Bringing a Vision to Life: A Stunning Audio-Visual Experience

A surreal celebration for Rachel’s 40th where reality blurred with dreams, and every moment felt like stepping into a visual masterpiece. Under the creative direction of Bow Creative, this milestone birthday in Mt Martha was a fusion of art, music, and magic.

In January, our team at LIDA AV had the honour of delivering a full-scale audio visual hire setup for this unforgettable night. From concept to completion, our goal was to create an immersive and seamless experience that matched the artistic vision of the event.

Collaborative Planning with Bow Creative

Our collaboration with Kath from Bow Creative began early in the planning process. The objective was clear: to design a dynamic space that supported speeches, live performances, and a high-energy dancefloor.

Key AV Design Features:

  • Ambient & Party Lighting: A perfect blend of soft ambient tones for dinner and vibrant lighting for the dancefloor.
  • Professional Audio System: We provided speaker hire solutions that delivered crystal-clear sound for speeches and immersive audio for the DJ set.
  • Visual Elements: Through screen hire and projection, we amplified the artistic theme of the evening with live visuals.
  • Wireless Microphones & Stage Setup: Flawless speech delivery with no technical hitches, ensuring every toast was heard.

On the day of the event, our technicians arrived early to set the stage—literally and figuratively. Every audio-visual component was tested and fine-tuned before the first guest arrived.

Event Day Execution

What We Delivered:

  • Crystal-clear audio tailored to the size and layout of the venue.
  • Adaptive lighting that evolved from soft dinner tones to energetic party mode.
  • Smooth transitions between segments of the evening, from formal to festive.

Rachel’s reaction said it all—she was thrilled! With the dancefloor packed and every moment underscored by professional AV, the night unfolded just as envisioned.

Memorable Moments & Lasting Impressions

The feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Rachel herself shared:

“The AV setup absolutely made the night. The lighting and sound were next level!”

From the enchanting violin performance by Jessica Leigh to the dazzling visuals, every detail came together in a stunning showcase of sound and light.

We’re proud to have played a role in bringing this event to life with our audio visual hire and technical solutions.
