Posted by Taranaki, in Events, Photo Booth, Taranaki, Tips

As lots of you are getting ready for Christmas spending hours hoping to be on Santa’s nice list, for lots of us all we can think about is WEDDING SEASON!

Wedding season is kicking off right about now and what an exciting time it is! We all know every wedding NEEDS a Photo Booth Fun photo booth to inject some extra fun into your big day…but what about all the other big decisions?? Well we are here to help by recommending some AMAZING businesses that the Taranaki team work alongside throughout wedding season…

If you are planning a wedding, you will want to check these guys out!!

First up is Capture You Wedding Cinema

AMAZING doesn’t even cover it – the Capture You team really are the best of the best, you can check out some of their work here: https://www.facebook.com/CaptureYou/?fref=ts and we warn you to have a box of tissues handy – so many feels!

Next on our list of must have vendors is Dobson’s Marquee and Party Hire

If you are planning on an incredible wedding, you better get in touch with the Dobson’s team! Marquees to flowers and everything in between they will make it happen all while insuring your wedding is perfect for you! Have a look through their galleries here http://www.dobsons.co.nz/style-gallery/ there are some seriously amazing set ups!

No wedding can go ahead without a Celebrant and we happen to know the best, Sam from Full Circle.

Sam delivers tailor-made marriage ceremonies that are truly stunning! Sam is also an amazing MC so if you would like your day to run smoothly you need to check out his brand-new website here: http://www.fullcirclecelebrant.co.nz Sam really is an awesome guy and we couldn’t be prouder to work along side him.

Our next absolute must have is DMan Entertainment!

Our photo booths are often seen alongside these guys next to the dance floor and what a winning combination it is! DMan Entertainment are professional, fun and did we mention AMAZING?! Dinnie and his team will make any wedding into The Wedding of the Year and you just must have them! Trust us when we say DMan entertainment is the best!! https://www.facebook.com/dmanentertainment/?fref=ts

You will need a dress right? Or the bride will! And we have two of the very best here in New Plymouth!

Liah’s gowns are truly stunning and will make any bride look and feel incredibly beautiful on their big day. Words don’t do it justice so check out the beauty here: http://liahroebuck.co.nz

Their gowns are the very best quality, created with love and attention to ensure each bride feels special and stunning.

Another top priority for any planning bride and groom is of course the venue!

Novotel have the perfect space for you wedding reception, and stunning accommodation for you and your guests! It is a lovely place to be for a wedding or as part of honeymoon for those of you who live outside of New Plymouth! http://www.hobsonhotel.co.nz/

To prop or not to prop?!??

Posted by Taranaki, in Awards, Corporate, Events, Marketing

Here at Photo Booth Fun we see many things… we see many people laughing, many people planning the perfect pose,  many people giggling as they retrieve their photo strip – all and all we see a lot of people having fun! Part of that fun is deciding on which prop to where – there are so many choices, which one sums up you? which one is good for the laughs? which one is just the cutest? and then there is the question that often follows the complex prop decision ….do we even prop?

Truth is our booths are fun however you approach them, sometimes its nice to hide behind a prop …sometimes it is fun to go all out and crazy with the props and sometimes it is cool to just be you!

One of our Taranaki Managers Jordan and Operator Tess will now demonstrate a few proping options….

First up we have ‘The Prop’ classically done …. Jordan even has 2 props (FYI you can never have too many props)…

Photo Booth Fun Props

 

Nest up we have’The Half Prop’ this is great if you are not truly ready to commit to the full prop seen above, just grab one thing and you are away laughing…

half-prop

And finally we have ‘The No Prop’ … here there are no props in action but as you can see Tess and Jordan don’t need a prop when they can pull classic photo booth facials like these…

Photo Booth Fun NZ

So there you have it! It really doesn’t matter if you prop it or don’t prop it – it’s all about having fun and with Photo Booth Fun at your event that is exactly what you will do!

Call us today to get us along to your next event – you won’t regret it we promise xx

We WON! We actually flaming won!

You may remember seeing a post back in April when we found out we had been nominated for a Taranaki Wedding Industry Award – we were so excited to have been nominated! We were up against some AMAZING businesses who we love to work alongside at events…we would have been so happy for them to win, there really were so many deserving businesses.

The awards night rolled about and the Taranaki team headed out to the event (with the booth of course). Taranaki Weddings had put on a spectacular evening and the team were having a ball! The time came to read out the nominations and as the name “Photo Booth Fun” was read out and displayed on screen the team was so proud to have been included….there was a pause and then… “and the winner of the Entertainment category is…. PHOTO BOOTH FUN”

“Oh my gosh – that’s us”

“eeeeek we won, far out”

“did you write a speech? – noooo”

“lets get up there”

What a feeling it was to walk on stage and accept the award – so THANK YOU wonderful, beautiful, crazy and fun clients!

Thank-you for nominating us, thank-you for voting for us and THANK YOU for having us as part of your event! We truly appreciate that you pick us to be there and we REALLY do love our job!

The Taranaki Team xx

Our Classic Kiwi Summer

Posted by Taranaki, in Events, Marketing, Photo Booth, Taranaki

It sure has been hot lately, the perfect kiwi summer…and what do us kiwi’s do every summer – we head to the beach!

