Happy Holidays from Solus Lighting LTD

Solus Lighting LTD hopes you and yours have a fantastic New Years.  Stay tuned to the Solus Lighting LTD special events lighting blog, website and Facebook fan page for news in the upcoming new year!

Solus Lighting LTD moves into the political realm

Solus Lighting LTD was recently hired to light the official Vote No on Issue 2 Watch Party.  Held on election night, the watch party was for all types of union workers to assemble in one place to watch the results of the election,  Solus Lighting LTD provided up lighting around the room in the official Issue 2 blue as well as the stage lighting.  The stage lighting was of particular importance for this special event, as the watch party was covered on all local news stations here in Cleveland, Ohio as well as on the Ohio News Network.  Check out some pictures below, as well as on our website and our Facebook page!

A night to remember

Solus Lighting LTD was pleased to provide the décor lighting for a b'nai mitzvah this past weekend.  Ninety percent of the lighting elements consisted of LED lighting fixtures.  There were sculptures around the edge of the room that were lit with led strip lights.  Other elements included under table lighting, which were lit with wireless led fixtures.  Wireless led fixtures is something that we haven't talked about too much here on the blog.  The advantages of wireless fixtures, is that there is no power or data cable running to these fixtures.  So when a client wants their spandex covered tables to glow and change color, there is no better choice than a wireless led fixture -- no cables, and no heat generated from the light source.  Another element the decorator used was six 10' tall white corrugated plastic columns.  These columns were used as set pieces for the dj booth on the stage.  We, again, used the wireless led fixtures inside the bottom of the columns for amazing bold colors that changed through out the night.  Check out some pics below.  More pictures can be found on our website and Facebook page.  We have also posted some videos of the fixtures in action on our You Tube page.

Update...Solus blog 2011

Solus Lighting LTD was the exclusive special event lighting company to participate in the "I Do" Bridal Soirée at the 100th Bomb Group last week and it was a bridal show to remember.  We had the pleasure of lighting up the Jeffrey Room for the mock reception for brides-to-be to get ideas for their upcoming wedding receptions.  Our previous blog post showed the before shots of the space, and here we are featuring the shots of the final outcome.

The lighting for the event featured; uplighting the walls of the entire space, a custom wedding projection on the dance floor, the pinspotting (highlighting) of all of the table centerpieces and lighting the food stations and bar.  Please check out our wedding info page on our website for more explanation of how these features can help enhance your wedding reception!  More pictures can be found on our Facebook page, as well as in our design gallery on our website.

SLL @ the "I Do" Bridal Soirée

Solus Lighting LTD is gearing up for another bridal show.  The "I Do" Bridal Soirée is coming up next Thursday, October 20th 2011, at the 100th Bomb Group.  Solus Lighting LTD is honored to be the exclusive lighting vendor of the Jeffrey Room.  We, along with other great vendors, will be setting up the Jeffrey Room just as we would if it were a real wedding reception.  We love the concept that Amy Nixon of Amy Nixon Events, LLC came up with for this bridal show and we jumped at the chance to be involved.

Record setting weekend for Solus Lighting LTD

After 6 shows in 5 days, over 700 miles driven and the dust cleared, the first weekend of October was record setting for Solus Lighting LTD.  The weekend included a bridal show, two weddings, a corporate gala, a corporate awards dinner and a theatrical show thrown in for good measure!  We implemented several different lighting concepts and effects to keep up with the themes of the events.  The weekend featured a custom gobo, turning a courtyard into a sapphire wonderland of shimmering lighting effects, and plenty of uplighting.  Take a look at some of the shots below, and you can check out more in our design gallery on our website as well as on our Facebook fan page.

Bridal Fairs with Bridal & Beyond

Solus Lighting LTD is proud to be a vendor at all five of the Bridal & Beyond Fairs.  You can find information on all of their fairs on the Bridal & Beyond website.  We just completed the first of the five this past Sunday, at the Sheraton Cleveland Airpot.  We met a laundry list of excellent vendors and an even longer list of great brides.
