Bring your Wildwood home to life after dark.
Wildwood is the largest suburb of St. Louis — about 35,000 residents spread across one of the most naturally beautiful service areas in the region. Located along old Route 66 and connected to Eureka, Ballwin, and Chesterfield via Manchester Road, Wildwood has retained more of its natural character than almost any other St. Louis suburb. More than 34 miles of trails, large wooded lots, rural-suburban character, and what’s often described as more horses per capita than anywhere else in the metro.
What makes Wildwood such a rewarding place to design landscape lighting is the lot scale and natural setting. Properties here often have 1.5 acres or more, with mature trees, natural topography, and substantial setbacks from the road. That means lighting has room to breathe — uplights can be more dramatic, pathway runs can be longer, and the surrounding landscape becomes part of the lighting composition rather than a backdrop.
Wildwood’s housing stock ranges from traditional 2-story brick homes to striking contemporary designs by local architects. Some Wildwood properties feature passive solar design, earth-sheltered construction, and houses that blend so completely with the natural surroundings that lighting becomes part of how the home reveals itself at night. We design carefully for that — using warm color temperatures, hidden fixtures, and effects like moonlighting that bring out the home and the woodland without flooding them.
Whether you’re in Lake Chesterfield (the Harbors development), along Old State Road, off Chimney Top Farm Road, or anywhere in Wildwood’s wooded streets, we’d love to walk your property and design something that fits the scale and character.
Here’s what we design and install across the area:
Wildwood driveways and approach paths regularly run hundreds of feet through wooded terrain, making pathway lighting one of the largest design elements on most projects.
Wooded lots create exceptional backdrop conditions for facade lighting and specimen tree uplighting — the surrounding canopy becomes part of the design.
Large outdoor living spaces on these properties support substantial deck and patio installations, often paired with outdoor kitchens or pool areas.
Wildwood projects are characterized by scale — multi-acre lots, long wire runs, multiple transformer locations, and substantial tree uplighting opportunities. Properties near the state parks have particularly distinctive wooded character that informs design choices. Installation logistics are more involved than typical suburban work (longer trenching runs, equipment access considerations), but the design canvas justifies the additional planning.
Wildwood lots often have 1.5+ acres with substantial wooded areas. That gives us real design freedom — uplighting on mature trees, moonlighting from high canopies, accent lighting on landscape features, and pathway lighting that can extend across the full approach to the home. We design each project around the specific topography and tree cover.
Many Wildwood homes are striking contemporary designs — passive solar, earth-sheltered, architecturally distinctive. These houses often have unconventional lighting needs. We design fixtures placements that respect the architectural intent rather than fighting it, using subtle accent lighting and integrated solutions.
Wildwood residents chose the city for its trails, woodland, and natural feel. Our designs respect that — warm color temperatures rather than harsh white, hidden fixtures rather than visible commercial-looking ones, and lighting that complements the natural setting rather than imposing on it.
Many Wildwood homes have long driveways through wooded approaches. Pathway and driveway lighting becomes both functional (safety after dark) and aesthetic (creating a sense of arrival). We design driveway runs that guide guests in without overwhelming the natural beauty of the approach.
Why Wildwood homeowners choose us for their wooded lots and naturalistic settings
Wildwood's larger lot scale gives us real design freedom. Longer pathway runs, more dramatic uplighting, moonlighting from high in mature canopies — effects that would feel cramped on a smaller lot become the centerpiece of a Wildwood design.

Many Wildwood homes are striking contemporary designs — passive solar, earth-sheltered, architecturally unique. These houses ask for unconventional lighting approaches. We adapt to whatever the home is doing rather than applying a template.
Wildwood homes often have long, wooded driveway approaches. We design lighting that guides guests in without overwhelming the natural beauty — pathway runs that fit the topography, accent lighting on flanking trees, and a real sense of arrival.
Multi-acre wooded lots take longer to walk, longer to design, and longer to install. We don't rush. The result is lighting that genuinely fits the property — not lighting forced through a tight schedule.
