Breakup wash and Gobos are the icing on the cake when it comes to decorative lighting and is a technique that usually pulls the whole lighting design together. It is usually either seen as a dappled or patterned light effect that is shone over the tables and floor but can also be shone onto walls or the ceiling in a colour that fits with the theme of your event.

It is possible to create either a sharp patterned image or alternatively, can be used with a soft-focus to create more of a textured effect (or ideally both!). The colours selected would usually be the same or complementing colour to the uplighters and in theme with your event colour scheme or branding. These lights are dimmable so that the mood can be set just right creating the perfect ambience.

This lighting technique is especially useful when trying to get great photos and videos of your event providing a lovely warm glow over the space and guests. To see more images of events where breakup wash and Gobos have been utilised please click herefor breakup wash and here for gobos.
