These guys did the lighting for our wedding a few weeks back - and WOW. They did an AMAZING job - I was totally blown away. All our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was. They strung chinese lanterns outside above the reception tables and uplit the surrounding trees. It REALLY created an elegant, romantic, classy atmosphere. Jon was wonderful to work with - always answered my calls and emails super fast. I HIGHLY recommend these guys.......can't stress that enough. read more

Got Light provided the lighting for our wedding in San Francisco in July 2019 and they were amazing! The venue looked absolutely fantastic with the lighting providing that little extra wow factor that we were after. But in addition, Ashley and Kristina were so easy to work with. They were always responsive and flexible and creative in finding ways to work within our budget. read more

We recently used Got Light for our wedding venue in the Presidio, San Francisco. The reception was at the Golden Gate Club which was a large space. Having seen some of their past photos showing how they lit up the space I was sold. Kristina was beyond helpful and very accommodating with all of our requests. The venue looked amazing and I honestly couldn't have asked for anything better. Would absolutely recommend Got Light to anyone who asks and will be using them in the future! read more

Our wedding reception room looked downright MAGICAL with GL's expertise. Kristina was a very patient, excellent source of help that really maximized our financial abilities with the vision we had - their team was prompt, thorough, and very creative! read more

Got Light provided the lighting for our wedding reception at the Conservatory of Flowers this past September. Overall, they did a stellar job of executing our vision, creating an incredibly warm atmosphere on the blank canvas that is the Orchid Pavilion. They walked my wife through an in-depth demonstration of the colors and patterns to choose from. All in all they were easy to work with and handled setup/tear down seamlessly with the Conservatory. Gladly recommend them for events in the SF area. read more

Got Light was fantastic to work with. We got married in October 09 at the Bently Reserve in San Francisco, and knew we needed lighting to decorate the space, but I had no idea what I needed. Their design team helped guide me through the process, with recommendations and ideas that turned out beautiful. They knew the venue, knew what was needed, knew what would look best for our Indian wedding and reception, and knew how to light up our events and the space for our ig day. What I thought was most important, on the day of our wedding, they were SO easy to work with. Everything was efficiently set up and looked exactly as they had described and what I was hoping for. read more

Got Light provided the lighting and drapes for our wedding at the Bently Reserve. They were incredibly easy to work with and clearly quite experienced at the venue. Thank you Hayley and the team at Got Light. read more

GotLight made my wedding experience in my family's backyard magical and beautiful -- thank you so much! The design GotLight helped us come up with was perfect, and they had all of the elements we wanted and even some we hadn't thought of to make the backyard shine! The installation staff was extremely courteous, efficient, and competent -- everything was set up beautifully. Wolfgang arrived early on the day of to install the lanterns, and then made sure everything worked well during the reception. He was really nice and did a great job. We'll definitely remember that night forever and we're happy that all the staff at GotLight added the extra touches to make it so special once the sun set! read more

First of all, I'm embarrassed that it has taken me this long to give this well deserving company the raving review they deserve! Jon and the Got-Light? team never cease to amaze me at what they do. They are creative, innovative and very competitively priced PLUS they are the nicest, funniest people you could possibly find. As a wedding planner, I know I shouldn't be biased when it comes to these things as everyone deserves a chance, but I just can't say enough good things about this group of lighting designers. They really know what they are doing and will never leave your event looking less then perfect. I love you guys! read more

Jon and his team are phenomenal. The results were absolutely beautiful and they are a joy to work with. Professional, patient, smart, considerate and fast. They handled some significant changes and surprises with both grace and precision. read more

My wedding was held in Cornerstone Gardens in Sonoma California and we received several quotes from different lighting companies. As I soon found out, if you have great vendors for your wedding, all will go well. I can't say enough about Got Light. There was always someone at the office to answer my questions when I was getting quotes. They were very responsive over email as well. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch. I couldn't believe how much the great lighting improved the "look" of the evening! Working with Got Light was easy and they did a great job. read more

