Absolute Lighting's favorite photos














Go to the absolute lighting website to see more ideas about how lighting will enhance the decor and mood of your chosen venue. Decor sets the tone for the entire event when these spaces are first revealed to your guests. We're lucky to get the opportunity to stand in these perfectly prepared venues before the party begins.

SSD Plays House of Blues in Los Angeles





Signed Sealed Delivered traveled to Los Angeles to play two shows for a corporate marketing event. One of those shows was at The House of Blues Anaheim. We had a few minutes free to see some local sites. Here is a photo of our keyboardist/singer Mary at the Queen Mary and our favorite hamburger clerk at the world famous In -n -Out Burger.

Kathryn & Kyle @ The Crescent Hotel





Kathryn and Kyle had their wedding over Memorial Day Weekend at The Crescent Hotel , which is one of our favorite venues to perform. Freesia floral and Absolute Lighting worked together to create a lounge feel in the main ballroom with a Red perimeter wash and dramatic pin spotting on the Cymbidium Orchids. Something Blue wedding coordinators helped plan a perfectly seemless event with the band Cuvee providing the music and emcee services. Check out all of the photos on Chris Moseley's blog site. Thanks to Chris for providing these photos.

This was a beautiful wedding with many things coming together at two locations to create a memorable day for everyone.

The blue color wash set a majestic mood while the pinspotting really made the arrangements by Freesia pop. Thanks to Mason Jar Films for the footage above.
