Make a statement while creating a functional ambiance
A pattern of zig, zagging lights provides positive energy to a previously dark location.
We provide professional design with quality control
Our superior lighting experience, knowledge & support are included with every project
Let’s face it, we live in a mountain community with natural weather occurrences that bring heavy winds and precipitation. Quality control service calls are a standard with our service packages, especially during winter before each holiday to be sure your lights are at peak performance all year long. Our lights are commercial LED grade, with a longer life, using 30% less energy than a standard conventionally purchased led bulb.
Our string lighting experiences options include:
- Festival / Suspended
- Overhead Lighting
- Lit Spheres
Seasonal Lighting in Our Mountain Communities
Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of working on holiday lighting projects for many of our neighbors around Aspen, Steamboat Springs, and Telluride. Browse our portfolio for a closer look at our recent work.
Our Unique Lights Are State-of-the-Art LED
Better for the environment & saving you money on your electricity bill
We are the seasonal LED lighting experts
Breathe new life into once normally dark, winter evenings
Create an exciting lit up zone for friends, customers and/or employees too easily navigate without putting up a fence or border. And when the winter months reduce the amount of daylight hours, the area will remain well lit.
By expanding your outdoor area for both visibility and safety, you can be confident that once potentially hazardous areas around stairs and entrance ways are more visible and secure.
We can decrease light pollution during the holiday season through changing the way we light our properties. We install shielded lights with warmer color temperatures, and only have these lights on when and where we need them. Light pollution negatively impacts birds in a variety of ways – Many people don’t realize that most songbirds that migrate do so at night– so the less light pollution, the better.
Our Clients Appreciate Creative Design and Hassle-Free Service
After decades of experience in the area, we’ve developed long-lasting relationships with clients who depend upon us for our seasonal lighting services. This is what they have to say about working with us:
You choose the color scheme and the design
We custom design a unique lighting experience that meets your needs.
Unique bulbs or changing colors can complete the entire look and experience. Matching the same color tone consistently throughout the landscape will define your property without you ever getting on a ladder.

Transparency and Simplicity: A Proven Process
Whether you’re planning a holiday lighting project, scheduling a consultation, or taking care of your trees, we make it easy to get started with us. We follow a simple, transparent process to ensure we get your project completed efficiently and according to your wishes.
Why do we takedown & reinstall lights?
We are always concerned first with the health of the trees, always looking to protect them and the environment. Removing and reinstalling the lights after the winter months allows us to install the lights in new spots on the trees and loosen the lights to allow for new growth (especially at the tops of the trees which controls the hormones of the trees).
Lights are made from a single wire with sockets crimped onto the wire which causes a stress point that rarely causes issues in the first two years but the frequency of these problems greatly increase in the third and fourth years. Wind stretches and pulls the wires as does branches bending with the snow load and moisture can more easily reach the wire to create shorts.
THE BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH ASPEN TREE SERVICE FOR YOUR HOLIDAY LIGHTING
Clark Griswold may inspire the DIY spirit in you, but he should also probably serve as a bad example. Effective holiday lighting displays must be thoughtfully designed and carefully installed using the right equipment for the job to ensure everyone’s safety. Hiring our professional team saves you time and money in the long run—not to mention the hassle of storing (and then annually untangling) lights, managing burnt-out bulbs, and trying to get the whole display taken down before spring (after snow melt).