Got Light provided the lighting for our November wedding in the city and the team did a great job understanding our vision to put together the lighting design. The team works on some big events, so we spent some time with their team to scope the design to our wedding scale. The Got Light team had worked with our venue before so they had a great insight into the lighting needs. We ended up spending much more on lighting that initially planned, mainly due to labor needs for the Chinese lanterns we had, but the expense was worthwhile to create a beautiful ambience throughout the evening. The only hitch we had in the evening was that our dance floor wash wasn't visible during the reception and the Got Light team addressed the issue after the fact, which we appreciated. Overall, we enjoyed working with the Got Light team, particularly Kristina who helped get all the details together and kept us on track, and would recommend working with them. read more

Have you ever walked into a party and thought WOW but couldn't place exactly why? It was lighting. More specifically lighting from the fabulous Got Light team. I have been working with them for professionally for over 6 years and they are the only folks I would trust with my personal events including my wedding. They always go above and beyond to make clients happy while being realistic with budget to wow ratio. read more

Got Light did the lighting for our March 2013 wedding at City Hall (we rented the venue for both the ceremony and reception). They are very experienced at City Hall and are one of the few lighting vendors on the pre-approved list. Got Light worked with us (actually our planner, Lauren Geissler, from Downey Street Events) on creating the perfect lighting package. We wanted fairly simple lighting with a candlelit, warm, and romantic ambiance. They also provided some draping for certain of the corridors to help make the room feel more intimate. Got Light nailed it and were very reasonable in their pricing. The lighting changed throughout the evening and provided the perfect ambiance to complement our floral arrangements (some of which included candles) and the overall atmosphere (even as the natural light in the setting changed). Some guests and even our photographer noted what an amazing job they did. We would highly recommend Got Light if you are looking for a lighting vendor, especially if you're getting married at City Hall or another venue with a complicated lighting scheme. read more

Lighting is one of the fine touches to a wedding that not many guests notice but plays a significant role in elevating the event to the next level. Kohl Mansion came to life because of got light? They are very experienced and knew exactly what we wanted, even when we didn't know what to expect. They offered very competitive pricing and were very prompt and courteous in correspondence. It was a pleasure working with Ashley and we highly recommend got light? for any and all occasions. read more

We worked with Kristina and GotLight for our wedding at Temple Emanuel. I could not believe the difference their lighting talents made. The lights helped transform the venue. Kristina and her team were a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them. read more

Got Light provided fantastic lighting for our wedding! They were so easy and fun to work with. I didn't have lighting ideas of my own so they just took care of it and made our venue look absolutely beautiful. Their employees are professional and responsive! read more

I got married shortly after Labor Day, and Irja was constantly corresponding with us throughout the holiday weekend and even on the holiday itself. She really knows how to put a bride-to-be (and in this case, the mother of the bride :)) at ease with her design knowledge and detailed cost breakdowns. Her color and pattern recommendations fit our budget and transformed the Bently Reserve into an amazing reception location. read more

My husband and I just had them do lighting for our wedding reception this past Saturday. A bang-up job - we couldn't have been happier. They made a rather raw, blank, industrial-looking space look incredibly warm and rosy within a couple of hours. The guys who did the setting up and breaking down couldn't have been nicer or easier to work with! read more

We used Got Light? for our wedding reception at the Cornerstone Gardens this past August and it turned out amazing. They have that venue down pat and had great recommendations and suggestions when we explained what we were looking for. Working with them was quick and easy and had such a huge impact on our reception. Their dramatic lighting set the mood and let our guests dance, lounge and drink in style. I personally worked with Ashley and she was a pro, I absolutely recommend her. Thanks Got Light! If I ever throw another huge party I'd love to have you guys on board. read more

I was referred to Got Light because the family friend whose estate we were getting married at had used them for several previous events. Kristina was very helpful in offering a variety of lighting plans for a backyard wedding on a spring evening. We worked out including uplighting for the trees in the front and back of the estate as well as bistro lights and a light dance floor wash in the back for the reception. Kristina was very responsive and accommodated a walk through as well as a handful of discussions for different lighting options. I understand why our family friend continues to work with this company as the reception looked even more enchanting as the evening went on. read more

