Any event with more than a handful of people requires professional audio visual equipment to make it enjoyable and engaging for all attendees. Whether you’re saying “I do” with waves crashing behind you or holding a concert with thousands of attendees at a college campus, you’ll need to have the proper equipment in place to ensure an unforgettable time. As the leading providers of audio visual and staging equipment in Batavia, NY, Audio Images Sound & Lighting has compiled some helpful information to walk you through your next event.

A Guide to Audio Visual Equipment Rentals for Events

What’s the Main Event?

First and foremost, consider the nature of your event. A festival or performing act will warrant more equipment than a wedding or corporate event, but each demands professional audio and video equipment to ensure a quality experience for guests. Consider which elements of the event guests will need to see and hear, and then make sure equipment is in place to accommodate those aspects accordingly. Professional projectors can be immensely useful for ensuring everyone in your audience can see your presentation, and mics and speakers are also a must.

What Ambiance Do You Hope to Achieve?

While audio visual equipment has its place in both professional and entertainment settings, you can pick and choose which systems you use to support your intended vibe. Equipment like mics and speakers alone may suffice in subdued settings, such as where vows are exchanged or speeches are given at corporate events. For livelier events such as festivals and concerts, however, it’s more appropriate to incorporate concert lighting to make a captivating visual impact and evoke enthusiasm among the crowd.

How Many Attendees Will You Have?

Lastly, think about how many guests you’ll have in attendance. Performances at clubs may not necessitate screens for attendees to see musicians, but at larger venues, visibility could become an issue with massive crowds. Audio visual equipment can be strategically implemented into your staging plan to ensure everyone has access seeing and hearing every moment of your event. The size of the crowd you intend to draw will also help you decide which amplifiers you’ll need, since you’ll want to achieve the appropriate volume to suit your setting.
