Elegant Event Lighting Chicago Weekend in Review | July 19th, 2014

July is flying by here at Elegant Event Lighting Chicago, so we wanted to slow things down by taking a look back on our couple’s custom lighting and décor designs from Saturday, July 19th, 2014!

Sharon MacCormack & Dave Sabol hosted their Wedding Ceremony and Reception at Hotel Baker in St. Charles, IL!  Gorgeous white fabric staircase draping greeted Sharon & Dave’s guests as they arrived to the outdoor ceremony in the Rose Garden.  Elegant Event Lighting Chicago also designed the beautiful white fabric arch, which provided the perfect backdrop for the couple to say their “I Do’s!”

Leslie Short & Beth Daly had a beautiful Wedding Reception at the Hilton Orrington in Evanston, IL!  Leslie & Beth’s draping and lighting design began with a soft, pleated ivory drape wall that was illuminated with warm amber uplighting.

The EEL Team incorporated two openings into the drape wall design.   The first was a dramatic drape entrance that welcomed all of the couple’s guests into the reception space; the second opening was the entrance to the playroom for the younger guests.

To put the finishing touch on Leslie & Beth’s draping and lighting, Elegant Event Lighting Chicago designed two sheer ivory cloud-ceiling canopies.  The canopies ran along the length of the room and beautifully complemented the room’s chandeliers!

Emily Singraber & Matt Gannon celebrated with family and friends at their beautful Wedding Reception at the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago, IL!   The Elegant Event Ligthing Team bathed the perimeter of the Red Lacquer Room with warm amber uplighting.  We love how this lighting element accentuated the room’s beautiful gold drapes!

Elegant Event Lighting Chicago also highlighted the three bar setups with lighted pedestals.  Each pedestal was wrapped in ivory fabric and illuminated in warm amber.
