Alain’s 40th Birthday Party at Vine Restaurant in Basking Ridge, NJ
We were fortunate enough to be able to provide entertainment for Alain’s 40th Birthday Party this past weekend and this was one of those parties that reminds me of why I love what I do and why I do it. More after the break!
What’s the Best First Dance Song of 2012?
We’re calling it right now. “I Won’t Give Up” by Jason Mraz is going to be 2012′s hottest first dance song for weddings. I’m not going to say anything about it. Just listen.

Things You Should Ask Your NJ Photo Booth Vendors
Things you should ask your NJ PhotoBooth Vendors:
- Ask about sizing and dimensions, and then compare it to your reception hall space. It would be terrible to order a photo-booth, and have the vendor arrive with nowhere to set up! Along with size and dimensions, it is a good idea to ask to see a picture of the photo-booth. There are some very non professional companies out there that could show up to your elegant wedding reception with a total eye sore….we don’t want that!
- Ask about what kind of camera and printer they are going to be using. Not all Photo-booth vendors will have top of the line equipment, and having subpar photo-booth equipment will ultimately leave you with subpar pictures. It is especially important to ask about the print quality, how fast the printer can print (The whole excitement value of a photo-booth is that it’s INSTANT!) Premium Entertainment, for example, uses professional printers that kick out your prints in 5 seconds. Pretty slick!
- Ask if they will be providing you with some sort of access to the pictures after your wedding. Some common forms are CD’s, Flash Drives, Internet sites, etc. At most of the photo-booth weddings I have been to the bride and groom have had at least some opportunity during their busy reception to have fun with the photo-booth, but nothing is more fun than getting to sit down with your new spouse and look at all the hilarious photos that were taken of the guests!
Photo Booth Rentals in NJ (New Jersey)
There are so many entertainment options available out there for weddings and it can get pretty overwhelming to pick one, especially if you’ve never had firsthand experience with them. Personally, I have had the most fun at weddings that had a photobooth. Now that we are living in a more digital, instant era, disposable cameras on every table are no longer a convenient (or fun, let’s be honest) way of letting your guests play photographer.
We have access to instantly take and view pictures on our PHONES…nobody really wants to have to wait to see how funny a picture came out! Photo-booths are definitely the new, cool, and incredibly entertaining way of letting your wedding guests create your memories. A lot of companies will even offer the guests novelty frames, funny accessories to wear, and unlimited prints! It’s a terrific way to entertain your guests, create memories, and just give people a creative way to show off their silly sides! Before choosing a vendor (and of course, there are going to be hundreds) you must know what you need to ask them.
We will be providing a post in the near future with questions to ask your Photo Booth vendors. Stay tuned!
