Cape Cod Photo Booth

Whether it's the old-fashioned type that spits out a strip of images or a backdrop set up by a photographer, photo booths are a crazy-fantastic way of capturing a (typically crazy-funny) snapshot of each guest.

And I'm crazy-go-nuts about this particular photo booth, which made use of some classically campy Cape Cod-themed props. Gotta love it when granny gets it on with a plastic lob-stah.

For those interested in renting the old-fashioned kind, check out Cape Cod Photo Booth. And ask your photographer. So many now are offering them. 

It's also possible, without too much effort, to put one together yourself. Click here for some ideas on how to do it. As a gift to the bride, a guest set up this photo booth.  She tacked up some fabric, hung paper flowers, threw some props in a basket and called it done. I give her mad credit, though, for taking pictures almost all night.

Cape Cod Wedding Venue: Nauticus Marina

We'll keep up the nautical theme for a few more days.

Billowing nautical flags? Check.
Small-scale lighthouse? Check.
Docks leading out to luxury yachts? Check.
Sailboats slipping by? Check.
Sun set over the prettiest little inlet? Check.

There isn't much that Nauticus Marina, located in Osterville, doesn't have. This privately owned marina is available to rent for weddings of all sizes and shapes. Other than the lighthouse building (which has an impressively carved mahogany bar, by the way), there isn't any indoor facilities so a tent is required.

I've seen Nauticus dressed up in all kinds of ways - from white cotton and daisy simplicity to gold satin orchid opulence. But I love those weddings where the bride and groom embrace its inherent nautical-ness.
