Double (not a) Trouble

I am loving the idea of utilizing certain aspects of the decorations to serve more than one purpose. Flower arrangements during ceremony can easily be placed in the reception area once pictures are over. Bridal and bridesmaid's bouquets as head table centerpieces. Stuff like that!!!

Our recent decision also utilizes this principal. While signatures in a book are so lovely, oh wait. Does anyone even know where their guest book is? I don't think 60 years down the road I will care who signed a book stuffed in my attic. I will however love to see everyone's pics in their wedding glory. I am copying (yes I didn't think of this on my own) an idea from my MOH's (maid of honor) wedding. (I know that should make her a matron but I don't like the word matron)
Betsy used a digital camera and some helpful friends to take photos of everyone as they walked into the reception. Much to my dismay, I was sun burnt from head to toe and didn't look the best. Which will be something for Betsy to laugh at years later, right? Dan and I are gonna go even a minor step further. For not too much extra money we will be having a photo booth (collective applause please).

WARNING!!!!! Every guest will be asked to use the booth once for the "guest book". You have been fore warned.

This will also allow us to have an alternative to all night dancing, give our guests some more entertainment during cocktail hour, and hopefully get some amazing and fun pics. I know I'll be using it. The best part is our guest keep a copy of the photos and we get one copy. Everyone wins and can I smell another use for the photo booth. Oh yeah those ever important favors we give to our guest. However if you RSVP with in the next 6 months we'll throw in a free gift. All you have to do is show up. Hehe

Oh wait... hmmm out of more incentives for now. Keep reading!!!
