Remember that PVC pipe DIY backdrop that everyone pitched in to make?
*guest photo*
We put the photo booth station at the foyer of the restaurant. We used it as a receiving line/greeting line since a large number of our Vietnamese guests were only invited to the reception (that’s culturally expected). We mostly intended the photos to be with us and guests in the style of cruise ship photos.
But our friends know how to make everything fun! Check out Mrs Pashmina, Hottie of Honor, and their partners above. Cuties, aren’t they?
These aren’t exactly the fun and silly photos that you see a lot of people doing at wedding these days, but I’m really glad we did a more traditional style. I never got a chance to stop and pose for a shot with my new Mama in law. This is the only one we got ALL DAY LONG. Similarly, these formal receiving line photobooth photos are the only ones I have with most of our guests including some very dear cousins of mine in the photo above. They helped me make this darn backdrop, and this is the only photo I have with them. I wish I remembered to take more.
My high school buddies. Again, I love this photo!
Check out the hand holding in this one. Interesting right? I love that they love each other! The wedding planning really was such a great bonding experience for them. My dad just adores Mr Hot Wings.
Side note: Have you noticed the sunburns? Look at Mr Hot Wings and Papa Hot Wings’ foreheads. Remember that the sun doesn’t care that it’s your wedding day—it’ll burn you anyways!

Do you need to catch up with the hotness?
Mrs. HW–YOU were the hottie that day! I love the DIY photo booth…what a great job you did. I’m sure you’ll both treasure those moments forever.
AWW! I love the photo of your hubby and dad!! That’s just too cute!!
HW, you are so gorgeous. Just throwing that out there.
You look amazing!! And I love the backdrop you set up! So pretty!
Love that your husband and father bonded so much during the wedding process.
That’s so sweet that your Dad and Mr. HW are close. I love the sparkle in your backdrop!
sparkly faux-to booth? yes please! terrific job, HW crew 
Love that last picture with your dad and Mr. Hot Wings!
Omg the picture with your hubby & dad holding hands is adorable!! My dad loves the FI too! He calls him his son already. 
Such a beautiful bride, Miss HW! And definitely loving your photo booth!
I love the photobooth, and I think your dad and hubby are SO cute!
Omg, the hand-holding just killed me. Loves it! Great backdrop for photos, HW, super elegant.
Love the photos! And apologies for the random tangent, but Mr. Pashmina looks quite a bit like my FH (definitely the same facial hair!).
Hahaa you can so tell that Hottie of Honor and I were having a blast with the photobooth. And we pulled those boys in! Mr. Pashmina has the worst sunglass sunburn. OMG. EVERYONE needs to wear sunscreen!!
@Frog E. Love to see a pic! Mr. Pashmina is always changing facial hair and hairdos. This was his ‘Hot Wings wedding’ look. LOL.
I love the sparkle in your backdrop, I’m trying to do the same. Where did you find the sparkle fabric?
@pink blossom: Thanks! The sparkle is not in the fabric. I hung crystals on top of the fabric. You can see how I did it here http://www.weddingbee.com/2010/10/04/wedding-photobooth-diy/

Mrs. Hot Wings, Chicago/San Diego Age and Occupation: 28, Professor Fiance's Age and Occupation: 32, Instructor Engagement Date: December 20, 2008 Wedding Date: August 2010 Venue: Ocean View Villas/Jasmine Seafood Restaurant About Me: I am a psychology grad student living in Chicago and planning my wedding to a fellow psych grad student. I am a Sunny So-Cal bred gal who trudged across the country to follow her love of psychology and ended up finding a partner in the process. I am overly passionate about anything I involve myself with. I am an activist, a foodie, a reality TV watching junkie, an over-analyzer, a photography obsesser, and am utterly cheesy to the core. This is a story of what happens when a boy and a girl meet, fall in love over academic dorkiness, and a shared love for life. We (mostly I) are planning our semi-destination wedding in my hometown of San Diego. We are excited to bring our families and friends together from across our lifespans to celebrate our future in a grand 400+ person culturally blended affair!
