From a Marrakech wedding to your venue: learn how to plan monogram and logo projections for weddings and events. Covers projection surfaces, distance, logo file prep, venue permissions, and indoor vs outdoor unit selection — with product recommendations.
A client in Marrakech came to us with a clear vision: transform their wedding venue with immersive projection lighting that felt seamless with the existing decor. One of the key challenges was integrating a wedding gobo projector into a richly decorated space without disrupting the aesthetic — and incorporating custom laser-etched monogram elements into the event design.
We successfully implemented a high-power projection lighting solution that projected the couple's monogram and decorative patterns across the venue walls and dance floor, creating an atmosphere that guests described as unforgettable.
This project reflects our commitment to delivering wedding logo projection and event gobo light solutions that elevate the overall ambiance and create lasting impressions.
A monogram projector for wedding use is only as good as the planning behind it. The five factors below determine whether your projection looks crisp and intentional — or washed out and misaligned.
Surface choice has the single biggest impact on image quality.
Tip: If your venue has dark walls, request a site visit or ask for photos in advance. A 150 W unit will recover contrast that a 50 W unit cannot.
Projection size is determined by the distance between the projector and the surface, combined with the lens ratio.
| Throw Distance | Approx. Image Width (0.33 lens) | Recommended Wattage |
|---|---|---|
| 2 – 4 m | 0.6 – 1.3 m | 50 W – 80 W |
| 4 – 8 m | 1.3 – 2.6 m | 110 W – 150 W |
| 8 – 15 m | 2.6 – 5 m | 150 W – 200 W |
| 15 m+ | 5 m+ | 200 W – 400 W |
Measure the distance from your intended mounting point (ceiling truss, balcony rail, or tripod stand) to the target surface before selecting a unit.
Your custom gobo disc is laser-etched from your artwork. Providing the right file ensures the sharpest possible result.
Always confirm the following with your venue coordinator before booking equipment:
| Indoor Venue | Outdoor / Garden Reception | |
|---|---|---|
| IP Rating | Not required (standard housing) | IP65 minimum; IP67 for exposed locations |
| Wattage | 50 W – 150 W depending on ambient light | 110 W – 300 W to compete with ambient light |
| Best projection time | Any time (controllable lighting) | After sunset for maximum contrast |
| Mounting | Ceiling truss, wall bracket, tripod | Ground spike, pole mount, or weatherproof bracket |
| Gobo type | Full-color glass for rich monograms | Single-color or full-color glass; ensure gobo housing is sealed |

Q: When should I order my custom gobo disc?
Order at least 3 weeks before your event to allow for production (7–14 days) and shipping. Rush options may be available — contact us to confirm lead times for your date.
Q: Can I project onto a colored wall?
Yes, but lighter surfaces produce the best contrast. On mid-tone walls, increase wattage by one tier. On dark walls, consider a portable white fabric panel as a projection surface.
Q: How do I focus the projector on the night?
All Gobohub projectors include a manual focus ring. Set up the unit at your planned mounting position, power on, and rotate the focus ring until the image is sharp. Allow 30 minutes for setup and adjustment before guests arrive.
Q: Can the same projector be used for multiple events?
Yes. The gobo disc is swappable — order a new custom disc for each event or client, and reuse the projector body indefinitely.
