Pittsburgh Wedding & Event Decorator

Make the Space More Inviting for Those You’re Inviting with a Unique Event Design.

You’ve been to a dozen events that all look the same. Same linen. Same flowers.

Clearly the same Pinterest inspiration.

You want something different. Something…

Innovative. Exciting. Memorable. Unforgettable. Breathtaking.

Show-stopping events don’t just happen.

And you can’t just add sparkly linens or colorful uplights to create something special.

They require passion, expertise, and ingenuity.

That’s where we come in.

Meet Our Visionaries

This company is made up of the kindest and most considerate people that I’ve dealt with in a long time- that’s not always easy to find!! Not only that, they were also very communicative, reasonably priced and didn’t tack on a bunch of other fees. I would definitely use them for another event and will definitely be recommending them to others in the future!!

Above & Beyond Experience

Professional Process + No Limits Design

Step 01. DISCOVERY + DESIGN

We start by listening to your ideas and learning about you, your style, and your needs. We discover how you want your day to look and feel. Then we create a one-of-a-kind design that knows no limits.

Step 02. PREPARATION + PRODUCTION

If it’s not on our shelves, and we can’t find what you want, we’ll create it for you. Our team spends countless hours making our own drapery, building custom decor structures, and earnestly preparing for your event.

Step 03. TRANSFORMATION

Our team comes prepared and ready to transform your space. From start to finish, we ensure everything is of the highest quality. And we don’t rest until we’ve accomplished the unforgettable atmosphere you and your guests deserve.

Discover Your Possibilities

Hire ILLUME Lighting and Event Design and you won’t be sorry! I had one planning meeting with them and we ironed out all of the details of what I would need for the day. I told them I wanted drapery and swagging for our back drop at the ceremony and they created a beautiful back drop! They were also quick to respond to any questions I had throughout the process. Best of all, I had not one worry about the rentals at all.

We had heard a lot of great things about Chris and his decorations from our vendor coordinator, and he definitely lived up to the hype! He gave great advice on our phone consultation on what he thought would work well, and gave us options for us to choose from. His invoicing and contracts were all online and super easy to do, and made it very clear what each party’s obligations were. About a month before, Chris checked in to make sure we wanted to change anything up before the event or had any questions, which was great to make sure we had what we needed. We wanted our lighting to make the venue seem smaller and more intimate, and it did exactly that. We were really pleased with how it turned out, and got loads of compliments on the set up. It looked great! The best thing a vendor could do for us is give us the feeling we had nothing to worry about leading up to and on our wedding day. Chris did exactly that. Thank you!
