This is an easy one!! I went to a wedding where Paul Walker was a guest of a guest. My dad took a pic of me with Paul, I was so excited but never actually got to see how it turned out. I still wonder!!
I think the most fav pic I’ve ever taken was at the wedding of one of my best friends. Another bridesmaid and I were taking a pic of ourselves and, after we looked at it, you could see the bride and groom kissing in the background for their photographer. It was like we meant to do it!
What a great giveaway!
I have yet to use a single use camera at a wedding but yay for film making a comeback!
None of my friends have had single use cameras at their weddings- I’d be a first!
My little sister covering her ears as the groom belted out a song to his bride.
The bride and groom leaving the church with rice being thrown in the background
These would go perfect with our wedding theme!
I don’t have a specific fav pic, but I remember how great it was to have one at each table pre-digicam days
Of my aunt’s centerpiece catching fire!
I was at a wedding where they had the cameras out for the guests. I kept watching some kids run by chasing each other and taking pictures of the ground and/or the kid running in fronts butt. I hope they went to a cheap place to get all those developed.
First dance of the bride & groom!
I would have to say cutting the cake. I got a better one than the photographer!!
At every wedding my friends from high school and I go to, there is always a photo of all of the alumni with the bride and groom (one of which is also an alum) taken on the disposable cameras.
I took single use cameras on a month long trip to Europe (broke 20-something! Could barely afford the plane ticket never mind a camera) Most memorable pictures taken were the ones of the home my mom grew up in on a mountainside in Portugal. 
At every family wedding, my dad spanks his sister’s butt and freaks her to the song, “Baby Got Back”…she is also 300 lbs. If that isn’t a winner, I don’t know what is…
I caught the bouquet and my FI caught the garter, and we got engaged a month later! There were great pictures of me diving for the flowers and him being pushed toward the garter! I’d love to put these cameras in the activity bags I have for kids at the wedding.
the four year old flower girl trying to break dance! I guess she had seen it on tv and wanted to try out her own moves!
I love seeing picture of people from all around the wedding, people get goofy with these camera’s but also think to take pictures a photographer might miss. My favorite was of my two best friends and I at one of their weddings, we had no professional photo of just the three of us, so luckily we got this shot in on a disposable camera, and it actually came out GREAT!
An overhead look of the Bride and Groom cutting the cake, looking directly in my camera lense…it’s sounds awkward, but looked amazing.
Someone at a friend’s wedding stuck the camera down their dress and provided some up close and personal pics of their cleavage. They still have no idea who it was!
also, never used these cameras at the wedding, but would be a cool touch!
I got one of the only photos of my best friend (the bride) with a couple of our old high school friends. The people outside of the wedding party don’t always end up in photos with the bride and groom, but that which a photographer might miss a table camera can capture.
My little cousin who fell asleep on the dance floor- all of her “dancing” just tuckered her out!
My friend, even though she had a photographer, and had forgotten her digital, she had someone buy a camera and handed me a disposable camera to take more pictures from a different angle. They come handy! Available anywhere. I definitely would say as they exchange their vows. The way they look into eachother eyes as they say “I Do”! Now, that is the meaning of a Kodak moment!
My favorite moments captured is the reaction a groom gets the first time he sees his bride walking down the isle.
I can’t think of a specific “memorable” photo that I’ve taken with the disposable cameras but having them at each table is a great oppotunity to guests to capture those great moments. I’d love to win this!!!
I’ve never been to a wedding!! My wedding will be my first!
The groom tossing the ringbearer in the air. The thrilled/terrified look the on the ringbearer’s face was priceless!
My favorite is of most of the groomsmen standing in a cute “jackets off” pose- totally not planned, but super cute!
i have never been to a wedding that had cameras love the idea:-)
My favourite is the time a few friends made a wedding scene entirely out of salt and pepper shakers, napkins and the remains of the candy favours. They were pretty awesome!
It has to be when I caught the bride drinking Bud Light from the can… the picture was otherwise great, so she was mad that nobody gave her a glass
Best shot ever was the ring bearer asleep in his plate of food at the reception!
