Since our inception, we have been dedicated to providing an innovative and memorable holiday experience that goes beyond traditional decorations.

Lighting Up Christmas as a Family Business

Lit Christmas Trees traces it’s roots back 20 years as an innovative solution to a simple problem. Bill Reilly wanted an illuminated Christmas tree in his front yard, but he didn’t want the typical boring teepee of lights. He wanted something that looked like a tree with real limbs. An engineer by trade, he kept tinkering until had assembled a 12-foot tree and strung it with lights.

“I thought it looked kind of neat,” Bill said. But he knew his solution was a winner when his wife came home.

“That looks great!” she exclaimed.

“She has very high standards and impeccable taste so, I thought wow, I need to keep working on this.”

Since then Bill has continued to refine the Trees, adding different sizes, multiple color options and actually received a Patent for his unique design. Bill’s Trees have grown to be a staple of the Central Fl Christmas scene with over 300 trees in the small town of Ocala alone.
