Monte Bello Estate Wedding Photo Booth in Lemont, IL

June 5, 2017

The Monte Bello Estate is a wonderful wedding venue located just 20 miles southwest of Downtown Chicago. We had the pleasure of working with Courtney and Nick for their wedding reception on this spacious 55 acre estate surrounded by restored prairie. Fotio photo booth fit in perfectly and we used the fun flower wall the venue had next to the dance floor. View the full gallery of photo booth pictures here: http://fotio.co/10-8-16-monte

Best Midwestern Chicago Barn Wedding Venues for Rustic Vintage Themed Event

March 2, 2016

We always get excited when we have brides and grooms ask us about renting a Fotio photo booth for their vintage themed Chicago barn wedding. We love the unique style and rustic feel that comes with a barn type atmosphere - plus our vintage open air photo booth style fits in perfectly! There are so many unique barn type venues around Chicagoland and the surrounding suburbs but here are a few of our favorites. First is the Hoosier Grove Barn, a beautiful and simple wedding venue in a renovated historic barn, located in the northwest side of Chicago in Streamwood, Illinois.

Another one of our favorite barn style wedding venues is Heritage Prairie Farms located west of Chicago in Elburn, IL. Heritage Prairie Farm is a certified organic farm (the food is absolutely delicious here!) and they have a magnificent barn area that is used for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, and photo booth fun. Generally the reception is held in the tented area since the barn is a bit small for larger groups but the barn still works great for Fotio since guests pass by use the restrooms. We love the rustic backdrop and easy going atmosphere here!

The next Chicagoland barn wedding venue on our list is the County Line Orchard located in northwest Indiana in Hobart, IN. The County Line Orchard has a sensational 29,000 square foot timber barn that was built in 2009. This is a beautiful and huge venue perfect for a rustic themed wedding. The wooden barn walls work beautifully for a Fotio photo booth backdrop.

Fotio at the Grove Redfield Estate for Elizabeth and Warren's Wedding

June 17, 2015

The Grove Redfield Estate is a beautiful outdoor/indoor wedding venue located in Glenview, IL (just north of Chicago). The Grove is part of the Glenview Park district and a national historic landmark as it was once the home of renowned horticulturist Dr. John Kennicott. The grounds are just wonderful and our vintage style photo booth fits in perfectly with the unique architecture and lush surroundings.

As the night went on we turned the camera around and used the stone wall/column on the pavilion as the photo booth backdrop during the wedding reception.
