Morgan and Anthony’s Wedding 9-8-24

The Arlo in Austin, Texas, is a beautiful spot for a wedding. The ballroom is elegant, but understated, and can be transformed with lighting and effects, which is exactly what I did last night. I brought out the full kit– moving head effects, wash lights, uplights, strobes, haze machines, and more, along with a projector to display videos, and the couple’s name, on a large, white wall. The effect was remarkable, and the room went from elegant during dinner to a party vibe once dancing started. I’ve shared some pictures and videos below to give a better sense of what I did.

Musically, I had a chance to play a wide variety of music, as I played from the pre-ceremony to the last dance. As ever, I’ve shared below the songs I played.
