Photo Booth!

When Angela came to me and asked "Do you do photo booths?" my initial response was more of curiosity then an actual answer. Photo Booths are nostalgic, they're timeless and a hilarious addition to a wedding reception.

Hiring the actual booth from a vendor can run you up $1800, Eeek! There is a cheaper alternative, by half!

I have my own Photo Booth for Weddings. This is a unique and funny way to entertain your guests. You can choose from a variety of props and customise the prop table to include everything from a Yoda mask and Lightsaber to Rubber chickens and Bunny Ears.

The set up is simple, and only requires about 2m square at your venue. Your guests can choose from a table of props to get their giggle on and the camera clicks all night long with an unlimited number of photographs, so as your guests loosen up they can pop on into the booth and make sure you remember they were there!

You can decorate your booth, if you're having a luxurious wedding, a lush red curtain can be added as the background. If your wedding is a circus theme, then it can be set up like a "kissing booth". The options are only limited by your imagination.

Included in the photo booth package is the unlimited images on CD in both high resolution for print and low resolution for screen, so you can post them up on Facebook and email them overseas. You will also get a hard-cover coffee table book with a selection of the photos to have on display at home for your visitors have have a giggle at.

Chicken or Beef?

Your menu can be puzzling. It’s a part of your wedding you might not have really thought twice about. By the time you cross your budget with your guests dietary requirements you’re not left with much other than Chicken or Beef, boring! Don't despair there are plenty of alternatives.

McWedding Dinner

Your venue is going to play a huge part of this decision with some only offering you limited choices. Going off the beaten track with your reception venue will give you a bit of luxury in designing your menu. So, do you opt for hours d’oeuvres (finger food) or buffet, sit down meal or call for KFC? How do you choose? 

Well, what do you like for dinner?

If it’s your turn to host a dinner party, what would you cook? Would you whip out your Masterchef apron and get busy whipping up some fancy pants dish nobody can pronounce? Or would you order Domino’s?
Remember this is your wedding… yes you want to “please everyone” but guests will be much more delighted with a surprising Wedding Menu option then with a Chicken or Beef decision.

One way you can get around the menu is to do what Tonya and Darryl did, they hired an their favorite restaurant for their Reception, giving their guests the choice to order whatever they like. This also saved the B&G (bride and groom) big bucks in their budget as their guests paid for their own meals.

Pizza anyone?

You might screw up your face at the thought of watching your Grandmother shoveling a Ham and Pineapple slice into her mouth come 7 pm, but surely even she likes a good ol’ slice-o-pizza. So if it’s your ideal meal, then have it. Who doesn’t love pizza anyway!

Your venue costs will include a price-per-head for your guests which will include meals, so if the menu options are limited, bloody boring and uninspiring, then find something that you love. Knock the price per head down with your venue manager and hire a caterer that will cater (pardon the pun) to your wants!

If you’re sushi lovers, hire a sushi chef! If it’s all about the Circus then serve up corn dogs, popcorn and fairy floss! Get inspired, and let me know what you want for dinner at your wedding?
