Photo Booths!

For the last several years, the popularity of photo booths have been on the rise. They are so much fun at a wedding reception for the guests, as well as the bride and groom.  Locally, I know of several DJs that have them - JAMM Entertainment, Feel the Beat, Total Entertainment, Amerson Events - and more I am sure.  Some photographers even supply them - Gresham Photography, The Foto Atelier - off the top of my head.  It gives the wedding guests something to do when the band takes a break or if they just need a break from dancing.  

But what I love more than photo booths are the PROPS!!!  Signs, chalkboards, mustaches, silly hats, yes, YES, please!

Here is fun wedding photo taken from The Wedding Chicks!  Photo credit goes to True Photography.

Abbie + Chris | The Sonnet House

I'm telling you - I am loving these afternoon weddings!  When you have a beautiful venue with a beautiful couple, you just can't go wrong.  Oh wait, add in fantastic photographers, and you really have it made!  Now of course, these screen shots can't compare to the Gresham's (Gresham Photography), but I hope that it will give you a glimpse into Abbie and Chris's wonderful wedding day!

A special thanks to Neillie Butler with Mairee Ami Wedding Planning on a job well done, Feel the Beat, Barb's Cakes, KG Designs and Kathy G Catering!  What a great team!

Lindsey + Jordan: American Village

Another beautiful Spring wedding day!  Lindsey and Jordan exchanged their wedding vows in front of their friends and family at the always gorgeous, American Village.  A naturally beautiful venue makes our job easier (don't tell anyone).  

 

Together with Brandon & Stacey Gresham with Gresham Photography, we captured the day perfectly.  Flowers were created by Carol Riley of Lillie's.

 

The couple ran for their honeymoon through bubbles and Auburn Shakers!  

Jim & LeeAnn: Canterbury UMC | Vestavia Hills Country Club

What a difference a week makes!  No rain, beautiful clouds, great day!  Jim and LeeAnn picked a beautiful March day to be married in an elegant black tie affair at Canterbury United Methodist Church.  We were delighted to work aside Brandon and Stacy Gresham of Gresham Photography.  Their images always look incredible.

 

Guests walked into the Vestavia Hills Country Club to romantic lanterns hung from everywhere they could be!  Rustic and old English!  I was right behind an excited LeeAnn when the club allowed her to sneak a peak of the ballroom before whisking the couple away for dinner.  Nationwide Coverage started the evening playing like they were a lounge jazz dinner ensemble.  Very classy.  I had not seen this side of them and was very impressed! Of course as the evening progressed, their energy level only increased and kept the guests on the dance floor for the entire (exhausting) night!!!   Nationwide Coverage entertained like no one else could have!!! (I have free demos if you are still looking for a band) 

 

It was a night to remember for all involved!  I can't wait to see the edited footage!

 

Caitlin + Jeffrey: Shades Mt. Baptist/B & A Warehouse

Caitlin and Jeff were married at Shades Mt. Baptist Church surrounded by all of their family and friends (and a beautiful arbor arrangement by Carol with Lillie's Flowers).  For their reception, Feel the Beat entertained the guests at B & A Warehouse.  

 

We got some amazing footage of a great wedding.  Everyone was having so much fun! It was also great working with fabulous photographers, Brandon and Stacey Gresham.  And we even saw a former bride and groom (Jennifer and Jordan Wilkes) at the wedding!  Fun times!!
