Powered by Event Rentals NYC — a KLAV Group Company

Throwing a Bachelorette Party in Wicker Park means one thing: the night has to hit. Great lighting, clean sound, and a dance floor that feels like a private club. This checklist covers every piece of AV gear you need, how many to rent, when to book it, and what it typically costs through Event Rentals NYC.

1. Sound

The backbone of any bachelorette — speeches, playlists, and a dance floor that actually bumps.

2. Lighting

Wicker Park venues often have flat overhead lighting — you'll want to transform the room.
