Lighting
Wedding lighting hire
Lighting is what turns a beautiful room into an unforgettable one.

Good lighting changes everything: how the room feels, how your stage glows and how your photographs look once the sun goes down. We plan lighting as part of your overall design rather than an afterthought, so it complements your stage, colours and venue.
From soft fairy lights to statement chandeliers and lanterns, we design and set up lighting that suits the mood of your event, whether it's a grand reception, an intimate nikkah or an evening in a marquee.

Hi everybody, my name is Azeem and I'm the founder of Stages & Co. I want to see exactly what we've done. Lovely customer of ours, so let's start. I've got… Beautiful wedding lights, warm and white, from the top to the bottom, Archway round the door as well. Come through, I want to take you to the garden with us. Marquees in the garden, not one, two, OK? So we've got one 6 x 3 marquee. So the 6 x 3 marquee is simply for the food station, OK? So this is where the food will be served. Guests pick up the food. And they walk through to the main: three long rectangle tables, there's going to be cloths put on them. We've got a few seats on the side, we've got chiavari chairs. Come through. This is the main guy. Let me show you: we've got a lovely 9 x 6 marquee. We've got a beautiful stage in the back, chandelier lights. We've got ivory pleated lining as well, and this is the stage here, guys. It was a male customer, so he said he wanted less flowers, a bit more bold colours, less decoration. That's exactly what we've done for him today, guys. Stages & Co. We do everything, from marquees to lighting to stages. Get in contact today and you can see what we're about.

FAQs
Common questions
Do I need power near the stage for lighting?
Usually, yes. We'll ask about power access when planning and note it in your confirmed design, so set-up runs smoothly on the day.
Can lighting be booked without a stage?
Yes. Lighting can be booked on its own or alongside staging, marquees and other services.
How do I secure my date?
Your booking is confirmed once we receive your signed quote (or written confirmation) and a non-refundable booking deposit (£75 for stages, backdrops and signage; £100 per service for lighting, entertainment and other add-ons). Until then the date is not held. A separate, refundable £75 Damage Deposit also applies to every booking. Your statutory rights are not affected.
Can you provide insurance documents for my venue?
Yes. We hold public liability insurance with cover up to £5,000,000, and proof of insurance is available on request for venues that require it.
