Yes, we light homes in Westfield. We are about 20 minutes away, installs start in September, and our last install date before Christmas is December 10.
Tree-lined streets and classic homes
Westfield's streets are full of mature trees and well-kept houses, with a mix of Colonials, Tudors, Victorians, and Cape Cods. Many are close to the downtown and the train, which means a lot of neighbors walk past every evening.
That makes front-facing detail count. We focus on the roofline, the entry, and the plantings you see from the sidewalk, and keep the design warm and balanced so it suits the street.

A closer look at Westfield
Westfield has a strong sense of community, and its holiday spirit shows. The downtown is lively, the streets are shaded by mature trees, and families walk to the park and to the shops.
A display on a Westfield street is seen by neighbors every day, so we aim for neat, warm lighting that feels like part of the town. Homes here range from stately Colonials and Tudors to cozy Cape Cods and Victorians, often on lots with generous front yards.
Many have beautiful old trees that frame the house and shade the walk. Those trees are a gift for holiday lighting.
We like to start with what the house already does well. A Colonial's symmetry, a Tudor's steep roof, and a Victorian's porch each suggest a lighting plan.
When the lights follow the architecture, the result looks natural and lasting. Westfield's downtown is known for being friendly and busy at the holidays, and many homeowners are only a short walk from it.
Evening strolls through the neighborhoods around downtown are part of the season, and homes with warm, well-planned lights are the ones people remember. Because Westfield has so many mature trees, we often combine roofline lighting with a few wrapped trunks.
The combination gives a house both shape and softness, and it looks lovely from the street.
Holiday lighting designs for Westfield
Most displays combine a few of these design types. Here is how each one works on Westfield homes.
Roofline lighting
Roofline lighting on a Westfield Colonial keeps lines even and balanced, while on a Tudor it traces the steep gables.
Wreaths
Matching wreaths on every front window and the door look polished on a symmetrical Westfield Colonial.
Garlands
Garland on porches and front steps brings a traditional look to Victorians and Capes.
Tree and shrub wraps
Wrapped trees and shrubs at the front of the lot tie the display to Westfield's leafy streets.
Windows and doors
Window and door framing is a classic way to show off shutters, trim, and paneled doors.
Porches and pathways
Lit walks and steps make the route from street to door a welcome in itself.
Lighting ideas for Westfield homes
Honor symmetry
On a Colonial, keep the display balanced from side to side. Matching lines on both sides of the front door look polished and classic.
Trace the Tudor
Steep gables and half-timbering look rich when their edges are lit. Use a thin, even line.
Light the Victorian porch
Run lights along the porch roof and railing, and frame the front steps.
Use the street trees
A wrapped trunk or two near the sidewalk ties your lights to the street.
