I recently read that photobooths are on their way 'out' as a 'wedding trend'. This surprised me on a few levels.
First, I didn't realize that it had become a tend, per se. I mean, does any/everything featured in one's wedding have to be considered a 'trend' or a 'thing'? Can't it just be something that was at a wedding? I'm not even up in arms about the "WIC" or anything and this confused me. But hey, I've never been trendy (I wear nude shoes with gray pants, which is apparently a big no-no), so I'll take it because it means I was trendy, for a period in time, and I can claim it as a characteristic.
Second, WHY ARE THEY ON THEIR WAY 'OUT'?! Hive, I freaking love photobooths. If I haven't made it blatantly obvious yet, I am a picture whore. Choosing our photographers was not an easy decision (but it's one of the best we've made, if my recaps haven't echoed that sentiment clearly!). Deciding to have a photobooth was, however, an easy decision - even if it took some effort on my part to convince Mr. Palm Tree that it was worthwhile.
Long story short: I went to GM Pythagoras' sister's wedding prior to our engagement. She had a photobooth. I fell in love. The Palm Tree's had a photobooth. Boom.
