Our on-site coordinators were greeted with a line of children ready to take pictures! And this was when they got there an hour before photobooth start time! They even asked us to stay later because the kids were having so much fun! We had our borders software turned on and they loved it! “I’m with stupid…” photostrips and “Wanted” posters are littering these kids’ rooms, we’re sure of it! Check out the fun they had!

We honestly feel that we lived up to what they asked and expected! These children were ecstatic for the photobooth! Most of them had seen it at the Swim and Dive Championships earlier in the week. There was already a line waiting when our on-site coordinators arrived an hour before we were supposed to start taking pictures! We had the borders part of our software turned on and the children enjoyed picking out their favorite borders for their photostrips. See how much fun they had!

Everyone at the Hilton President is always so nice to work with; they really work hard to make every event perfect! KC Photobooth is always glad to add to the fun of the event!

Ryan is a professional football player who is now playing for our very own Kansas City Chiefs! He’s a Kansas City native; he played for Shawnee Mission Northwest! Go Cougars! He met Jessica in high school; however, it wasn’t until they got reacquainted at their high school reunion that the romance started. And the rest is history…

Except that everything at the reception was brilliant and phenomenal! Jessica’s dress was amazing (we wish we knew where she go it)! There was a variety of specialty desserts as well as food provided throughout the entire night! To top everything off, they even surprised their guests with a Michael Jackson impersonator from 80sMichael.com!

The photobooth fit in perfectly as it added even more fun to the evening! Check out these great photostrips!

Congratulations, Jessica and Ryan!

They transformed the Grand Ballroom, a circular shaped room located in the center of the resort, using pink uplighting and tulle fabric draped from the edges of the room to the center above the dance floor.

Complete Music provided the musical entertainment, including karaoke for the guests later in the evening. Complete Video added to the reception when they showed a Same Day Edit of the ceremony midway through the reception. One of the highlights was the Sand Unity Ceremony that Josh chose for their ceremony.

The photobooth was a hit right from the get-go. Lacey had a box of props ready to go! There were hats, boas, animal noses, silly glasses, clown noses, and so much more! After an hour, it looked like a multi-colored chicken had exploded next to the photobooth from all the fun people were having with the boas! Check out all the fun they had in the photobooth!

Congratulations, Lacey and Josh!

This venue had very nice chandeliers throughout the room and houses a spacious dance floor! Nida noticed our green apple tablecloths when her and Jack were taking their large photostrip pictures; it turns out they were a great match for their colors! So we nixed our black tablecloths for her and graciously provided green apple linens for our photobooth tables.

Jack is a firefighter with the City of Shawnee Fire Department. He was recently interviewed by the Discovery Channel regarding how he saved a little boy’s life who had fallen through some ice. Our firefighters really do put their lives at risk to keep us safe! Nida has been accepted to the Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences and is planning on becoming an Emergency Room physician! Good luck, Nida! They’ve also been busy purchasing a new house!

Congratulations, Nida and Jack!

Their beautiful florals were done by 18 Flowers; our friends at Pro DJ KC provided the reception entertainment; and Covenant Cakes provided the cake!

Lindsay & Ryan requested our extended photobooth for their reception, and we were more than happy to oblige! We knew everything would be safe for the reception because there were Secret Service agents sweeping the building when we were delivering the photobooth. Apparently there was a town hall meeting earlier in the day. Perfect timing to ensure a safe wedding reception!

Congratulations, Lindsay and Ryan!

Before the ceremony even started, the couple decided to share with their guests, through a video, how they met, what kind of person they were looking for, and then thanked their guests for sharing their special day with them.

The reception was quite unique as well; the photobooth played a part in a secret. It was either the mother of the bride or groom (our on-site coordinators weren’t sure) that brought in a garden gnome to be included in every photostrip by the guests. However, it was a surprise for the bride and groom! They wouldn’t find out about it until they got back from their honeymoon! Believe it or not, the garden gnome made it into at least one picture on almost every single photostrip! Check the pictures out if you don’t believe me!

Congratulations, Katy and Ryan!

They couldn’t have had better weather on their big day! Although the forecast was calling for scorching heat, Mother Nature decided to cool it down just enough to be comfortable; good thing because the photobooth was on the front porch! The gorgeous ceremony took place in the orchard next to the barn with an a capella soloist providing the ceremony music. Then it was time for the reception!

Mellissa Garris from the City Market did an awesome job with the decor and florals! Gerber daisies appeared to be the favorite! Two Guys and a Grill was a unique alternative to on-site catering; the photobooth was set up close to their trailer, so we can vouch that the food they prepared was giving off some pretty good vapors. A definite good choice!

The reception was made all the more unique by the Irish Folk Trio. Everyone enjoyed the music, including a soloist who had taught herself the art of Irish Folk Dancing! This wedding was definitely a national-reaching event, as there were guests from Hawaii, Washington, Colorado, South Carolina, and so many other places!

And of course, as always, check out the great pictures that everyone took in the photobooth!

They had the photobooth and several video games for the kids to enjoy themselves when they weren’t competing. Boy, did they enjoy our new extended photobooth! It was perfect for the divers to hop into with their plaques or ribbons after they had finished competing! There was a long line of kids both days; they just couldn’t get enough!

We haven’t really used the “Borders” portion of our software before; this was a much welcomed addition! The kids LOVED picking out the border that they wanted before they got into the photobooth. The most popular borders were “Wanted” posters and “I’m with stupid…”. Adam, one of our on-site coordinators, enjoyed working with the kids both days, although he has been reassured that children are a ways off for him and his wife.

Pies were provided by Upper Crust, Sally Kuklenski did the flowers, and Celia Albon played the harp. After a brief interruption of rain, the reception went off without a hitch and much fun was had in the photobooth!

Congratulations, Alexis & Spencer!
