Fashion CITED 2013 Approaching March 28th at Frontiers of Flight

 

 

Held in the spring each year, Fashion Cited is one of two signature events held each year as fundraisers for Legal Hospice of Texas.... and is widely regarded as one of Dallas’ premier fashion events! Dallas Light and Sound returns in 2013 for our fifth year of providing comprehensive event production and design services for this fantastic night of style.

In prior years the show has featured many of Dallas’ best and brightest designers. Featured designers have included Shirin Askari, Abi Ferrin, Khanh Nguyen, The House of Dang and Nicholas Villalba. This year’s Fashion Cited is scheduled for March 28, 2013 and promises to be the biggest and best yet! Fashion Cited 2013 returns to the Frontiers of Flight Museum (6911 Lemmon Avenue, Dallas, TX 75209) with attendance expected to exceed 400 patrons. Table seating at the end of the runway and traditional fashion show seating along the sides of the runaway are available now for ticketing.

The event is held annually to benefit Legal Hospice of Texas, a nonprofit law firm providing compassionate legal services at no charge to low income individuals who are terminally ill or HIV positive.  For more information and the latest news on Fashion Cited 2013, check out the event's Facebook page or follow Fashion Cited on Twitter- @FashionCited!

Wedding Cakes Taste Better with Lighting from Dallas Light and Sound

Lighting by Dallas Light and Sound

Shown in the photo at left, a stunning wedding cake by Sugar City Sweets and Celebrations in a photo taken at the Texas Discovery Gardens Bridal Fair and Open House... with cake lighting by Dallas Light and Sound.

Using pin spots, mounted to a truss tower and discretely positioned against one of two columns in the facility, this stunning creation anchored one of the corners of the TDG Grand Hall.

Dallas Light and Sound designer Craig Canant is an expert at lighting bridal and groom cakes, food tables, and tablescapes. Craig reports that he is frequently asked by brides, "Do I really need cake lighting at my wedding?" The answer is always an unequivocal YES.

When posing for photos, proper lighting makes the photos come alive and adds warmth and depth to the images. The cakes look tastier, and the bride and groom acquire and aura of warmth from the lighting. When cakes are positioned for viewing during the reception and prior to cutting, lighting draws the sophisticated eye to the cake. In fact, bride and groom cakes can become one of the visual focal points of the reception room, even in a venue as large as Texas Discovery Gardens.

Don't let your cake get lost at your reception! Instead, bring attention to the beauty of your investment with cake lighting from Dallas Light and Sound.
