Wedding Hippodrome Springfield, Ma

This series of pictures was taken in March of 2007. The Hippodrome was decorated for a wedding. The lighting was incredible. The tables that you see below were lit using the Hippodrome's intelegent lighting. Most are Martin fixtures (918's and Mac 550's) cntrolled with a Light Jockey.

Most of the uplighting was done with colorkinetics LED fixtures which were rented.

The Paramount Theater's original movie screen is still in good working order and is put to good use during events. The screen is 45 feet wide and weighs 2ooo pounds. It is lowered and raised useing the theater's fly system and counter wieghts

The Hippodrome is a great place to have banquets and funtions. The room itself allows you to do things that a typical ballroom can't. A 60 foot high cieling and $500,000.00 worth of production equipment make anything possible. There is a great sound system, Intelligent and static stage lighting, special effects like snow and wind machines, and a broadcast quality video system, including cameras, mixing board, and an Avid editing suite installed for video production using the movie screens and 20 or so remote tv's installed throughout the facility.


Some of the weddings that have been held at the Hippodrome have used DJ's and live bands. For this one we used a DJ and a troupe of Cirque Du Soleil performers.
