I hired Stage Labs for our staff holiday party and they were awesome to work with! I was so glad we decided to rent lighting and they really nailed it with everything they provided. I had a planning call beforehand, where they talked me through all the products and how it would all work. On the day, their on site team was such a pleasure to work with. The entire set up team worked swiftly and were very professional and friendly. John, our on site tech, was always readily available and helped us shift a few things along the way. Big kudos to him for crushing it. I look forward to working with them again in the future! read more

Brad and Ace were so game to help with all our ideas and brought our wedding to life in the most magical way! The lighting, sound and rigging activated the space and truly took it to the next level. They were also so collaborative, we had many meetings and an on-site walkthrough to make sure we were all aligned. All our i's were dotted and t's crossed. I would happily work with Stage Labs for any future event and highly recommend their services! read more

I first met Brad several months ago as I was co-planning a gala for a non-profit organization. Brad's knowledge, expertise, and calm, "can do"demeanor left a great first impression. As we all know, having a strong AV team is crucial to the success of live events, and let me just say, Brad, Matt, Ari and Angel knocked it out of the park! The screens looked amazing, the cords were perfectly hidden, and the video quality was superb, the up lights set the perfect mood, the sound quality was excellent! Zero mic feedback, everything regarding the presentation was perfectly cued, and they even set up a privacy screen so that the AV corner looked extra professional and tidy! During the fundraiser I was having a hard time remembering how to update our fundraising thermometer, and Ari kindly offered help and literally figured it out in 2 minutes! The entire stage labs team was truly a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond. Highly, highly recommend! You won't be disappointed!! read more

We had a vision for our wedding lighting and not only did Brad and Stage Labs meet it, they surpassed all expectations. Brad is so enthusiastic about lighting, and learning different ways to elevate it. That's what he and his excellent team did when we told them we wanted a combination of eucalyptus and disco balls for our big night. He had never worked with eucalyptus before, but showed such an interest in learning about how to work with it. We love his passion for production and it really shows with the outcome. To this day, our guests still rave about the amazing lighting. They were instantly enamored when they walked in for the ceremony, but were then blown away when the lighting transformed for the reception and dance portion. It went from elegant and classy to straight up fun and lively. We wanted a nightclub vibe and Stage Labs did that for us. The disco balls rotated and cascaded gorgeous lights all over the room. And the lights changed colors to match the music and vibe! All around magnificent and a must recommend. Also, a shoutout to Amy for her facilitation with the process and communication! Thank you, Stage Labs! read more

Stage Labs - Amazing Discoball setup by Stagelabs! - Audio/Visual Equipment Rental Near Me

I cannot give Brad, Amy, and the Stage Labs team enough praise!!! We hired them to do the lighting and disco ball installation for our wedding on 12/30/23. Throughout the entire process (almost 2 years from booking to wedding) they were incredibly communicative, kind, and helpful! They hopped on multiple email exchanges and calls to make sure we got what we wanted. Brad worked with our budget and gave us exactly what we wanted. It was the reception and dance floor installation of my Pinterest dreams. To this day, the guests can't stop talking about it. Would recommend Brad and Stage Labs over and over again!! read more

Brad and team are incredible visionaries when it comes to all things lighting! I'm a wedding planner and collaborating with them to bring weddings to life via lighting is always an excellent experience. Brad's enthusiasm for lighting and creativity when it comes to thinking outside the lighting box makes him an incredibly valuable creative partner. Highly recommend to couples and other wedding pros alike! read more

As soon as I heard back from Brad about a Zoom setup for my wedding and set up a call with him, I knew we'd be working with him and his team. Zoom weddings are a relatively new concept, so we didn't know exactly what we were walking into, but we were blown away by how well organized and produced our Zoom wedding was. They positioned the cameras in discreet positions, zoomed in/out, panned, and switched views very appropriately. They live chatted with our Zoom guests to make sure they went into the breakout rooms they wanted to go to. Brad and his team were extremely responsive, accommodating, and provided very speedy and reasonably-priced service. It's clear they love what they do and are amazing at it. I'm looking forward to the next event where I can work with them again! read more

