The Problem

Three service levels, scoped to your event

Some events just need the fixtures dropped off and a crew of your own to set them. Some need a designed look installed and left, lit and ready before the first guest walks in. Others need a rig designed by a lighting designer, programmed to a cue file, and run by a console operator for the length of the show.

EventPro runs all three. Rent the gear and run it yourself. Have our crew design and install static looks, set, focused, and left ready for doors. Or commission a fully custom show, programmed and run on cue by our engineers for the full event. You pick the level that fits the room, the program, and the budget, and we scope to it. A hospital gala working to a fundraising number and a wedding in a historic hall are not the same project. Each gets its own scope and its own quote.

Why EventPro

A room designed to read, and run on cue

Before any lighting fixture is hung, we go through the room the way a guest will see it: the bars, the furniture vignettes, the stage, the guests of honor, and the viewing angle to each key element. Every one of those is a decision about what to light, how to light it, and how to mount it for the best shot. On a larger show it carries into the program, so the lighting follows the energy in the room and underscores each key moment.

The other half of the job is the idea. We come to the table with something you have not seen in that room, then build it to the budget number you actually have. More fixtures do more, and when a show needs the rig we spec the rig. The skill is landing the room on the number we are given, with every fixture placed where it earns its keep.

  • Designed to the room

    The fixture plan comes from the venue, the layout, and the program, not a unit count pulled off a list.

  • Programmed and run, when you want it

    On a full show our lighting engineer programs the console and runs cues against the run of show. On an installed look we hand you the room, set and focused, at doors open.

  • One crew, load-in to strike

    The team that designed the rig loads it in, runs it, and strikes it clean. One accountable crew, start to finish.

  • An 80,000 sq ft facility, a short haul in

    Design, prep, and pre-rig, plus a full lighting inventory in one building between Baltimore and DC, so what we design is what loads onto the truck.

Weddings

Ready before doors, through the last song

Weddings are a large part of what we do here. Ballrooms in Harbor East, historic halls downtown, waterfront rooms in Fells Point. The requirements are different from a corporate gala. It has to look right the moment doors open and still be right when the band starts. On most of these there is no operator retuning the room between courses, so a single look carries cocktails, dinner, and dancing. Too dramatic and it fights the dinner. Too restrained and the floor never lifts. Getting all three out of one setting is most of the design.

Most wedding work sits at EP Curated: uplights around the perimeter, pin spots on the tables and the cake, Lekos on ground-supported towers, cafe lights overhead. Pin spots are focused after the floral is set, and the focus call is part of the plan. Where a couple wants moving heads and a programmed dance set, that is a full show, and we run it the way we run a gala.

FAQ

Event lighting in Baltimore, answered

01How much does event lighting cost in Baltimore?
Event lighting in Baltimore is priced to the room and the program: the size of the space, the fixture count, and how much of the show we run. A single uplight wash for a reception sits at the low end; a full intelligent rig, programmed and run by an engineer for a gala or a conference, is more. Tell us the venue and the run of show and we will send a clear quote.
02Do you operate the lighting or just drop it off?
Either, and it is your call. Rent the fixtures, prepped and tested, and put your own crew on them. Have our crew design and set the rig, and walk into a finished room at doors open. Or commission a full show, where our lighting engineer programs the console and runs it live through cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. Tell us which of those sounds like your event and we will quote that level.
03Which Baltimore venues do you work in?
We light galas, weddings, corporate events, brand activations, festivals, and openings across the city, from the Four Seasons and the Sagamore Pendry to the Enoch Pratt Free Library, the George Peabody Library, the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and the Maryland Science Center, plus university and hospital campuses and private homes. Our crew knows Baltimore load-in and dock rules, and our production facility sits just outside the city.
04Do you light hospital, university, and institutional galas?
That is a large part of what we do in Baltimore. Recent work includes the Wilmer Eye Institute centennial for Johns Hopkins, the Storybook Gala for Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital, the LifeBridge Health gala, Pratt Contemporaries at the Enoch Pratt Free Library, and the Hopkins Rec Center opening.
05Can you light a historic or landmark venue?
Yes, and a good deal of our Baltimore work is in exactly those rooms. Older halls come with real constraints on what can be hung, what can be attached, and what atmospheric effects are allowed. We plan the rig around them before the quote goes out, so there are no surprises.
06Are you an event lighting company, or a full production company?
We are a full production company. Lighting, audio, video, rigging, and power all run in house, so we can take an event from concept through strike without a handoff. We also take lighting-only work as readily as full builds. The gear is ours. The crew is on staff. Baltimore is where EventPro started, in 2011.
