However, our newest addition is a different style of booth. It is more like the traditional photo booths you see at the State Fair. Smaller groups of people can get in and get their picture taken and just seconds later a photo strip appears. These aren't any photo strips however, they are double photo strips. So your guests can keep a strip and give a copy to you! Additionally, with our package, a guest book comes with for those photo strips to go in - with a personalized message of course.

Photo booths are a great activity and source of entertainment (other than dancing) for your guests. And with The Traveling Photo Booth you are getting your party favors and guest book as well.

As you can imagine, the photo booths are a hot commodity, so I recommend booking it as soon as you can. And as with any Bellagala service, you are going to get the best price out there. Call or email us today for date specific pricing and availability. Watch for more information on the web soon!]]> http://blog.bellagala.com/index.php?entry=entry080527-173008 No Author Tue, 27 May 2008 21:30:08 GMT http://blog.bellagala.com/comments.php?y=08&m=05&entry=entry080527-173008 http://blog.bellagala.com/index.php?entry=entry080514-163435

Hi Gretchen. I just wanted to tell you that Dan and I were so pleased with the job the Chris Dudy (and Amy) did at the wedding. They were fabulous. I can not wait to see all the pictures!! Chris did so well working with our large families. He made the picture taking seem easy!

We also thought that the DJ, DL was great. He got everyone dancing and did a wonderful job. He played from our list and incorporated requests when he could. He was wonderful and was very easy to work with.

The wedding was perfect, except for the weather, it poured all day and night, but not much you can do about that. I will send a picture or two when we get them.

Thanks again. I hear that Curt and Linda booked with you or are planning to. They were at our wedding and observed first hand.

Chris and Dan Janse

Phil & I wanted to write and THANK YOU for the wonderful time we had on our Wedding Day. Thank you for all of your help throughout the planning process. Your organization, thoughtfulness and sense of humor truly made the planning a blast!!!! Also we were so happy with the dj, Jessie. He did an outstanding job and truly made our guests dance their pants off!!!! The dance floor was full all night and he was perfect at meeting all of our guests needs. We knew you guys were outstanding, but to experience so much fun that night knocked our socks off. We would also like to write a letter to Jesse, if you are able to send us his last name so we can mail the letter to the Bellagala office that would be awesome. We have nothing but wonderful memories of our wedding day and thank you for making everything perfect. Have a great week and we will talk with you soon.

Hi Gretchen,

Hope today finds you well!

I just wanted to take a moment to tell you… WE LOVE, LOVE, LOVE OUR PHOTOGRAPHER, RANDI!

And I just had to let you know! Last week we had our Engagement session with her and had SO MUCH FUN! She is so kind and personable – and patient with me, too! I was a little timid at the start of the session but she made me feel so comfortable that by the end I was laughing, and playful and truly having fun with the whole thing!

We haven’t even gotten to the ceremony yet, but I’m so excited to see what comes!

Really, there’s no other reason for this email other than to just let you know that I’m so happy we chose Bellagala for our photography because we are so happy with the photographer we got through you.

Thank you soooo much!


Wendy
