Words to take to your supplier

Let warm light bring the stone walls forward
Warm light reveals the room’s texture and height while the existing walls remain uncovered.

What I want to borrow: Choose architectural light when the room already has surfaces you love. It can give the evening a new atmosphere while keeping the original setting visible.
Adaptation to discuss: Test light on the actual wall rather than selecting from a color swatch. Check the view from seated positions, the photographs and the floor layout with the installer. Existing architectural lighting may already do part of this job.

Questions for our supplier:
• What does the wall look like in our photographs and at our arrival time?
• Can the fixtures and cable routes sit outside guest and service movement?
• Which house lights remain on for normal use and departure?

Scope to confirm: Warm architectural lighting with positions and controls agreed to the actual stone surfaces.
Responsible people: Venue service lead and styling supplier; one owner for installation and collection.
Before confirming: The venue and qualified installer must approve power, heat clearance and cable routes; test color on site.
Working example (replace with actuals): Mock up one complete table with the service lead. Multiply only the tested arrangement by the number of tables using it, then list any agreed spares.
