Wireless Weddings
How can wireless lighting benefit
weddings? Does it make sense to use wireless lighting, which is typically more
expensive, for your clients’ big day? Here is a list of the advantages of
wireless weddings:
TABLE CENTERPIECES
Every wedding has large tables,
and that requires stunning centerpieces. With wireless lighting, you can place
a colour-changing ornament in the center, which can also be synched with all
the other tables to change colour and effect at the same time. Furthermore,
this is only really plausible with wireless lighting since it’s seamless and
doesn’t require cables, which can look hideous on a day where everything must
be perfect.
Recommended Astera Products: AX3 Lightdrop™ and AL3-S MiniLightdrop™
These two products are small, compact
and have long battery runtimes. They can be used with Astera centerpieces
(bubble stick and small spheres) or be built into your own construction. No cables,
and being very small, make this a possibility. The great thing is that you can
just use the AX3 and place a clear glass vase on top and “hey presto!”… You
have a nice and quick centerpiece.
QUICK SET UP
Since wedding venues are usually
only rented for one day, there is always a mad rush to get everything set up
and rigged in time. This is where wireless lighting can help tremendously. Less
cables means less staff needed to lay the cables, transport equipment and to
maintain/program the equipment to play desired effects. Saving time means you
need less rental time, and also less pack-up time. These are all going to
impact your profit margins, whether you’re a mobile DJ or a fully-fledged event
company.
Recommended Astera Products: AX7 SpotLite™ and AX10 SpotMax™
These lights not only have tons
of effects to choose from, with lovely rich colours, they are also waterproof which
is ideal for outdoor weddings in places where there are no power outlets (on
the beach, for example). Furthermore, wireless lights can constantly be tweaked
and moved within seconds to find the optimal angle for illumination (for
example, when lighting up trees and buldings).
FLAWLESS APPEARANCE
Much the same as the two previous
benefits, but when lighting up walls with wallwasher fixtures, cables are even
more prominent and they really restrict the movement you can apply to each
fixture. For wired set ups, cables are sometimes covered (which takes time) or
they are left to be seen (which looks ugly), so when moving a fixture the
cables will be disrupted and it takes even more time to conceal them again.
With wireless lights, none of these issues are present.
Recommended Astera Products: AL6-M and AL6-L Wallwashers, AL7-XXL and AX10 SpotMax™
Not only are they wireless, they
also come in white for weddings, which allows the lights to fit seamlessly into
the overall event aesthetic.
