Being a woman in event & concert production, starting a business at 26, investing our life’s savings in lighting and equipment. It has been HARD.

Building stages all night, working for weeks without a day off kindof hard. But we’re nowhere near giving up on this dream.

Wallflower was a vision that we shared in whispers long before we bought any gear or formed our LLC.

If you’ve met us, you know a little of our story. Girls falls in love with concerts. Boy falls in love with theater. Their careers lead them straight to eachother. They dream of something to call their own. They create Wallflower and it becomes their future.
✨💘

Y’all reminded us WHY we do it
“An expression of art in its most vulnerable form” 🌝

Loved lighting such talented performers 💫

Lighting a wedding ceremony is so special. With all the lights dimmed, this ballroom became the most intimate space.

We provided soft white lighting for the entire aisle and ceremony stage.

Big brass energy at the Elks Lodge! 🥁🎺🎷
We would put Mardi Gras on repeat if we could 💜💚💛

Wallflower provided performance lighting and uplights for Pittsburgh's Fat Tuesday Party.

The treetops that night ✨🤭

Outdoor lighting is something we're really wild about. The scale is vast and each color is vivid in the darkness. We didn't know our lights could reach so close to the night sky.

The majority of our lighting is battery operated & cable free. So we light the outdoors without worrying about access to power or a tangle of extension cords.
It's truly magical.

What is the most common question during our consultations?
It’s not about pricing or logistics. It’s honestly not even really about lighting. 🤫

The Question:
“What do people USUALLY do?”

Really! Even in 2023, when it seems as if nearly every detail is personalized, bespoke or at least specially curated.
So…why shouldn’t the lighting be too?

During our consultations, we dream about the possibilities ✨✨
We rarely recommend a repeat and always provide clients with a custom design proposal. Our approach to lighting design is fun, informal and always personalized.

This wedding was a little unusual for us because we did not include room uplighting. We provided pinspotting for the florals and accent lighting for the greenery decor throughout the ballroom. This made the centerpiece lighting the statement 💐

The most glamorous NYE wedding at the Fairmont! ✨✨✨

We feel lucky to have provided lighting for this beautiful celebration on the best night of the year.

We are celebrating tonight! 🍾

It’s so true that when you support a small business, an actual person (or two) does a happy dance.

We loved working with Lisa this past holiday season. She was kind enough to leave us a review and we are so appreciative 😁 .and.makeup.pgh

Our team LOVES wedding lighting. But honestly, the usual response is….what exactly is it?

We get it, light is a little hard to put your finger on. Think of it as decor, but the kind…that changes everything✨

Seriously! Light changes the way our eyes perceive a room and everything in it. Most people don’t realize that the wedding photos we see online, typically include some degree of non-permanent (likely rented) lighting.

It can be disappointing to realize that your venue’s in-house lighting isn’t really….like you imagined. But it is totally normal.

So let us help! We can create lighting packages that will fit your budget and there are no silly questions here. 💡

We have been hard at work on our new website to share more about what wedding lighting✨ means ✨ to us --> https://www.wallflowereventdesign.com/weddings

3 of our tips!
- It's not ALL about uplighting 😛
- You can have a classy and elegant wedding with colorful light 🌈
- Reception lighting will keep your dance floor full 💃🕺

Woofstock is Northeast Ohio’s largest dog festival! It is a popular event in Chagrin Falls, celebrating its 29th year. Fundraising was raised for a local animal rescue Rescue Village.

There was nonstop dog watching, an adoptable pet parade, doggie agility courses and awesome pet themed vendors! It seems like every pup found a home 🐶🐾

Our team built the mobile stage for the local bands and parade. Our team is in Cleveland again this weekend for the Pickle Festival!

A few of our favorite shots from this past weekend at the Duquesne Club ✨✨

We were invited to light up the Duquesne Club this past weekend.

The Duquesne Club opened in 1890 and much of the century old architecture is still present today! It was fantastic to create a bright and transcendent ballroom look, while fully embracing the historic integrity of the space.
