Producing exquisite events

Vibe, photos, styling… the perfect lighting impacts it all!

Venue Productions are the wizards behind the scenes of any good wedding or party. Not only do they expertly light up a room creating the perfect tone, they also offer draping, theming, smoke machines, impressive chandeliers and more to give your event that extra wow factor!

Led by Matt Powell, Venue Productions combines practicality with a creative flair. “I started working on weddings when I was 16. It was never what I had planned for my life, but I loved the creative side of events. There’s something really rewarding about working on a once-in-a-lifetime moment like a wedding.”

Well known and respected in the event industry, Venue Productions has worked with some of the most beautiful venues that Adelaide has to offer. “We’ve had the privilege of lighting and theming Sunnybrae Estate, Penfolds, Mandalay House, Howard Vineyard, Eos by SkyCity, the Entertainment Centre and Mount Lofty House.

“We’ve also been very privileged to work in some amazing private properties across Adelaide, creating magical spaces. I love seeing all the different ways that people style their gardens and homes, that’s a real joy,” smiles Matt.

Handing your vision over to a business on one of the most special days of your life is a huge exercise in trust. You want to know that when you make your grand entrance, everything’s how you pictured it. Matt and his team make sure that’s their client’s experience.

“For me, it’s not just a business transaction — it’s the creative expression of what we do and how that has a profound impact on people’s big moments. There’s a special sense of joy and gratification that comes out of bringing a magical moment to life.”

Adelady has worked with Venue Productions on events over the last eight years, and another benefit is that working with Matt means you gain a new friend. “We often bump into people years after their wedding or celebration and they still remember you and how much fun they had. I love that,” says Matt.
