Helping our clients determine whether to rig or not to rig is one of the key decisions we guide them through during event planning. As their event production partner, we know that production is often one of the largest budget items—one we take very seriously. Every dollar spent should be intentional, and rigging is a crucial factor in making the most of that investment.
Why Rigging Matters
Rigging is more than just an A/V decision—it can affect multiple budget line items. Many venues charge additional fees for suspending truss, lights, or screens from their ceilings. These costs can vary widely, and understanding them upfront helps event planners allocate their budgets wisely.
We do most of our production planning via Zoom, collaborating with clients all across the country. After hopping off a recent call breaking down a venue’s rigging estimate, we realized this was information worth sharing with a larger audience. So, we put together a quick video to walk through the key considerations.
We Own Our Gear—Including Our Rigging Motors
Unlike many production companies that rely on rentals, we own all our gear, including a brand-new set of motors for our truss. That means more control, greater efficiency, and fewer logistical challenges when it comes to rigging decisions. Owning our equipment gives us the flexibility to design the best possible production setup for your event—without unnecessary rental markups.
