Cescaphe Brides...

What lighting, if any, is included in the package? I will be talking to the sales rep tomorrow, but I'm impatient I want a monogram, and I noticed almost every picture I have seen from a Cescaphe event has one. Wondering if its included? I'm looking to have my wedding at the Downtown Club, now that they've taken over.

Look at Delaware Valley DJs they have lighting.

Fairly certain that it is an additional cost. Also, I don't believe they allow you to have outside lighting vendors - or that may be just for Tendenza, not quite sure.

To do the chandeliers in the Atrium at the Curtis Center, you had to go through Beautiful Blooms.  They also did all the lighting at the Curtis Center (including the monogram/uplighting/dancefloorwash/pinspotting/etc).  They do offer half off the lighting if you do your flowers with them....

I was married at the ballroom in September.  It definitely is an additional cost. They tell you to contact Beautiful Blooms which is their in house florist. I got a price quote from them and also from my DJ (Silversound) and went with the DJ. They were much cheaper!!  Good Luck!

Cescaphe is awesome. Everything they do is top notch! You will have a beautiful wedding day!!

I asked when I called to place my date on hold. I have to use beautiful blooms for lighting but I am not planning on using them for my florist. Any idea how much the monogram and pinspotting for cake would run?

I believe their monogram was $450....I could be wrong

You were allowed to do lighting through another vendor? Everyone I have talked to has said hat lighting can only be through beautiful blooms.

I did a monogram at the Ballroom and it was through my DJ. My florist was Carl Alan. I didn't do any uplighting or anything more than what the Ballroom had.

DO NOT USE CESCAPHE EVENT GROUP.
Joe Volpe and Cescaphe are in breach of contract.
They had an operational issue at the ballroom location resulting in power and AC failure during our event. The DJ was forced to scream introductions and power went out during our first dance. And the heat was an issue throughout the event as AC units kept failing. I cannot look at my video or pictures without crying.
They were aware of this issue as we have since found out that this occured at other events there.
Joe Volpe will not accept responsibility and doesw not stand behind his company.
We have been asking for return calls, meetings, and return of any profit (not Cost) Profit from the event. Joe continues to ignore this for 19 months. We are now forced to take legal action.
JoeVolpe's greed and lack of culpabilty is dissapointing, we had very high expectations and Cescaphe has failed to meet any of them.
