend all brides to a do a final walk through at the venue with your vendors, as it does make a difference once you are there and see where all the outlets are. They are also very nice staff! Highly recommend, even for small weddings like ours were. <100 guests. They have a great catalog of other lighting ideas but our venue was a restrictive on hiding hanging equipment, otherwise their idea of spotlight on the dance floor would've been a nice idea for the wedding, highly recommend to others though!

We loved working with AEL. We had this vision to install lanterns all across the ceiling of our venue and the team did an amazing job. It looked like colorful stars everywhere! We ...

were so impressed with their work, and the booking and communication leading up to the event was a breeze. The staff day-off was so sweet and helpful, too, and they were really attentive to make sure everything was exactly how we hoped. We absolutely recommend them for your event lighting!!

Wade and his team at Austin Event Lighting created the best atmosphere for our wedding at Prospect House in March 2023. We had this idea to hang a giant 5 foot globe that would glo...

w and react to the music and Wade and his team made it come to life. They mocked up our vision (custom making this globe) in their warehouse before we even signed a contract with them, which was the vote of confidence needed for us to trust their work. They took all of our ideas seriously and made the impossible happen. From an inflatable 5 foot globe to a fog machine, Austin Event Lighting really made our wedding an event to remember!

Austin Event Lighting did an incredible job with our South Congress Hotel Wedding. We hired them for indoor and outdoor lighting and also worked with them to manage the Zoom livest...

ream for our COVID-19 era wedding. Our ceremony took place after dark, outdoors, and so lighting was a crucial element to create the atmosphere we wanted. The string lights and uplighting at our Chuppah were STUNNING, and the ballroom uplights and the GOBO added a ton to the reception. Even though the Zoom stream was an add-on - Sean and his team were incredible to work with, showing so much care to ensure that the livestream was of great quality for the many, many people we had watching from home who couldn't attend in person. Austin Event Lighting was a huge part in our wedding being a success. Thank you!!

Absolutely stunning results! This was not an expense we had anticipated, but it was worth every penny! The uplighting they used added so much to the ambiance. Sean is fantastic to ...

nt of bringing that vision to life (I was getting married after the sun went down). Their main tech came to one of our site-visits and spent time talking through all the details with my photographer and planner to ensure the game plan was solid! I can't lie - I was anxious to see how it all came together the day of but WOW - They killed it! My planner said the techs onsite the day of were very helpful and went above and beyond as well! Highly Recommend!

AEL did a great job with my wedding. They were very responsive, made my ceremony and reception look incredible, and they even went the extra mile to meet me at the venue beforehand...

fter meeting him at the venue, he quickly sent over the plan for us to go over. When we did our final walk through, we sent over a few questions to confirm some details. Sean again was prompt in responding and very accommodating to some changes we wanted to make. The evening was absolutely everything I imagined and more when I walked outside for our seated dinner. It was incredibly magical and such a dream come true!

had a great time working with Sean (owner) and Jon (our on-site designer). Both were friendly and committed to making our day special. Even in the months after, our guests still talk about how beautiful our wedding was. Would highly recommend!