Mother of the bride here to say what a fabulous job Brad and his team did. Amy was so communicative and helpful and Brad was on it all! He listened to what we wanted, traveled to the venue several times and executed our idea with perfection. Can't thank Stage Labs enough for being so good at what they do! read more

Brad and the Stage Labs team did such an incredibly job transforming our venue space! We knew we wanted an array of disco balls, but had no idea how to go about doing it and we're so happy we found Stage Labs. They came very highly recommended by our venue and we couldn't be happier with the work they did and how everything turned out. They were very communicative over emails and were more than happy to take what we wanted and put their own unique spin on it to make it absolutely perfect. We loved working with them and would absolutely recommend them to anyone who has disco ball / lighting needs for their event! read more

So happy we decided to hire Stage Labs for our wedding! Brad and Amy are just so friendly and so easy to work with, and the lighting and other elements we used just took our wedding vibe to the next level. We got married on 10/28/23 at Smogshoppe, which has specific rules regarding hanging lighting/fog machines, etc. However, Brad and Stage Labs know our venue front to back and even provided us with a brochure specific to our venue and clearly outlined what we can/can't do which made the process of selecting our lighting elements soooo easy. The end results really come through in our photos and our ambience was just perfect. Also, the customer service that Stage Labs provided was just phenomenal. Our original quote was much higher than we anticipated, but Stage Labs worked with us and we were able to figure out how to get the most important elements within our budget easily and without judgement! Highly recommended! read more

The Stage Labs team did an absolutely INCREDIBLE job with lighting elements for our wedding - and truly helped set an incredible tone and vibe for our special day!!!!! They worked seamlessly with our planner and venue and we simply got to arrive on our wedding day and enjoy it all - NO issues at all. True professionals and an absolute joy to work with!!!!! read more

We used Stage Labs for our wedding lightings and I do not regret at all our decision. Stage Labs has very competitive prices and great lighting system quality, do not waste your time shopping around just trust Brad and his great team. Not only price were great but also Brad was always on top of all our special request and managed to find us equipments that were originally not part of their usual supply, also one day before the wedding we realized we missed to order two projectors and Brad saved us by taking care of it last minute at again a more than reasonable cost. It has been a great pleasure communicating and dealing with this company and the owner Brad, wish that all rental companies were that customer service oriented, fair and that responsive... Thank you very much!! read more

Brad and Stage Labs saved my wedding day! I realized that I didn't have draping for my gobo 1 week before my wedding, but Brad made it happen. His pricing was also a lot more affordable than some other vendors. He was very professional, attentive, and kind. My ivory draping was set up before all the other vendors arrived and it was absolutely beautiful. Thank you again! read more

Stage Labs did the lighting for our wedding. It looked like an awesome rock concert! It was amazing. Everything was lit so well. During the walk through, I would ask Brad if we could do something with lighting in a corner and he suggested five different scenarios. If I get divorced and then get married again, I would suggest Stage Labs for my second wedding (Although, that's not going to happen, at least I hope :) ). I kid. read more

Our experience with "Stage Labs", run by Brad Kemp, for our wedding was extremely positive. They were reliable, and provided an excellent consultation, which gave us the opportunity to personalize our experience with options we had never even heard of! The light tech, Raul Lopez, was not only courteous, but also very experienced and provided creative and effective solutions to our planning wherever it was needed. Our guests were impressed and positively surprised with the work, and the equipment was so well hidden guests kept asking how it was done. The photographs of our names and wedding date projections went right onto our thank you card designs. read more

If you know what you are doing, hire Stage Labs now. Brad and his team at Stage Labs win the MVP award for my wedding this past June at The Maxwell House in Pasadena. The entire place was absolutely stunning from top to bottom, and it was his lighting that made it all possible. Early in the wedding planning process, I reached out to Stage Labs and Brad responded right away and suggested we do a walk-through of the venue to put together our order. I had ideas in mind (mainly pictures pulled from Pinterest), but really did not have specific plans in place. Brad jumped in and had the most incredible recommendations to create a cohesive experience for our guests, from the ceremony room and bar area during the day, to the outdoor dining area as the sun was setting, to the dance party and cake room, and it keeps going. Brad came up with this gorgeous design for our altar, then made sure that all of the rooms (bar, buffet, cocktail area) looked like a page straight out of the royal wedding handbook. He also recommended adding a spotlight for our wedding cake, which came out AMAZING in all of our friend's photos. Out front of the venue, there was a beautiful tree that we would pass during our grand exit. Brad suggested hanging these beautiful natural-looking globes filled with string lights. At night, these were absolutely dreamy. Brad is truly an artist, and I cannot thank him enough for making my wedding so beautiful. read more

