Traditional Photo Booth Rental in NYC

Traditional Photo Booth Rental in NYC

We recently set-up our classic vintage photo booth in NYC at the Standard High Line for a lovely Sweet 16.  One of the hippest hotels in Manhattan, the Standard High Line offers fantastic views of the Hudson River.  The hotel sits adjacent to The High Line, NYC’s only elevated park and by far, one of Manhattan’s most popular New York attractions.

The High Line NYC

The High Line was formally a rail track, which went out of use in 1980. The 1.45-mile-long strip was resurrected in 2009 and turned into one of the best NYC Parks, which runs from Hudson Yards to the northern edge of Chelsea.  Read more about the High Line here at Time Out New York.

At the Party

Our classic vintage photo booth in NYC fit perfectly with the decor at the Standard Hotel, matching the vintage New York theme.  Guests were in and out of our vintage photo booth all evening!  Great event space and perfect decor for our vintage classic photo booth!

Photo booth rental for wedding in Litchfield, CT

Everyone can’t always make it out for the wedding reception.  But with facetime and a little ingenuity, everyone can virtually attend.  This clever gent brought his significant other into the photo booth with him so the photo guestbook would be complete.  Clever man.  Great photo-strip!

Classic Photo Booth Rental Hoboken

Classic Photo Booth Rental Hoboken

We recently set-up our Classic Photo Booth in Hoboken, NJ for a winter event.  Had the opportunity to connect with my friends at All Who Wander Event Design, for a recent event in their beautiful space in Hoboken, NJ.  I met Nicole from All Who Wander Event Design at a wedding we worked on together at The 1896 Studios.  The 1896 Studio is a unique, edgy rental space in Brooklyn, New York.  We had the opportunity to work together on producing an intimate, vintage-style wedding with our classic photo booth, and decided to get together again to celebrate the end of the year!

Making Connections

At the party, I also had the opportunity to connect with friends at Dovetail Vintage Rentals, providing vintage & boutique rentals for weddings and other special events.  Enjoyed connecting with all these great vendors in the wedding industry and recommend them as excellent resources to anyone looking to plan an event!  Plus, they were all fans of our classic, vintage photo booth at the party!

Classic Photo Booth

One thing I asked each of these wedding professionals: what do you think makes our photo booth appealing?  For some, it was the quality of the photo.  Others, the simple design.  Lastly, the appeal of an enclosed photo booth as opposed to an open air booth.  Straight from wedding professionals themselves. Our Classic Photo Booth is still a hit for weddings and events.

VW Photo Bus Rental Montauk NY

One thing I enjoy most when attending events with Bella, our VW Photo Booth Bus, is the opportunity to chat with fellow Volkswagen lovers.  Guests regularly share memories of owning a VW Micro Bus and all the stories with it.  I recently attended a wedding at the beautiful Montauk Yacht Club (http://www.montaukyachtclub.com/).  On this crisp, Autumn evening, I spoke with multiple wedding guests about their memories of camping, family trips, memorable childhood experiences, all in their families VW Bus.  It was amazing to hear all the different stories associated with this simple vehicle.

VW Bus as the Ultimate Adventure Van

I recently read this article about the VW Bus as the ultimate adventure van.  For some, the VW Bus captures a spirit of freedom.  Others, adventure.  And others, simplicity and joy.  The VW Bus itself is versatile, yet simple.  Even today, people are searching high and low to purchase and restore one of these vans.

Making new memories at the Wedding

At the wedding, guests simply loved jumping into Bella and posing for their photo booth photos.  I also heard numerous comments about seeing a working VW Bus still on the road.  These sorts of conversations happen regularly at events.  It’s wonderful to see how stepping into the Volkswagen and posing for photo booth photos brings back such memories. It’s fortunate that we can capture those smiles in the back seat.  Of course, the bride and groom at this particular event, was already having a wonderful evening dancing, mingling, and joining their friends in our VW Photo Booth Bus.  Guests loved packing into the back seat two take photo booth photos as well.  The beautiful views in Montauk, a picturesque Autumn evening, and the fun atmosphere made this one of the most memorable Fall weddings we’ve done in years.

Volkswagen Photo Bus Rental in Southampton, NY

Bella, our vintage Volkswagen Photo Bus, recently attended a private wedding on Long Island.  We showed up, parked her right in the front of the house during the ceremony, and waited for the bride and groom to complete their vows.  See photo below.

Antique Car Lovers and our Volkswagen Bus

Turns out, the guest list included tons of old antique car lovers who spent most of the evening chit chatting with me about their next restoration project.  They loved looking inside the restored engine of our VW Bus, admiring the traditional German engineering, and finally, taking some photos in the bus!  I spoke with one couple from North Carolina currently in the market for a VW Camper Bus to find and restore for their family camping trips.  We shared notes on the different challenges of finding a VW Bus and I directed them to a few helpful resources.  Another opportunity to build a meaningful connection and encourage people to follow their dreams!

Photo Booth Fun

The bride and groom were thrilled to see our Volkswagen Photo Bus drive into the backyard as soon as they completed their ceremony.  They had no idea we were coming for their wedding reception (a gift from one of their close friends) and we spent the rest of the evening taking photos in and with Bella.  A lovely evening with our classic VW Bus on Long Island!
