    Both Fall Decor and Christmas Lighting are highly seasonal services with limited installation availability.

    For Fall Decor:

    We recommend booking by late summer (July–August) to ensure the best selection of pumpkins, mums, and decor materials — especially for larger or custom porch designs. Prime installation dates in September and early October fill quickly.

    For Christmas Lighting:

    Our holiday lighting calendar typically begins filling in late summer and is often fully booked by October or early November.

    For best availability:

    • Book in August or September for custom or large-scale projects

    • Book no later than early October

    Members of the Mackenzie Club receive priority scheduling each year.

    If you want the best design flexibility and installation timing, securing your spot early is key.
