CCWP spreads the message at SLO Farmer’s market

Sticky Post By Kramer Events On July 9, 2009 With No Comments

Volunteers from CCWP help spread the message about the devastation that the proposed “Event’s Ordinance” would cause the San Luis Obispo County every Thursday at Farmer’s Market in downton SLO. Our numbers are increasing every week as more and more people learn the truth. Most of the locals we spoke with were shocked and stunned to hear that this ordinance was even being considered.This ordinance effectively bans most weddings from Ag Zoned lands, destroys local jobs, and decreases tourism to our County. If this passes, local businesses will be seeing red because of lost income from wedding business and lost jobs. The County will be seeing red from lost tourism and taxes. And the engaged women who dreamed of getting married at these many beautiful outdoor venues will be red with anger when all of their wedding locations disappear with the stroke of a pen by the county planning commission.We invite everyone to come out and join us next Thursday from 6pm-9pm in front of Bubble Gum Alley on Higuera St in down Town SLO to show their support and help spread the message. Bring a friend and wear red. If our voice gets loud enough, we can stop this ordinance together. Join us and help make a difference!“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” -Margaret Mead

Events Ordinance threatens to shut down weddings

Sticky Post By Kramer Events On July 7, 2009 With 5 Comments

The San Luis Obispo County supervisors is considering passing a proposal that would limit Wedding Receptions to 50 guests or less when held at an “Ag-Zoned” property. With the average Central Coast Wedding having a guest count of 125, passing of this proposal would realistically eliminate about 95% of the weddings on these properties.

Some of the most beautiful rustic properties and barns would no longer be available for our brides to have their dream weddings at. Our brides lose, the property owners lose, the wedding industry loses, the county loses millions in tourism dollars from out of town guests, and our local government loses sale tax dollars. Help us stop this devastating ordinance put together by a few wealthy landowners who had a few isolated problems with one venue.

-Join us at the CCWP booth every Thursday evening at the San Luis Farmer’s market, sign our petition, and help spread the word.

-Join us and the hundreds of outraged people who will be storming the July 30th Planning Commission meeting at 9am. CCWP will be distributing their red shirts at the door for us all to wear.

Wedding at Meridan Winery, Paso Robles, CA

Sticky Post By Kramer Events On July 3, 2009 With No Comments

We just got pictures back from the Mike Larson Photography Team from a wedding we did together at Meridian Winery in Paso Robles. We got a chance to try out our new high powered LED up lighting. What makes it so different is that they can change to any color instantly or through a slow fade. We worked with wedding coordinator Laura Robertson from TOS events to install landscape lighting outside to help illuminate the walkway and define the outdoor space.

When it came time for the first dance, as Pat and Carrie stepped onto the dance floor, the entire room slowly changed color to red, with fucia accents on the 2 pillars. When the first note hit our sparkle lights came on lightly swept their dance floor. It was a great romantic evening.

Lighting up the Cliffs Resort Ballroom, Shell Beach CA

Sticky Post By Kramer Events On July 2, 2009 With No Comments

Before

The Cliffs Ballroom in Shell Beach is the perfect venue for an incredible wedding. The ceremony overlooks the Ocean, the ballroom looks amazing, the staff is extremely customer service oriented, and the food is incredible. We were excited to bring our new Kramer Entertainment LED uplighting, and LED pin pots for Andrea and Wess’s Wedding Reception. You can see the before picture to the left with only house lights on.

Below you can see what happens when we turn the house lights off and turn our lighting on. The background LED uplighting you see on the walls can be changed to any color or gently fade between colors. Imagine stepping onto the dance floor for your special dance and the entire room changes color.

The first things your guest will see are the incredible Flowers, done by Panacea, because there are pin spot lights mounted on the ceiling shooting directly at them.

Thanks to Mike Larson Photography for these pictures.

LED Pinspot Lighting for the cake table

Sticky Post By Kramer Events On June 24, 2009 With 1 Comment

Have you ever heard of people getting lights specifically for the cake table? It sounds like overkill.

Pinspot lighting is used all the time to originate from above and shine a tight beam on your centerpieces. This brings your centerpeices to life. The same can be done for the cake or in this case, cup cake table. When your attending your next indoor wedding try to find the cake table as quickly as you can. Then imagine one or 2 pinspot lights hitting it. It’s a world of difference. It takes the cake out of the background and make it the centerpiece. Our brides were frustrated spending $500 or more on a beautifuly decorated cake that nobody could see or notice because of lighting. That’s all changed. Ask about our new LED cake lighting option for your wedding. Picture by Jayson Mellom.
