This dreamy 70s-meets-modern shoot was just published over at and we’re so thrilled! Here are our quick lighting-focused tips for adding a little retro flair ✨ to your day:
1. Warm rich colors: for the linens the florals the clothes and OF COURSE the lighting too! Think Amber, gold, candlelight, and pops of rich sunset orange and leaf green.
2. Statement lighting: cha delivers, pendants, bulbs in big dramatic clusters, mirrorballs— lots of options to suit your style, it just needs to make a statement and define a space! Here we hung cascading glass pendants over the tables, mixed oversized bulbs asymmetrically accenting the ceremony, and a giant 2’ orb hung nice and low over the lounge.
3. Unserious details: glowing orbs lining the steps, colorful bulbs mixed into the cafe string lights, creating faux stained glass windowpanes— taking some risks and doing something unexpected is the secret to a fun and uniquely ‘you’ design!
4. Above all, ✨vibes✨: once it’s dark how do you want your event to feel? There’s no wrong answer, but your lighting design will dictate the look and feeling of your whole event once the sun sets. For a moody 79s conversation pit you’ll need those rich colors and statement pieces (plus some glowy tabletop lamps) to create the groovy look.
A HUGE thank you to Andrea at and for bringing us on to light this up!
