The dress. The food. The venue. The lighting? It’s a detail that might not be on your checklist.
With the natural glow that’s sure to surround you and your soulmate on your special day, is
additional lighting even something you need to think about?
As seasoned lighting expert Brian Ranft of Ozarks Creative Productions says, “Of course there
aren’t many guests who will attend a wedding and think, ‘Ooooh look at the lighting,’ but what
lighting can do is highlight the details the couple has worked so hard to execute.” Like a lot of
lighting professionals, Ranft has a theatrical background and takes the same approach to weddings
to ensure a memorable, visually appealing event that truly stands out.
