The Caravan Photo Booth has landed

Caravan Photo Booth

Wow, I can’t believe how long it’s been since I’ve had the time to sit down and write a blog for the site.  For the past couple of months I’ve just been inundated with sorting out and finishing our caravan photo booth – and even if I say so myself I think it looks amazing!  The quirky caravan booth finally got finished around mid-September as we took it to a couple of wedding fayres – one at Bridge House Barn in Leicestershire (Kibworth), one at The Granary at Fawsley, one at the the Leicester Marriott, one at Wicksteed Park and finally one at Wollaton Hall……..so just a few then!

It’s been an absolute pleasure to attend these wedding fayres with the caravan photo booth and the reaction from brides and grooms has been amazing – everyone seems to want the caravan at their wedding because it’s just so different and quirky.  We’ve also really been in the swing with wedding bookings for our vintage booth this summer too – it’s been a lovely year with us working for some lovely people.

For those interested I’ll give you a quick summary of what’s gone on with the vintage caravan.  The caravan was bought back in April 2014 with a view to modifying it slightly to accommodate one of our vintage photo booths.

At the start of the summer I started work, all of the furniture got ripped out leaving a blank space inside.  I sat back and had a think to myself – the walls were all pock-marked with holes from where the furniture was screwed in place an so on, so I decided to then remove the walls…….and subsequently the floor (‘minor’ modifications….remember!!).  The outside got the same treatment with all of the aluminium trim coming off followed by a good sanding and a respray.

After that work got started on the inside putting in custom-built furniture, walls and ceiling – all built to specification with the aim of housing a photo booth.  Finally in the second week of September I finished sewing the last of the curtains, fixing the last new window in place and finalised the decorative touches for the inside – what a job!  I did thoroughly enjoy the process and having done everything myself it’s been an incredibly satisfying job and immensely gratifying to see the finished product.

By the way, our daughter (cheekily poking her head through the door in photo#3 doesn’t come included…….although for a small extra fee………!!

Booking the quirky caravan photo booth

Hopefully you like our ‘new’ vintage caravan photo booth, we’re really pleased to be adding it to the collection alongside the rest of our wedding photo booths – and we’ve had quite a few bookings for it already, it really does have to be seen to be believed.  Now though I can take a breather and a take a little time off over the winter, personally I think I’ve deserved it 😉

Don’t forget – if you’d like to enquire about the vintage caravan photobooth please do get in touch as it’s proving very popular and with there being only one of them (at the moment….!) it’s strictly first come, first served.

It’s worth noting by the way that unlike many other wedding photo booths we’ve come across, our caravan (and the rest of our booths!) is fully self-contained meaning there’s no additional photographer taking the photos – as you can see on the left hand side of photo#2 above the camera, laptop, monitor and printer are all housed in a discreet package – so all your guests need to do is choose some silly props, push the button and smile at the camera.  Their photo is then ready and pops out of the side within about 15s of the last photo being taken – no ugly flashes, tripod stands or overbearing photographers to worry about here!
