Everything was going great, then all of a sudden, they got a serious case of the giggles!  But all worked out in the end.

The guests went inside Tamaron for the reception and were greeted by my Kurt’s Kustom Keepsakes green screen photo booth staff.  They took pictures of all of the guests as they arrived with a custom background to commemorate Abbey and Jake’s wedding.  They were then given a copy to take home as their wedding favor.

But the dance floor wasn’t the only place where the guests were having fun.  Back in the entry way, my staff was still taking photo booth pics of all the guests for Abbey and Jake’s scrapbook.  The guests had a great time dressing up and posing for the pictures, and they got to decorate the pages themselves.

Amber and Rob were married on May 19, 2012 in a beautiful (and short) late afternoon outdoor ceremony on the terrace at The Pinnacle in Maumee, OH.  The reception was held in the elegant grand ball room inside The Pinnacle where the couple’s love for video games was evident throughout the night.

My day started in the afternoon with the bride and bridesmaids getting ready followed by the groom and his guys also getting ready.

The bride and groom wanted to do a few “No Look” photos before the ceremony, and it worked out perfectly because the bride wasn’t quite ready yet when it was time to do them.

While the bride and her bridesmaids were finishing getting ready, I took some photos of the details and then the formal photos of the groom with his groomsmen.
