I just received a link to our good friends Christine & Todd’s wedding on Offbeat Bride (a great resource for brides who are having nontraditional weddings, and even those who are!).

As mentioned, GO FESTIVE! was at the beautiful event and captured some of the action! Christine and Todd are total pros in the photo booth!

Flipbooks were then popularized in the early 1900′s by the Cracker Jack Company who gave them away as free in-pack prizes. Other marketers soon followed suit, including manufacturers of breakfast cereals, bubble gum, cigarettes, automobiles and snack foods. The trend continued strong through the 1960′s. But unfortunately, that trend ended in the 1970′s as new technologies began to take the spotlight.

But now, flipbooks are back and better than ever! Go Festive offers the most engaging and entertaining flipbook experience. We’ve also created a process to make the design and production of flip books from live-action video footage easy and efficient. For an unforgettable moment, rent a Go Festive flipbook station now!

“I just wanted to take a moment out of the craziness of this week to send a sincere thank you to everyone for your contributions at Larissa & Julio’s wedding. The couple has expressed to me  that the wedding exceeded their expectations and they were very pleased with how everything turned out.

As a Coordinator, I recognize that I am only as good as the event partners I surround myself with.  I am glad that I was able to work with a vendor team that works with the same level of professionalism, dedication and wonderful product that I try to achieve.”

“I just wanted to say that having the flip book booth at the wedding was AWESOME!! When I tell you that it was all the rage at the reception, I am not lying!! People are still talking about it! It was no hassle, no fuss, just pure FUN! The books were out fast and well put together and your staff went above and beyond to help anyone! They were superb! I would DEFINITELY recommend you guys to anyone that wanted to take their party up a notch, or FIFTY!!

We had a great time working with Dana, LoriAnn and Bryan. The wedding reception was beautiful, and we’re so happy that we got to be a part of such a great celebration.

TLC is currently interviewing Philadelphia brides that are getting married before April 11, 2010 to be featured in their new show. Unlike some wedding shows that portray brides in a negative light or show only $500,000+ weddings, “Four Weddings” will reveal each bride’s hard work and their drastically different weddings. The brides will also collaborate with one another and attend each others weddings! Wouldn’t it be nice to attend a wedding without the obligation to buy some random gift?

As if it isn’t exciting enough to have your wedding featured on TLC, you could also win an all expenses paid honeymoon for your first wedding anniversary!

If you’re interested in being considered for the show, contact Kelly immediately at TLCBrides@gmail.com or 215-505-7775 ext. 102. Good luck!
