Melissa came to Vibe Illuminations Inc. in November 2022 with a problem. You see, for Christmas 2021, she’d set up a pretty epic surprise for her girlfriend. Melissa had hired carolers to come to the house and sing for them, and while they were singing, she proposed! Which was amazing, but led to a problem for Christmas 2022: how would she top that?
You might have seen Melissa’s TikTok video explaining the dilemma – over 35,000 people have liked it.
Melissa’s fiancée, Tracy, just LOVES Christmas lights! To say she absolutely adores them is an understatement. Melissa on the other hand, thinks that they’re a lot of trouble for something that won’t be up very long. She’s not wrong. Traditional Christmas lights are a lot of work – you need to find where you put them when you took them down, untangle the wires (how do they always manage to get tangled?), test them to make sure they’re still working, get out the ladder, climb up to the eaves, attach the lights, and then do the whole process in reverse a month or two later. Because it’s Canada, it’s never warm when you put up or take down traditional Christmas lights – if you’re lucky you’ll get one out of two but not both.
Enter Vibe Illuminations Inc., the answer to Melissa’s problem. By having permanent outdoor LED lights installed, she could give her fiancée the Christmas lights she desired without doing the “up the ladder and down the ladder” dance every year. With an almost unlimited number of colour options and dozens of pre-set animations and patterns to choose from, Gemstone Lights really are the best Christmas lights out there!
Melissa arranged for us to come and install the lights while Tracy was away. Her first video showed some of her favourite features – how many colours there were, how easy they were to control and how she could use them all year round. The second video – where she surprised her fiancée with the lights, got over 45 000 likes – because who doesn’t love a Christmas surprise?