Posted on Google Richard VoytasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt and his team delivered. Our house looks amazing. The work was fairly priced and the materials and workmanship were excellent. We actually rehired them again for even more lighting features.Posted on Google Bradley FisherTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently hired Landscape Lighting Guys to help with my home lighting system, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I first met Matt while he was preparing a proposal for a large lighting project in our subdivision’s common areas. He took the time to meet with us multiple times, answer questions, and walk through the details of the project. During those meetings, I also had him take a look at my home’s landscape lighting system. Over the years, I had several different companies work on my lighting, and after some recent landscaping work, some wires were cut and pulled out, and fixtures were pulled out of their proper location. My system needed to be reset and repaired. Matt provided a beyond fair and detailed proposal, and his crew got right to work. What impressed me most was that they weren’t interested in taking shortcuts. Tyler and George explained that they could simply reconnect some of the old wiring, but they weren’t comfortable doing that because they couldn’t guarantee the long-term results. Instead, they took the time to trace the system, replace wiring where needed, and correct several issues left behind from previous installations. It was obvious they cared about doing the job correctly rather than just getting it done. The end result is actually better than what I had before. A few simple adjustments to fixture placement and aiming made a huge difference in how the house and landscaping are illuminated at night. The attention to detail was outstanding. Tyler and George were also incredibly professional and friendly throughout the entire process. They cleaned up after themselves, polished the fixtures, answered questions, and treated my property like it was their own. That level of service is hard to find these days. I’m also excited that Matt offers maintenance and service plans. One of the biggest challenges with landscape lighting is finding someone who understands your system and can maintain it properly over time. It’s reassuring to know I now have a trusted company that can keep everything looking great for years to come. If you’re looking for a company that values quality, professionalism, and long-term customer relationships, I highly recommend Matt, Tyler, George, and the entire team at Landscape Lighting Guys.Posted on Google Jeff BerzonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We met Matt many years ago when his business was young. His professionalism and dedications were matched by his crew. Years later we used his Company again, after we moved. We were just as impressed. Their suggestions, especially the Bistro Lights over the patio, were spot on. Another great job, And another round of compliments from our neighbors!Posted on Google Sue AckleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did quite a bit of talking with several lighting companies in the beginning. Some didn’t show up for an appointment, one didn’t call back when I asked to make some changes to the bid, so I looked for someone who was honest, had integrity, and listened to what I wanted, but had great ideas as well. The Lighten guys fit the bill perfectly. My house lighten was done in the winter, but I knew I would like to add to it as soon as my garden was in full bloom. Matt came out today and again I was so pleased with his ideas! It’s going to be perfect! Thanks bunches Matt!

They performed high quality work that they stand behind. I highly recommend them!Posted on Google Julie BuckTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt and his team originally designed and installed our landscape lights in 2021. We were thrilled with his expertise on placement of the lights. The end result turned out great. We still get compliments on our lighting. My favorite part is the yearly check and fix of any issues. His team cleans, checks and repairs lights, wires or any other issue each year. Hassle free for us. Highly recommend this company.Posted on Google Ben LloydTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Huge shout out for the entire team at LLG. I can't recommend them enough. The estimating was simple and clear, pricing was fair and competitive.. and I was blown away with the finished product! Whenever my wife comes home with the kids after baseball practice, she always makes the comment how safe she feels and how lit up our house looks! LLG completely changed the dynamic of my home. THANK YOU!!Posted on Google David KannapelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt and the team couldn't have been better to work with. They were able to get us quoted, installed, and supported very quickly and professionally. In addition to the hardware and lights looking great, the professionalism has been above and beyond. Would highly recommend!Posted on Google Timothy RohlmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our lights were installed at least 10 years ago and worked fine except we had some trees removed and some were damaged. Those 3 were replaced and all the others (32) were serviced, cleaned and new bulbs. Excellent work thank you.Posted on Google Coco BloomfieldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Prompt, excellent service! So nice to deal with.
