Deciduous trees
Branch wrap trees
Every trunk and main branch wrapped tight in mini lights, so the bare winter shape of the tree glows. Trunk-only wraps are a cleaner, simpler option.

Tall, narrow trees
Columnar trees

Lots of trees? Trunk wraps.
On a property with lots of trees, wrapping every one in full adds up quickly. Trunk wraps light just the trunks, in a mix of colours, for pops of colour right across a big lot: down a long driveway, along a tree line or through the yard.
Quoted from a photo of your tree, like all our tree lighting. Tell us roughly how many trees, and send a photo.
Trim first? Our ISA-certified arborist can shape your trees before we light them.
Steady glow, or twinkle
Our professional 5 mm contractor-grade mini lights come in a steady glow or with a twinkle option for a little extra magic.
Tree lighting questions
Which wrap suits my tree?
It depends on the tree. Deciduous trees get a branch wrap (every trunk and main branch wrapped) or a globe wrap (the canopy lit as a rounded globe). Tall, narrow columnar trees are wrapped from the base to the top. Evergreens like spruce and pine are wrapped base to tip, like a classic Christmas tree. We'll recommend the best style when we assess your trees.
What's the difference between a branch wrap and a globe wrap?
A branch wrap follows the tree's structure: the trunk and every main branch are wrapped tight in mini lights, so the bare winter shape of the tree glows. A globe wrap lights the canopy as a full, rounded globe of light. Both suit deciduous trees, and we'll tell you which suits yours.
How are tree wraps priced?
Trees are quoted from a photo of your tree, because every tree is a different size and shape. Send one of each tree with someone standing next to it for scale when you ask for your quote.
How tall a tree can you wrap?
Most front-yard trees are straightforward. For very tall trees, the Elves review your photos and plan safe access before your final quote.
What lights do you use on trees?
Professional 5 mm contractor-grade mini lights, in a steady glow or with a twinkle option.
