Tree & Shrub Lighting That Brings Your Yard Into the Holidays.

A favorite tree by the driveway or the shrubs below your windows can become part of Christmas at home. We wrap trunks, light branches, and decorate the landscaping you choose.

A closer look at your yard

Tree & Shrub Lighting at Every Height

The shape of a tree helps us decide how best to accent it. Wrapped trunks show off its structure, while lights in the branches and shrubs spread the display across more of your yard.

  • Wrapped Tree Trunks

    A trunk wrap follows the shape of the tree from the ground upward. It is a good starting point when you want to feature a tree without lighting every branch.

    • Individual trees near the driveway
    • Rows of trunks along the yard
    • Main branches included where suitable
  • Tree Branch Lighting

    Lights carried into the branches give a tree a fuller presence after dark. We'll look at your tree with you and decide how far into the branches you'd like the lights to go.

    • Lights along the main branches
    • A larger feature in the front yard
    • As much or as little of the tree as you like
  • Bush & Shrub Lighting

    Lighting your bushes and shrubs fills in the space below the trees and ties the yard together. If you have a row of shrubs along the house or a planted bed by the porch, we can light them so your display carries all the way to the front door.

    • Foundation shrubs
    • Bushes beside the porch
    • Planting beds near the entrance
  • Colors for Your Landscaping

    Use one color throughout the yard or give a particular tree its own color. If you already have lights on the house, we can help you choose a combination that works with them.

    • Warm white lights
    • Holiday color combinations
    • Matching lights for later additions

Choosing your trees

Plan Your Tree Lighting From the View You Enjoy

Think about the trees you already notice when you pull into the driveway or look out the front window. Lighting even one of them can make a big difference. Send us a photo of those trees, and we'll help you decide which ones to decorate.

  • Show the whole tree, including its upper branches
  • Point out shrubs that are easy to miss in the photo
  • Tell us whether you'd like the trunks wrapped or lights out in the branches

How we work with you

Lighting Your Home's Trees and Shrubs

Your landscaping gives you plenty of places to start your design, even if you only want a few lights this year. We can help you choose the trees and shrubs you will enjoy seeing most often.

A Favorite Front-Yard Tree

Give the tree beside your driveway or front window its own place in the display.

Shrubs Beneath the Windows

Decorate the planting beds along your home to add light below the windows and porch.

Lights Along the Front Walk

Stake lights along the front walk connect your tree and shrub lights to the front door. Using the same colors as your trees makes the path feel like part of the landscaping.

An Outline on the House

An outline on the roof gives your tree and shrub lights a backdrop, so the yard and the house glow together. We'll pick colors that work with the lights in your trees.

Full-service Christmas lighting

FAQs

Tree & Shrub Lighting Questions

Every tree is a little different, so most questions start with how much of it to light and how it will look from the house. Here's what customers ask us most.

What affects the price of tree & shrub lighting?

The size and number of plants, along with the amount of lighting you want, shape the quote. A trunk wrap involves different work from carrying lights out through the branches.

Show us the trees and shrubs you have in mind. We can usually start your free quote from photos.

How do I choose between a trunk wrap and branch lighting?

A trunk wrap emphasizes the shape of the trunk and main branches. Branch lighting spreads the lights farther through the tree for a fuller display.

We can talk through both options once we see your tree, including how it will look from the house or street.

Can you light just one tree?

Yes. You can start with one tree, a few shrubs, or a combination of the two. Roofline lighting is not required.

If you want to expand later, we can quote additional trees or other areas separately.

Can new tree lights match my existing We Hang Em lights?

Matching colors are available for replacements and additions, so new tree lighting can use the same colors as your current display.

Tell us which parts you want to keep and which trees you want to add when you contact us about the next season.

What if lights in the branches go out?

Contact us about failed bulbs or loose lights. Our crew completes those repairs within 48 hours, weather permitting.

This maintenance is part of your seasonal service, including the lights we install in your trees and shrubs.

Do the lights stay on the trees all year?

We remove your Christmas lights after the holidays. Our goal is to finish takedowns by the end of January, though snow and ice can extend that into early February.

The lights belong to you. We repair them as needed and keep them in climate controlled storage until the next season.
