Can anyone recommend a gondolier or company that gives gondola rides after dark in September? Thank you.

Barb, I cannot recco any specifics but want to laud you for planning to do an after-dark ride--great idea, one we once did ourselves! Nocturnal atmosphere there is truly special. See also taking the very final vaporetto back from Burano at night in order to experience the same nightly wonder.
*You may want post the same question over on Fodors, plus the Italy travel sub-reddit. Also an email to the Venezia Tourism office would surely yield results. Might there also be a Gondolier Association to reach out to?
Tante belle cose.
I am done. The end.

I was in Venice a few weeks ago. The rates are posted on every gondola departure point. After 9pm the rates go up but it is clearly posted.
