The family photo in the photo booth

It always brings joy to my heart to see family pictures in the photo booth. Sure it's not the same as a professional photo with the whole family jumping in unison in front of beautiful fall colors. The family photo in the photo booth during a wedding is spontaneous, it is a lasting memory of one of the most important days that the family is sharing. The smiles are real, the energy is not staged and the memories are lasting.

I love it when I come across family photos from one of our photo booths on social media. Just yesterday, this great family photo came across my timeline. It was from a wedding that we were a part of nearly two years. The picture has important meaning and memories associated with it. It is a worth while feeling to be able to share so many lasting memories with so many great people.

Exciting news for couples getting engaged



The holiday season is upon us. There are many couples that will be getting engaged in the next few months. We have some exciting news about an event that is specifically for engaged couples getting married in 2014.


Some brides have mentioned that it is difficult to get their future grooms excited about planning the wedding and meeting vendors. We have thought of a fun idea to get brides and grooms excited about planning the wedding. Give Wings to Your Hearts will take place on February 21st at the Ifly in Ogden. It will be a great opportunity for engaged couples in Northern Utah to meet with top wedding professionals and to have a fun time in the sky diving simulator.

Our goal is to provide couples with valuable information and resources to successfully plan there wedding in a fun atmosphere. There will be food, prizes and high flying excitement. Online registration for the event will be posted in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for more details. We will be there there with one of our amazing photo booths.

Nevermind the fox. What does your wedding guest say?

Fads in pop culture come and go. There are some things that you want to remember forever. It is important to get professional wedding photos taken by a professional photographer. It is also nice to rent a photo booth and get photos of your guests being silly and having fun.

But what does your guest say?
Find out by renting one of our booths and utilize the shout out video feature. It is one of the major reasons to choose Catch Photo Booths for your wedding. After your guests photos are taken, they will be prompted by the photo booth attendant to leave you a short congratulations video. Many times the video is complete around the same time the photos are printed. We put all of the photos and videos on a thumb drive so you can have them to keep.

Incorporate your photo booth videos into your official wedding video.
We will gladly let your videographer copy the shout out videos from the photo booth, so they can include them into your official wedding video.

Since so many of you are singing the song, we have some new "What does the fox say" props that are super fun.

Tips for a Spectacular Sparkler Wedding Send Off




In the photo booth rental business, you see a lot fun and exciting wedding trends and ideas. One trend that is getting particularly popular is the sparkler wedding send off.

Here are some tips to make your sparkler send off fun and safe:

1. Use 36 inch long sparklers
Wedding sparklers usually come in lengths of 10, 20 or 36 inches. The 36 inch sparklers last for about 3 minutes. Their extra long length makes them a little safer and easier to handle than their shorter counter parts. The extra time that they burn will allow for you to do some fun and creative things with your sparklers.


2. Assign someone to coordinate the sparkler send off
Pick a responsible, preferably sober friend or family member to coordinate the wedding sparkler send off.

The sparkler send off coordinator will:
Get two helpers to assist in passing out the lit sparklers
Have the guests form two lines along the exit path
Light the sparklers in groups of 10-15
Go down the lines and pass out the sparklers
Have the guests put the spent sparkler sticks into a metal bucket

3. Use a propane torch to light the sparklers
You want to have all of the sparklers lit when you walk down the exit lane, right? Then the key is to light all the sparklers at the same time. The safest way to accomplish this is with a propane torch. Have helpers hold the sparklers in groups of 10-15. Light the ends of the sparklers with the propane torch.


4. Make sure the venue knows your plans
Your venue may have rules or policies that will need to be followed when performing the sparkler send off. We witnessed a sparkler send off at an upscale hotel. A few guests walked back into the hotel while their sparklers were still lit. Suddenly the fire alarm in the hotel began to sound. It is always best to be safe and respectful.

5. Think of a fun and creative picture with the sparklers
Some couples spell words with sparklers while their photographer takes a photo in long exposure mode before the official send off. Another fun idea is to pose and kiss under the lit sparklers. The night is yours, so do something fun and creative.

Being Remarkable - Carrie's Cakes


re·mark·a·ble  
adj.
1. Worthy of notice.
2. Attracting notice as being unusual or extraordinary.
 
You know when you see something remarkable. You can't wait to tell your friends. You get pictures by the remarkable thing. You post the pictures to Facebook and Twitter. The remarkable thing is embedded into your memory.
 
As wedding vendors, we try to be remarkable. We love it when the photo booth generates excitement at a wedding. We love it when guests are amazed that our booths record video for the bride and groom. We aim to provide a remarkable service at every event we attend.
 
Monday we participated in a wedding for a fabulous couple at Sundance resort. As soon as I saw the wedding cake arrive, I thought "now that's remarkable!" The cake was designed by Carrie of Carrie's Cakes. The bride gave her creative control to come up with something amazing. It was the talk of wedding. People were posing by the cake for pictures.
 
If you need a remarkable cake for a wedding or event, please visit Carrie at www.carriescakes.com or her Facebook page.