I didn’t capture it, but it was a pic of me & my FI at my cousin’s wedding. It was the first time he met one of my extended families! My cousin sent me the pic…it’s not the greatest, but it has meaning !:)
The best photo was with the bride dancing with her grandfather. Very heartwarming.
i’ve never used one for a wedding before. ppl always have their digital cameras ready to go. but i think this is good to have and then collect them to develop to see your wedding through your guests eyes.
The groom looking at the bride with just such a complete look of love and happiness!
A little girl started crying because she didn’t catch the boquet (she was about 3!) and so the bride gave her her boquet! : )
The tears of joy on a groom’s face who is known for his toughness!
The best photo was of the bride dancing with her new father in law. It just made it all come together.
Hmmm… so many to choose from. 
Maybe the fact that the best man was picking his nose and didnt know it. I got proof and we laughed for hours…
I don’t know. I’ve never been able to see the photos that were taken with the camera. They went right to the happy couple!
The flower girl kept pulling up her dress.
I honestly can’t think of a specific picture that was taken with a single use camera, but I would love to have one at each table at my wedding. Unfortunately it wasn’t something we put into our budget.
I have yet to use a disposable camera at a wedding….but I could be the first out of my friends! =)
The flower girl trying to kiss the ring bearer… too cute!
Pics of the little kids running around with other disposable cameras! It turns out that kids love these things.
we caught an amazing moment at a friend’s reception. FI was sitting between me and one of his friends. The friend knocked a glass of wine in our direction, FI did some crazy matrix move to get out of the way, and the entire glass landed in my lap. We caught the whole thing on film!
When my fiance and his good friend helped each other with a crazy back flip … they were rusty!
please pick me!!! please pick me!!!!
I never saw any of the disposable camera images I took at the last single-use because they were given back to the bride and groom– but I did get a lovely picture of a flower girl and ring bearer with a kodak instant camera once.
the brides three teenage sisters were also bridesmaids and somehow convinced the server to bring them childrens plates (pizza and fruit cups) in addition to their “adult” food…..the picture has a spread of the food along with a bottle of chocolate syrup being poured into a glass of milk. Spoiled girls
A picture of the groom’s grandma’s shocked face when the groom was taking off the garter. Funny, priceless moment.
I totally caught one of the groomsman trying to get the number of a cute girl at the wedding and sealing it with a smooch! It was very cute and I totally embarrassed them, but they are still together today!
a tear that my grandma tried to coverup with a sneeze. it was hilarious!
bride smashing the cake in the grooms face!
unfortunately i didnt get to see all the pics we took at our table!
this is great for candids and therefor, scrapbooks!
ditto nancy’s response: the bride smashing cake into the groom’s face
I got the best shot of my Friend at her wedding leading the conga line with her now husband smiling behind her. They both looked so happy and in the moment. Simply the best!
The groom… sneaking rolls into the bride’s handbag for later
The mother-of-the groom’s best-friend-who-never-drinks-but-drank-a-lot-of-wine-at-the-wedding-reception dancing up a STORM!!!
I’ve never been to a wedding where the couple used these, so it would be nice to be able to use them at mine.
I got this idea from a wedding I went to- a scavenger hunt for the single use cameras. I’m going to use the idea too because I captured the cutest moment of a baby eating cake (the messiest cake eater). He had shoved his face into the piece of cake and had icing from head to toe!
~Ash
My wedding is the first one I will ever attend, so I have never had the opportunity to take pictures at an event. Less than 4 weeks until that changes though!!
Bride and groom’s first dance =)
I was a bridesmaid and I caught the bride tearing up before things were about to begin when we were all still in hiding. I still love that picture!
Group picture with my best college buddies
My favourite shot is to have the maid of honour carry a small camera down the aisle (hello wrist straps and excuses for a small clutch!) with her and when the doors open for the bride, she can snap a shot of the groom’s face.
A guest dipping her foot in the fountain.
One of my best college friends got married on the same day as our alma mater was playing our biggest rival in football. At the reception, I noticed that one of the bride’s guests was the spitting image or our team’s head football coach. I captured a photo of my friends iPhone showing our team in the lead, with the “coach” sitting at the next table. When the groom got the photos back, he thought it was quite funny that the “coach” chose to be at his wedding rather than the big game. Thank goodness our team won!
i don’t have the pic anymore, but it was the ringbearer who was very young (~4yrs old) trying to hide underneath the brides dress from his dad during the ceremony.
never used one, but now’s the time to start!