We worked with GotLight for our Legion of Honor reception in San Francisco last year. I really enjoyed working with Kristina, who was highly professional and prompt in our communications. As I coordinated the event myself without the assistance of a wedding planner, it was incredibly helpful to work with GotLight, who understood the venue and had a thorough understanding of all the details we needed to take into consideration for lighting, power, and AV. I also felt the pricing was reasonable compared to other quotes I received. Finally, they are set-up ninjas and will get your lighting up and running in record time, which is helpful at venues like LOH that don't let vendors in until after the museum closes (1-2 hours before your event starts). Would highly recommend GotLight for your wedding lighting and AV needs! read more

We recently used Got LIght? for our wedding in Walnut Creek. They were absolutely fantastic to work with from beginning to end. Ashley was extremely prompt with all correspondence, addressed any and all questions I had with enthusiasm and support and did everything to make the whole process seamless. Having worked with a lot of vendors for the wedding, I can say that Got Light? was one of the best to work with! Of course, what matters most is how the lighting turned out! Everything looked fantastic! I was amazed at how they transformed the huge backyard and outdoor space into a warm, romantic and classy venue with their lighting design. It exceeded all my expectations! I can't recommend them enough. Thank you Ashley and Got Light? for doing an amazing job both in pre-production and with the final event! read more

I love Got Light! They made our wedding so glamorous. Sean Shay was soooo fabulous to work with, and I was so grateful for his patience, his kindness, and all his help in trying to meet our budget. We got married at SF City Hall, and the colors that we chose made the venue look so romantic and wonderful. We also selected a wash for the stairs and the dance floor that almost made it like a different venue from earlier that day. Thank you Sean and team for making our dreams come true!!! The pictures are amazing! read more

I love got light. So easy to work with. I worked with Karl and Julie and they made an already beautiful room illuminate for my wedding at SF City Hall. Karl worked with me and made it really easy to understand how everything would look day of and helped me work within my budget. Julie was there day of to make sure everything went smoothly. Thanks Got light for making the room beautiful. read more

Irja and her team are fantastic! They created beatiful lighting for my wedding at the Berkeley City Club. They transformed an already beautiful space into a stunning reception room. Every detail was considered and every corner lit perfectly! read more

These guys are totally fab! Thank you so much for the great job you did at our City Hall wedding!

We hired Got.Light for our wedding and had a phenomenal experience throughout. Their client manager was extremely helpful, and their installation crew was in and out in a flash. Absolutely no complaints here. We'd recommend them to everyone! read more

I found Got Light staff to be very professional and their work outstanding. I'd hire them again!

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Got Light? and our consultant Hayley. Our pre-event conversations/emails were a breeze and Hayley gave us much needed feedback regarding the design we wanted. We booked the basic wedding package to decorate the Fort Mason Firehouse for our eclectic wedding which included warm purple uplighting and a red/gold dance floor pattern. On the day of the event, the Got Light? staff arrived on time and did an awesome job setting up the lights that created the fun mood for the event. The pictures of the event look amazing too!!! They managed to make the very square and bland Fort Mason Firehouse look vibrant and amazing! We're very happy with our choice to use them for our wedding celebration. read more

I worked with Sean at Got Light? for my twin sons' B'nai Mitzvah in October. Other than centerpieces, Got Light? provided all of our decoration. Sean helped us create a hip swanky nightclub theme with lighting and pipe and drape, and it looked FANTASTIC! Sean was a pleasure to work with - he was really creative and always responsive. On the day of the event, the set up and break down was seamless. I also had quite a bit of video/slide show/live performance segments which needed to be coordinated by the Got Light? technician and the DJ, and everything was executed perfectly! I was thrilled with the Got Light? folks and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. read more

Got Light did the lighting for our wedding at the Observation Post at the Presidio. They did an amazing job! Ashley was very helpful in getting everything set up for us and everything turned out exactly how I had envisioned it. Highly recommend! read more

My wife and I got married at San Jose City Hall, and Got Light did an amazing job with the lighting. During the whole event planning process Kristina was extremely helpful and responsive. The lighting definitely made our wedding feel extra special. read more

