DIY Wedding Photo Booth
I can’t remember if I told you about our DIY wedding photo booth. Actually, I know I haven’t told you because my sister reminds me about it quite often….Thanks Rach!
After getting engaged I went to my first-ever Bridal Expo! It was so overwhelming….But, nonetheless I walked out of there knowing I wanted a photo booth at our reception. Well, come to find out…photo booths are freaking expensive!! And then I fell upon the following pictures and knew that a custom photo booth was the answer.
Having a photo booth at our wedding reception is going to be a fun way to get guests to interact with each other. And since there was no room in our budget we had to “do it ourselves”. I bribed…errr, I mean begged my brother in law to help me and we (he) was able to bust out this project in one afternoon.
We simply purchased a piece of plywood and made a freestanding wall to be used as the photo booth. It will be covered in Damask fabric and the frames will then be (re)attached. Voila….
A big thank you to my sister, brother in law, brother and nephew for assisting with this project….I think it’s going to be my favorite part of the wedding 
Engagement Pics
After 17 months we finally got some engagement pictures taken. The weather was horrible as Michigan got hit with another major snow storm on Friday night, so that put a little kink in our plans, but I still think they turned out totally awesome. Here is a sneak preview….
As you can tell, the dog was much more cooperative then the cats….It was so much fun. And I’m so impressed with the Mister. He hates his picture being taken but he did really well. He even impressed himself! I think he feels better about our wedding pictures now. He has been so stressed about being in front of a camera.
Thanks again Rachel….the pics are awesome and you are awesome!!
I’m bitter….What are you?
You Are Bitter
You aren’t bitter at the world, even though you have a strong personality. Instead, you are sophisticated and cultured. You appreciate acquired tastes.You are very powerful. You have the ability to change a room’s energy.While some may find you disagreeable, your points of view are intelligent and interesting.