Definitely the one of the bride and groom across the table from me, framed by a candelabra, and pretty hazy/blurry from all the wine and champagne her new MIL insisted I drink. The photo looks just like I remember the evening looking!
Well, it wasn’t the most glamorous photo, but I was thanked by the bride and groom for standing on my chair and taking a picture of the food. They wouldn’t have had any documentation of the wonderful presentation without it!
mold on my dinner roll! My brother used the pic as evidence when they were having billing trouble with their caterer.
The flower girl sitting alone at a table, while the adults were dancing, with cake crumbs stuck to her lips licking a big glob of icing…
3 bridesmaids tripping over each other trying to fix the bride’s train, which she’d stepped on.
nothing out of the ordinary..just the good times sitting at the tables with our friends and family. and snapping pics with the bride and groom!
When we friends went outside to decorate the groom’s car, I took one of the cameras with me to capture the shenanigans!
the bride and groom chatting with the bride’s grandfather at my table. i have no idea where the actual photographer was, but the picture i got is priceless!
the grooms parents who are divorced from each other and not getting along, we had a picture of them laughing with each other.
I can’t think of anything that stands out, but I love how people are able to take picutres of the guests at each table to be sure to capture everyone that was there. We usually get everyone at our table together for a great pic. Then capture the night in the guests eyes:)
sadly i never got the chance to see all the pics from disposable cameras from my friends’ weddings! hmm, wonder if i should ask them abt it..
my newborn sleeping with the bride/groom in the background
not sure what the best image ive taken but i love it!!
I have never used a disposable camera at a wedding, but these would be great!
I’ve never gotten to see the results…but I’ve taken pictures of all sorts of stuff.
I took a hilarious picture that was for the brides eyes only… but I’m sure she shared it with her groom. When all of us maids were bustling her dress, we realized that the bride was going quite - *er- airy, shall I say underneath her gown… I got a very cute shot of the yards of satin and lovely satin-like skin of a behind
It would have to be my uncle taking his daughter’s second line umbrella, acting girly and leading the second line…TOO FUNNY!
during the bouquest toss, one girl in the front, not only did she jump up high, she jumped all the way back and reached all the way back to grab it. i got a picture of her leaning back during her jump to grab the bouquet, while slammin into people. Gotta love the bouquet toss!
I’ve never had a chance to use these at a wedding, but they would be great at mine since so much stuff will be going on at the farm!
Oh my… We took some really goofy pics in the reception bathroom. Very funny.
nip shots
I used these throughout highschool, senior prom, senior class trip, all really memorable!
Bride/FG dance. So cute!
1st dance!
My baby brother getting his birthday cake at my sister’s wedding while the everyone (300 peeps) sang Happy Birthday! My sister had originally planned to have the wedding on his birthday, but decided that wasn’t fair…he shouldn’t have to share his special day with hers…so she had it the week before! She surprised him with his fav cake. He was turning 14!
a picture of the ring bearer grabbing a handful of the wedding cake BEFORE the bride and groom cut into it!
last wedding my Fi & sister went insane with the camera. we didnt know many people so we focused on getting FAB shots of ourselves & my mom with her cousins! never got to see them tho. would LOVE to win!
i’ve honestly never used a single-use camera before, but i really would love love love these for my wedding!
I got a great shot of my friend’s dad tearing up during the father daughter dance.
The flower girls riding the communion rail like it was a rocking horse.
My brother and cousin sneaking some cake.
At my Aunt’s wedding I caught a shot of her 5 year old daughter sticking her finger in the cake and licking the frosting off. It was rather funny.
Sometimes, I try for photos of nose or wedgie pickers… I know, I know. But it’s funny!
I’ve never been to a wedding with a single-use camera, but when I was a starving college student I used them for everything, including my summer abroad in Moscow. Yay for disposable cameras! I would love to have these at my wedding.
You think the chicken dance is classic? Try the father of the bride of the white bread variety being taught how to dance Greek-style. CLASSIC!
The best picture I have ever seen taken at a wedding by a single-use camera is a picture from my parent’s wedding: the only boy from the children’s choir that sang during their wedding caught my mom’s bouquet, and we have a shot of him up in the air, stretching to catch it.
