Whether you need the full package or just a few extras to complete your vision, we've got you covered. From DJs and photo booths to lighting, theming, and everything in between. Available across New Zealand.
We've done balls at Rochester, Rutherford Hall, Tupuanuku, and plenty of other Christchurch venues. We know the power setups, the load-in access, and where to rig the truss without blocking sightlines. Our crew arrives in the afternoon, builds the show, runs it all night, and packs it out afterwards. You don't need to think about it.
Great tunes, seamless mixes, and the right vibe for a night of dancing. Our DJ packages include the DJ, sound system, DJ gear, and dance floor lighting. Tech crew handles setup and packdown.
Professional photographer covering backdrop shots, roaming candids, and group photos. Edited high-res digital photos delivered via an online gallery to view and download.
