We Set The Stage For Special Events

Theatrical Magic. Real World Joy.

JV Raymond Studio, LLC is a boutique design and fabrication studio based in the Washington, D.C. / Baltimore, MD metro area and led by James Raymond, a designer and fabricator holding a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Scenic & Set Design. While we are more than happy to partner with traditional full service event companies, we differ because we're specialists in creating memorable and unique environments for your events.

From the Stage to Your Celebration

Drawing on years of experience in professional theater, we apply the exact same rigor, precision, and artistry used in grand stage productions to your private events. We believe that an event isn't just a gathering, it is a narrative. By transforming ordinary spaces into immersive worlds, we ensure your guests don't just attend your event, they step inside a living piece of art.

Our Studio Capabilities Include:

• Custom Fabrication: Engineering and building unique, structural elements and scenic backdrops from the ground up.
• Bespoke Prop Creation: Designing thematic, period-accurate, or highly personalized props that tell your specific story.
• Immersive Lighting Plots: Sculpting the mood and directing focus using professional theatrical lighting techniques to elevate the atmosphere.

Whether we are constructing an entirely new environment or enhancing an existing venue, our mission is simple: to deliver a breathtaking visual experience that leaves a lasting impression.
