Inspired By Lights

I keep meeting clients who want nothing to have to do with lights, for them flowers is what makes an event look fabulous. It's true, flowers can lift the face of any event no matter how big or small (ask our local caterers who copy Preston Bailey unashamedly and by copy I mean photocopy to the tee! I went to one of the very top ones and in a conversation asked him who designs his florals and very proudly was told, "I do", with this oh-so accomplished smile, and I point out how they are exactly like Preston Bailey's and on being caught he takes out PB's book and says, "this is the bible." *facepalm*). 

The so-called bible - own it and you can be the best caterer (notice how I don't say event/creative planner) there is in Karachi.



Continuing on, lights can be used in so many effective and glamourous ways that it will boggle your mind. Most of the time clients can't visualise when I tell them this, so I researched a few example to help you understand the power of lights, lights, light!

This is from an Indian movie. 


And this is from an American TV show (I forget which)


Harry Potter inspired. Just for fun!