At my uncle’s wedding I got a shot of my sister grooving around the dance floor pretending to play a saxophone from the band. A very silly moment!
I also have yet to take a pic with a disposable camera at a wedding. I would love to be the first at my own wedding.
At my cousin’s wedding, I caught the groom blowing kisses to the flowergirl - a pic neither photographer could catch. They framed it, and have it in their living room.
Making silly faces!
I don’t know if these pictures were the most valuable, but I got some really great pictures of a 6 year old ring bearer and 5 year old flower girl dancing.
My Fiance and I taking self portraits with the table camera! The bride and groom sent us the pictures in our thank you card. I would love to return the favor to a happy couple!
I’ve actually never been to a wedding with disposable cameras I’d LOVE to be the first one *lol*
The best pic I have from a friend’s wedding is a photo of my incredibly drunk fiance (boyfriend at the time) grinning from ear to ear with the garter in his mouth. He caught it and was very excited about it.
My parents don’t dance, but somehow at my cousin’s wedding, we managed to get them out on the floor together. I took pictures of them with the table camera, and my cousin developed them and put them in her thank you note. My mom was so thrilled, she blew up the best one and put it in a really nice frame for their dresser.
Or, from the same wedding, my brother and my cousin making monkey faces at each other. Classy and hysterical.
At my cousin’s wedding I caught one of the little ring bearer stealing a sugar paste rose from the cake base BEFORE THE CAKE WAS CUT!!!! Luckily his mother directed him away from the cake table before he started on the rest of the cake.
I took a picture of my cousin and cousin in law when they were walking down the aisle after being pronounced man and wife and my cousin kisses his wifes hand. It was such a warm and tender moment.
I don’t think I’ve ever taken a picture with a disposable camera at a wedding. I’d love to be able to have them at my own to see what fun ensues!
My all time favorite wedding camera moments were not taken by me, but rather by my nieces and nephew at a wedding. There is nothing like seeing the world from the view point of a 4, 6 and 8 year old.
The last wedding I attended was a Big Fat Greek Wedding - and I captured the Bride’s Gramma who was pushing 90, leading the line with napkin in hand brushing the floor and gettin’ DOWN! It was an awesome moment and makes me chuckle to this day!
Kids doing cartwheels.
I’ve never used one at a wedding, but I’ve always wanted to!!!
i caught a budding relationship at a friend’s wedding - and almost 2 years later, attended their wedding … priceless!
The groom swinging around the four-year-old flower girl (his new niece!). It was a beautiful moment. I would love to have a slew of disposable cameras on hand to capture completely impromptu, completely wonderful , completely ‘Kodak’ moments like that.
all the times i’ve used a single use camera at a wedding, i had to leave it for the bride and groom, so i don’t know what they’ve developed from them…
I havent used one yet, but I love taking all pictures at weddings so Id love to have these for mine.
hahaha… I was fooling around with a disposable camera at a wedding and pointed it at my friend. She didn’t think I was actually taking a picture, and she flicked me off right as I clicked the shutter. I’m sure the bride and groom appreciated that lovely gesture as they got their photos developed. My friend was so embarrassed!
hard to choose just one. they were all from weddings!
I have never been to a wedding that had these on the table either. I would also be a first. What a great reason to pick me;) He he!
a pair of boy and girl 5 yr olds dancing away on the dance floor!
A picture of my 5 year old cousin using all the single-use cameras left on the tables to take his own photographs of the wedding, it seems like he’s a natural born wedding photographer!
I think it was all the pictures I took at my friend’s wedding back on Nov. 06 - her photographer did a horrible job and she always says that she thanks me for the pics I took with the cameras she had on the table.
my groom’s face
A great picture of my old boss busting a crazy move on the dance floor. She looked like a cross between MC Hammer and an injured chicken. Too funny!
i don’t think i’ve used single use cameras at a wedding since i was very little…i don’t want to know what horrible pictures i took back then : )
My H2b and I together with the bride and groom in the foregoround….It’s happening soon…like seeing in the future! Pictures are memories frozen in time…I want these….hahah
I’ve never used a disposable camera at a wedding but I hope others will get to at mine….
I’m planning to purchase disposable cameras for our wedding this NOv!! This would save me the cost!!