I preface this with the fact that I am a wedding planner in need of vendors on a regular basis. I've worked with Brad at Stage Labs several times and not only feel content with their services but know that they will always exceed my expectations! I always experience wonderful communication and professionalism, be it via email or in person. Keep in mind that I have access to a full range of potential lighting companies for my events and I know that Stage Labs will always be the best in terms of quality and pricing. Stage Labs will always be #1 in my book.! read more

As an entertainment pro I am picky when it comes to Audio/Video/Lighting, and I cannot say enough good things about Brad and the top-notch Stage Labs team. Stage Labs took a bare venue with 5+ rooms and office-sterile lighting, transforming it into the most elegant black-tie evening. The foyer was a stunner, with rich gold accents, soft spots and lanterns, adding purple hues as the sun went down, and a side room became the hippest-looking bar in LA. Beyond the attention to detail I experienced an exceptional level of service, and every member of his crew was incredibly friendly and happy to help. read more

Amazing job! Brad and his team made my client's virtual baby shower a breeze. The pricing was competitive and the service was outstanding! I look forward to working with Stage Labs on future events. read more

I cannot express how AMAZING Stage Labs is. I work with them regularly at The Ebell of Los Angeles. Brad and his team of tireless wizards make my job as an event planner so much easier. They not only are total professionals and make magic happen, they are also a joy to work with and always go above and beyond for their clients! I would never go to any other company. They are simply the best. I cannot recommend them more. They are a dream team! read more

My husband and I hired Brad Kemp for our wedding and he far and away exceeded our expectations. He created a gorgeous atmosphere for our special day, in a difficult room to light. The room was absolutely beautiful, romantic and yet subtle. Our guests were blown away by how stunning the room looked, and we could not have agreed more. I could not recommend him highly enough. Thanks again for making our wedding perfect. read more

Brad did a great job doing the sound for our ceremony and the lighting for our cocktail hour and reception! He is very experienced at Hummingbird Nest Ranch and even had great recommendations for us. Definitely recommend working with him. read more

The awesome staff at Stage Labs did the lighting for our summer wedding. The work Stage Labs put together were stunning and really matched the feel of our wedding. We could not have asked for a better artist to bring the wedding to life. Everything, from the set up, actual lighting, and the tear down, were more than we could have asked for! read more

At two weeks prior my wedding in Malibu, the budget was already blown through the roof and I still had to book lighting and valet. My wedding planner had given me the quote from Stage Labs six months earlier and I asked her to negotiate the price downward as we were getting closer to the deadline. Pin spot lighting and uplights were included in the invoice. Brad threw in dimmers and explained to my planner how to operate the lights since I couldn't afford to keep him there all night. Brad went the extra mile and put stars on the ceiling. I knew that lighting is essential for a wedding, but it really made a difference in transforming the space into a party atmosphere. Brad was really friendly and accommodating. He didn't mind that I waited til day of to hand him the check. Whatever you do, the lesson is Do Not Forgo Lighting. I definitely recommend this guy and wish that I could afford to throw more parties so that he could do his magic again. If you want more info or referrals for other wedding vendors, feel free to convo me. read more

Brad was really amazing. He helped us throw our New Year's Eve wedding at the Bel Air Bay Club, and his lighting was fantastic. We had uplights, twinkle lights over the dance floor and he helped us with curtains blocking a bad eye sore. He also set up soft spot lights for the ceremony and an AWESOME GOBO. Brad was super easy to work with and very responsive. He is a great vendor to use for any of your events. read more

Brad and his team were incredible for our most recent event! He was able to make changes and additions to the needed items up until the last minute which we highly appreciated. His team was extremely professional and did a great job. We had an event with speakers and a band and everyone was able to hear everything! There was also a TV for a slideshow that worked flawlessly read more