We have found the perfect way to spend our summer and we think you will agree it ticks all the boxes! Imagine a place where you can relax and enjoy delicious food and live music while wondering through stalls of some incredibly talented people selling beautiful products all on the water’s edge – sounds unreal doesn’t it?? Turns out this amazing place exists right here in New Plymouth. We have been spending our kiwi summer at the beach with our wonderful photo booth thanks to The Seaside Market – it really is a fantastic event with the best summer vibes. You should totally check it out here:  The Seaside Market

See our photo booths really can be set up just about anywhere, even the beach is no problem at all. We love taking our booths to different and exciting locations so if you have an idea for a venue no matter how crazy then let us know and I’m sure we can figure out a way to get Photo Booth Fun there for some good times!

Can you say CHRISTMAS!!!

0 Comments

Posted by Taranaki, in Photo Booth

I decided to pop into town yesterday for a quick 5 minute job…. An hour later I was home…. Can anyone say CHRISTMAS??

Yes the silly season has hit town with shoppers getting all crazy, kids screaming for Santa photos and that oh so catchy Christmas music playing in the shops and did I mention it is only 21 sleeps until the big day!!! And as always we have a lot of booth gigs to pack into those 21 days – and the truth is we are pretty excited about the whole thing!

We can’t make any promises but we might still be able to fit your booking in with a bit of flexibility, so you can still call us for the silly season…. This is the woman who hasn’t started Christmas shopping (or even written a list) I know all about leaving everything to the last minute at this time of year! – I am still sitting here trying to understand where the last year went … I’m sure it was only Christmas a couple of months ago wasn’t it!

Yay for Christmas, Yay for photo booths and YAY for fun! Love, love, LOVE this time of year as crazy as it may be!

Wahooooo bring on the 25th!!

It is that time of year!

If your house is like my house then you are probably well into the Christmas countdown! While I am still trying to figure out where exactly the last 10 months have gone I find myself saying “be nice to your sister – you know Santa’s elves are heading out soon to keep watch” all too often, and answering all toy requests with “put it in your letter to Santa and see what happens”. Christmas stores seem to be popping up in places I didn’t even know existed and that catchy Christmas music has started in the background of radio adverts… what does all this mean? It is a fairly good indication that one of my favourite times of the year is upon us… end of year work function time!!

That amazing time of year when you get to let your hair down knowing that a Christmas break is so close you can almost touch it…and what are the vital ingredients for a successful work function? Good food, Good drink, good entertainment AND a good photo booth! That is where Photo Booth Fun come in and we can’t wait!

 

So be like these 2 at your work function…

Because nobody wants to be like this guy….

No photo booth

If for some silly reason you haven’t locked us in for you work do then give us a call today and we will try and squeeze you in!

The Wedding Gift NZ & Giving something back

0 Comments

Posted by Taranaki, in Events, Marketing, Taranaki, Weddings

I don’t think many of us can even begin to imagine how earth shattering getting news that our lives will end sooner than we ever thought could ever be, it isn’t something that we like to think about…. But just for a moment imagine you have just been given a limited time to live…. I think at that point most of us would begin to write a list of things that we wanted to check off while we still could. For some people one of the most important things on that list could be to marry the one they love. Now imagine that getting married is on your bucket list but you simply don’t have the time, or the knowledge or possibly the funds to achieve that big day? Heart-breaking! Well there is a new organisation in town and it is set to make all the difference – a caring, selfless non-profit organisation to help those who are terminally ill to achieve their wedding dreams and Photo Booth Fun are right there with them.

The Wedding Gift NZ is a non-profit organisation providing/planning wedding ceremonies and celebrations for people with life threatening or terminal illnesses in Taranaki. (Although in time, the aim is you reach far more than just Taranaki)

Services are provided by local business without prejudice or agenda for the simple purpose of sharing love and providing lasting memories.

I’m sure at this point you wonderful Taranaki people are wondering what you can do to help with this amazing new venture – well the good news is they have their first fundraising event coming up soon. It will be an amazing day and all event information can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1507214549571504/ Please take the time to have a look or contact Louise at info@theweddinggiftnz.com if you have any questions or simply want to help.

Photo Booth Fun are very proud to be helping with such a wonderful event and we would love to see you there.

Backdrop love – making it your own

0 Comments

Posted by Taranaki, in Corporate, Events, Photo Booth, School Balls

We love the fact that our photo booths have a curtain that you can hide behind and get all crazy… but the fun doesn’t have to stop there!

For the more adventurous posers out there the curtain can be flung back to reveal all – posing with an audience can be just as fun! While a blank wall can be nice, a bit of DIY can take you booth experience up a notch – if you can fancy up the wall behind you or even find a fun and interesting wall you can give your guests the option to stay behind the curtain or have photos with a unique back drop or both!  – You can even add something to the existing curtain to make it your own – like Sam did for his Indian themed 50th, goodbye black curtain and hello blue sari.

On one of our all time faves…. Rosie sure knows how to make a stunning backdrop

IMG_0203

 

This idea really got us thinking so off we went to search for some fun and different ideas that could inspire a curtain alternative …. remember you can keep the curtain on while still having a fabulous background on standby … we love what we found….have a look at these beauties and let your imagination go, we would love to see what you come up with!
