Global Portraits: Part 1

Photo booths can often be a resemblance of a bride or groom’s special interests, and we’ve put together a three-part blog series to address just that. At Say Cheese, we can help complete your theme whether you were inspired during a recent jaunt across Europe or fell in love near a stand-out piece of architecture in your home town.

Paris: Ah, the City of Lights. Chic and trendy Parisians stroll the streets with tipped berets and cigarettes dangling from their lips, bakers churn out mouth-watering loaves of French bread from their bakeries and red wine is served ‘round the clock every day. If you’ve been romanced in the city or simply plan to visit one day in the future, there’s no reason you can’t have part of it here and now. Black berets, oversized wine glasses, fake moustaches and cardboard cutouts of famous landmarks like the Eiffel Tower will complete any Parisian ensemble! Want to get really creative? Go with a Marie Antoinette theme with giant Colloquial white wigs, oversized red lips, masquerade masks and ridiculous feathered hats. Parfait!

Venice: Another city full of love and promise, Venice is a popular honeymoon-destination for newlyweds and can be an equally effective inspiration for your photo booth. Put up a blown-up image of the watery canals as the background and provide props like straw-brimmed hats, large paddles (for steering the liquid streets, of course) and red and white-striped shirts or fabric for guests to imitate poses as a Gondolier!

The take down: Though we rent out the photo booths for five-hour time spans, this does not include the set-up and take-down of your event booth. Our experts arrive pre-party to make sure everything is ready to go and properly working; and we’ll remove the entire thing once your event time has expired. Partying hardy? No problem. Keep the photo booth for as long as you like at an additional charge of $100 per hour.

Skyscraper fun: So you like to have a view of the city. If your event is a little bit higher than the ground floor, it’s all okay. Our photo booths fit in most elevators, thus easily reaching your elevated destination of choice. If all else fails, we can provide you our booth measurements to ensure the doors will close when your press your floor’s button.

Picture magic: Guests young and old can easily manage our user-friendly photo booths. Once they’re seated (or accessorized or posed or whatever), they only need press the “OK” button for the camera to kick in. The booth will shoot four photos, each separated by five seconds. Before they can say “cheese” again, the images will be printed and available outside the booth!