Seriously signed up for a yelp account JUST to write this review. LOVE Got-Light, LOVE the crew, esp. JON! My wedding was only 4 days ago and seriously... the one memory left in all the madness of such a wonderful day is the ambiance Got-Light created. Basking in the light of their amazing design made me see how everything came together in full circle. The many, many tears from planning had all paid off for that one moment of silence sitting by my husband in a beautiful room, surrounded by the people we love. Jon must be half magician cause he turned a cafe into something out of this world! Got-Light rocks, I'm going through withdrawal! First and last post ever, JUST to give a big shout out to my homies at GL. Peace out yelpers! read more

I want to preface this review by saying that I don't like using yelp, or writing bad reviews for companies, but when I get royally screwed, I like to look out for the common man. I got married recently in San Francisco, and to save money my fiancee Beth and I wanted to plan the wedding ourselves. We contacted Got Light a month in advance to rent some drape for the reception hall, which we wanted to do in orange. Got Light said that was no problem, and we were good to go. Now fast forward to three days before the wedding. Where I get a call from a girl named Haylee, who tells me that Got Light doesn't have the drape in stock any more, apparently it was already promised to another job. I asked her why had I not been informed of this earlier, and pretty much got no answer. I figure that someone with more money would of course get the preferred treatment. Finally after arguing for almost an hour, I convinced them (with the threat of a negative yelp, im somewhat disheartened to say) to rent me the drape, although they insisted that a) I use a cash deposit, and b) i promise not to give them a 1 star yelp review. I mean come on, is this the world we live in, where a yelp review is currency? That just sounds so pathetic to me as a consumer. But oh well, I was going to get the drape for my wedding, so everything was good right? WRONG. After I returned the drape, Got Light contacted me again, informing me that I had "damaged" the drape and would be charged a 400 dollar cleaning fee, conveniently the amount of the cash deposit I had left. I countered that they needed to show me pictures of the damage, but already having left the cash with them, I knew I had no shot coming out on top, and sure enough, here it is weeks later, and I have heard nothing from them. So I guess these guys don't like dealing with the worthless, cheap little guys anymore, but since i'm a man of my word, here you are Got Light, a non- 1 star review. read more

This is an update to a previous review. I am so grateful to be working with Jon and his company for my wedding in October. We were initially told that because of a 6 month policy that we would not be able to work with Got Light, which completely shattered my vision (brides-to-be know exactly how unnerving this feeling can be - cue meltdown). After writing a review about this policy, Jon, the owner, personally reached out to my fiancé to apologize for the inconsistent implementation of the policy, which they no longer adhere to, AND agreed to personally do our wedding. I won't get into the incredible deal that he graciously offered us because I would never want yelp to be used to take advantage of Got Light, but I will say my wedding will exceed my dream vision because of him. Do you want a company that 1) is honest, has integrity and is willing to change policies that aren't working for their clients; 2) is willing to meet their clients more than half way; 3) employs incredible artists who can bring your vision to life and 4) has a really good looking owner? If you've said yes to even one of these, PLEASE book Got Light for your next event. read more

i won't be using got light for my wedding. we chose a place that didn't need lighting. but if i had gone with the regency center, i would've definitely gone with them. i thought their rates were reasonable (around $1400) and they were really good about emailing and very communicative. overall, my little experience with them was very excellent. : ) read more

My wife and I hired Got Light to provide the lighting services for our wedding which we held as the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers. They are the only approved lighting vendor for this venue which made things easy since we didn't have to choose from multiple vendors. We were surprised to find out that the basic package for Got Light does not provide that much lighting so we added in the specialty item of the bistro lighting as well as some of their "pacific globes" which looked beautiful in the Orchid Pavilion. Kristina was our contact for the lighting and she was very kind, professional, and able to provide us with sound/useful advice as we decided on our final lighting arrangement. It's challenging to comment on how fair the pricing was as we did not have the option to look at other vendors, but their services are certainly not cheap. However, you are paying a premium for high quality, professional services and we were very satisfied with the job they did for our wedding. read more