The most perfect Kodak moment is when the bride is walking towards the groom where you see the back of her beautiful train and her groom smiling at her. =)
My MOH’s mother got married and we too a bunch of goofy pics. the reception was in a skyscraper that had floor-to-ceiling windows, and we took lots of great ones with the city as the backdrop. and ones of people pretending to be suspended in mid air over the city…
I have never been to a wedding that had disposible cameras and its too bad because there are definitely some funny moments that were missed by the photographer. Including the frustrated look on the groom’s parents faces when he couldnt break the glass.
never been to a wedding but I’d like to capture my parents booging to some sean paul!
One of my girlfriends decided to propose to her man while we were all at another friend’s wedding. I managed to snap a shot of her on bended knee looking up at him. Classic! (He said yes by the way.)
I want to have them on each table at our wedding so others can catch these kind of moments at our wedding! Would be cool for my best friend or her guy to pop the question on our big day….hint hint Becky…(or Greg if you’re reading this)
My parents dancing together at my cousin’s recent wedding in Hawaii! (They NEVER dance!)
I took a really great shot of my cousin and his new wife kissing after she shoved cake in his face. It was a very *sweet* moment!
The usually emotionless brother of the groom actually crying during his toast.
Family members doing the electric slide. Gotta love those “traditional” dances
Ummm… it would have to be when all the kids took the dancefloor and really put the adults who were dancing to shame!!!
FI proposed on the beach. we used a one-use camera to capture the special moments that night.
My FI and I went on a trip to Tahoe for the anniversary of our first year together, and it was my first time gambling. On our last night I won $94 on a slot machine and he captured me jumping up and down licking the winning receipt on our disposable camera (we didn’t bring the digital because we didn’t trust ourselves to drink and take care of electronics). When we moved in together recently (about three years after the trip), I found the camera and had it developed, not knowing what was on it, and was thrilled to find it. That crazy funny picture is now framed in our hallway
The bride’s favorite shot of the day- she put it on their wedding website and the main photo!
Nothing crazy - just table shots. But I love the idea of a scavenger hunt for the table! Then you don’t wind up with so much wasted film.
A nice college “reunion” picture of our group at the wedding..
pic of guests reaction to bride/groom grand entrance….priceless
during a the wedding ceremony, the bride’s 3 year old son says, Mommy I want to go home.. You see the couple standing there and the kid tugging on the mom’s dress. so priceless!
The most memorable moment is when my dad and step-mom made their grand entrance to their reception dancing to “Call Me Irresponsible.”
It’s been such a long time since I’ve been to a wedding with dispoisable cameras….like 7 years!!!!!! and I can’t remember that far back…uh oh.
The human pyramid of 20 people including bride and groom in the country club lobby… it was classic… until it collapsed..
My friends and I gave out free hugs in SF last year for a day, and our pictures definitely reflected the happiness and cheer that one physical touch made on everyone. It was an amazing experience.
the kiss!
At a wedding I was at, I noticed tha the flower girl was missing and I looked around the room to see if I could spot her. What I saw was the bottom of a shiny little dress peeking out from under a table. Turns out that the little munchkin was sneaking an extra piece of cake under the table! I took one of the disposable wedding cameras that were on the tables and snapped a picture of her “caught in the act”. The look is priceless as she was taken by surprize with the flash!
First dance!
my cousins and her bridesmaids linedancing!
I always get the grooms face when the bride appears.. I love it!
The groom’s mother as the bride begins her walk when she dislikes the bride….priceless!!
all my friends doing completely random poses!
The mother of the bride standing on the steps of the church watching her daughter get out of the limo and walk towards her. The look on their faces when their eyes met was really touching…
The bride after the wedding at the reception, sitting on a couch, feet on the groom. AND GASP! A pair of blue camo tennis shoes peeking out from under her white dress! She said it was her “blue” item. !!!!!
The moment midair when friends were jumping the broom. It’s a hard picture to get unless you have a digital and you can take multiple shots, but I was able to get it with a disposable.
I’ve never been to a wedding with single use cameras, but I love the idea!
I feel like my favorite picture is a group of people from our university (Texas A&M, whoop!) getting together on the dance floor to sing the fight song, loud and proud, as a group.

The ring bearer eating his steak…the whole piece of steak on the end of his fork and just chewing on it like he was from Roman times!