Brad and Stage Labs did a great job at our wedding! We had a last minute move from outdoors to indoors due to rain and the team was on it. Would definitely recommend! read more

Working with Brad and Hollie was a true delight. So easy to work with and so helpful. I loved that they didn't try to upsell you on anything and were really honest about what works best at our venue. Day of, the lighting at venue looked amazing!!!!! Don't underestimate how much lighting can change a room. I couldn't have been more pleased! Pricing is very reasonable as well. read more

I asked Stage Labs to help set up a music event at a hotel banquet room for the wedding of my dearest friends. In addition to superb live sound, the event required video projection so the audience could sing along with the lyrics. Brad Kemp and his excellent team came through with flying colors, delivering crystalline audio and video that could be seen clearly from every point in the room. Best of all, they handled the logistics with ease and a wonderfully reassuring, can-do attitude. The event was a smash and we couldn't have done it without Stage Labs. They're the very best at what they do and just happen to be perfect gentlemen as well as consummate pros. read more

Not many people realize how important Lighting is, until you have seen it done right. I am a wedding DJ and have seen a ton of weddings, some with lighting, and some without. The ones with lighting always look better, but to be honest I have seen a lot of cheesy lighting jobs, or where the lighting is very clearly "lit". You actually see uplights on the floor, and they get in the way. I had seen some of Brad's work and knew that when my big day came that he was the man to hire... and boy was I right! He literally TRANSFORMED OUR BALLROOM! And gave it a glow and a vibe, that when everyone walked in they just went "wow". I wish I could show pictures of how spectacular the room looked. He not only lit the ballroom, but he gave my cocktail hour a cool vibe.glow, and was so sweet he even lit the ugly bathrooms at the venue to make them appear "cool". Brad was super professional and easy to work with and also did a great job setting up our wedding slideshow with a rear projection, which went effortless and super smooth. Pick up the phone now... and if you are wondering "hmmmm I don't know if we have room in our budget for lighting.... its not that important" MAKE ROOM FOR IT! I cannot express it enough, Brad is the best guy for the job. read more

Stage Labs recently provided tech services for my wedding, reception and a pre-wedding event which involved a live band, lights, and a giant video screen. Brad and his team were a dream to work with. Everything was executed perfectly, looked/sounded great, and I couldn't believe how easy the whole experience was to plan. They handled every detail perfectly. I could not have been happier with their work or the experience. read more

Stage Labs did the lighting for our wedding. They were amazing! Totally organized, creative with their concepts, attentive and GREAT pricing. We didn't worry about a thing as they had EVERYTHING covered. Even a last minute big request was met with a "no problem, we totally got it covered" attitude. My wife and I couldn't have been happier with our choice and we HIGHLY recommend Stage Labs. Finally, if you don't believe us, we had many, many guests come up to us and express how amazing the lighting scheme was and how magical it made the setting. You will not go wrong using them. read more

Brad was a pleasure to work with. He took our vision and made it a reality for our wedding at the Bel Air Bay Club. Stage labs was such an easy vendor to work with in that we gave them pictures and a budget and everything came to fruition! Speaking of budget, Brad's prices are the best in the business. He is fair, honest, and just wants a happy customer. I would recommend him to all of our friends and family without a doubt! read more

Stage labs did the lighting for our early spring wedding at Smog Shoppe. They made it look incredible. All the guests had a wow moment when they walked into the indoor space for dinner. Can I give more than 5 stars? read more

Brad at Stage Labs is truly a gem! We loved working with him for our special day. I had a vision for the lighting in the room on our wedding day, but since part of the reception took place in the daylight I wanted to make sure it looked good from 5p on. Brad took care of everything! He knew exactly what colors I was looking for, lit all of the tables and important areas (the cake!!!!) perfectly, and even strung bistro lights across the dance floor to surprise my husband a few days before. Brad is super easy to work with and very fairly priced. He offered me pricing and creative lighting suggestions to accomplish all of my goals without breaking the bank. To top it all off, he projected our somewhat complicated custom monogram on a chimney at our venue that looked AMAZING! Our guests are still telling us how great it looked! As an entertainment professional, I've worked with a lot of lighting/AV teams. Brad is truly the best! read more
