    So glad we booked!

    Our unique photo booth was an absolute HIT at our wedding! Words cannot describe how happy we are that we decided to do something different and go with Pearl the Foto Camper instead of the traditional Photo Booth. It was SO much fun and working with Dez was a joy. We are looking through all of our Photo Booth memories and reliving the weekend… Thank you so much for an unforgettable night!

    Bessy is THE Best!!

    One of the hottest topics from our wedding was Bessy The Photo Booth! She was the only big detail from our wedding that was a total non-negotiable for me. I had an incredible amount of excitement about having the cutest little bus at our wedding as I have always been a huge fan of these cars! Dez was on time, an incredibly sweet and fun human, and everything was beautiful!! Everyone in attendance visited Bessy and we couldn't be happier! The props were on point and post card option we chose was perfect! We went with 3 images and our wedding logo, and it was amazing. The image quality is great and photos are big enough to actually see well. Communication was fantastic leading up to the wedding, and I'm legitimately searching for another reason to book with Dez again. 10/10 Couldn't be happier!!!!

    Best Photo Booth!!

    One of the best decisions we made was hiring Bessy the Photo Bus to be a part of our wedding day. Our guests were so delighted, the staff was amazing and we paid a little extra for a custom photo book that now we have on our coffee table to remember all the silly and fun times our guests had. We got to pick the backdrop, photo strip and neon sign. Everything was custom! Would hire them again in a heartbeat!

    definitely recommend

    We had Bessy The Foto Bus at our wedding in SLO and all of our guests LOVED it. They had so much fun taking pictures with all of the props. The bus itself is so cute and adds the perfect. I am so glad that I I did this because it gave us a way to get pictures of all of our guests since it is not possible to get pictures with everyone especially with a bigger wedding. Staff was so sweet. Definitely recommend either Bessy The Foto Bus or Pearl The Camper for your wedding.

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review. My employee said she had so much fun. And your family and guest were so kind and fun. Best wishes for you two.
    Cheers,

    Fabulous experience!

    Awesome experience booking the Whole Shebang package with Pearl the Photo Bus for my wedding! The props, backdrop, and outdoor seating were all super cute. There were many different photo strip images to choose from and we received the digital photos a few days after. Guests loved it!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Oh Sarah,
    Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Your wedding was absolutely gorgeous. Thank you again for having me at your wedding.

    Amazing. Highly recommend for guests

    We booked Pearl the Foto Camper for our wedding at The White Barn in September 2022. We had an awesome experience booking the Whole Shebang package. The owner Dez truly goes above and beyond for her customers. She has various props, backdrops, and outdoors seating options to choose from. Our wedding was the first wedding that Pearl had attended where it rained. However, that did not stop our guests from truly enjoying the experience. In addition, Dez had a fast turnaround when it came to getting us copies of the photos. I would definitely use them again! :)

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you for the glowing review. My assistants said they had a great time with your guest and family. Best wishes to you two.

    An Absolute Hit!

    We had the pleasure of having Dez and Pearl the Foto Camper join us on our wedding day. Pearl was an absolute hit! Dez is incredibly professional, responsive, and kind. Things can be crazy on the wedding day, and Dez gave my husband and me a much-appreciated reminder to hop in the booth and take a few photos. If you are anything like me and can't decide if you should book a photo booth or not, BOOK IT. But don't just book any photo booth, book Bessy the Foto Bus or Pearl the Foto Camper! You will not be disappointed!

    Everyone loved Bessy!

    Having this unique experience was one of the top hits of the wedding! Everyone loved the photo booth, the props, and getting pictures to take home. We have our photo booth pics on our fridge and it’s some of my favorite pictures from the wedding. It was absolutely worth it!!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you so much Alex for the kind words.I still talk about your wedding! I mean a falcon and owl flying into the ceremony! Epic! Keep rocking on guys.

    The Best Photo Booth! 🙌🏼

    I’m so happy that I found Bessy! It was such an awesome hit at the wedding. Everyone loved it. I paid extra for the guest book and I’m so happy I did so I highly recommend them.

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words. You are a sweetheart. My girls that worked the booth at your wedding said your guest where such a blast!
    Best wishes,

    Awesome Experience!

    Dez went above and beyond for our wedding and I will be forever grateful! We reserved Bessy the Fotobus because my family had a VW bus growing up and I thought my siblings would get a kick out of it. My ceremony site was a long walk from the nearest building, so I asked Dez if she would be willing to "drive me down the aisle" and she was game! Everyone got a kick out of it and it made for really cute photos. In addition to this extra coordination, Dez was a pleasure to work with the whole time. Our original wedding was postponed due to Covid so she received emails and questions from me for two years!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Your wedding was a highlight of my wedding season! Driving you down to the ceremony was great. I loved seeing the look on your guest faces when Bessy pulled up. Thank you for the kind review.
    Cheers,
    Dez

    Amazing Experience!

    We were so thankful that we decided to book Pearl for our wedding! It was an absolute hit - people loved grabbing their friends and taking silly photos in the booth. Plus the aesthetic of Pearl absolutely added to the ambiance of our wedding.

    Dez is also an absolute dream to work with! She's responsive, flexible and has such a creative eye when it came to designing our photo strips and background of the photos.

    I would highly recommend booking one of Dez's amazing photo booth's!

    Bessy the Foto Bus

    We hired owner Dez's "Bessy the Foto Bus" for our wedding in Santa Ynez. We got to choose our background of the photos- we chose white sequins, the photo booth neon sign that lights up (she has 3 options!), the background of our printouts, and Dez even matched the exterior decor and rug with our wedding theme! I was so impressed! It was a huge hit at the wedding. The bus itself is in pristine condition and the camera inside the bus is high tech and beautiful. I was very happy with the entire experience including her quick turnaround time to get us all the photos and her quick email responses! Dez was great to work with and I'd highly recommend booking her ASAP!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Your wedding will forever remind me of Otis and Pearl dishes. I loved your blue and white theme of your wedding. It was beautiful and romantic. Thank you for having Bessy at your wedding.
    Cheers,
    Dez

    So worth it! Everyone loved Pearl!

    Pearl the Foto Camper (the sister to Bessy the Foto Bus) was the best addition to our wedding. Everyone loved grabbing fun props and taking photos inside the camper. People are still talking about it today!

    Dez, who owns Pearl/Bessy, is a dream to work with. She is so responsive and so flexible. She graciously set up Pearl hours before our wedding started so everything was ready to go when we made it to our reception. I am also so impressed with how fast we got out photos back. We had them as digital files the next day and in a flash drive the following week!

    I can't recommend the photo buses enough!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you so much for the lovely review! Your wedding was amazing. I’m still telling people about the flower dude! ❤️

    Fun for Everyone Involved

    Pearl the Foto Camper was just as much a gorgeous piece of decor as an entertaining photo booth. Our friends and family kept trying to pull us from the dance floor to take more photos with them! Dez was kind and professional in every interaction. We only wish we were local to the area so we could have Pearl or Bessy at a future gathering.

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Your wedding was really cool. I loved that you had two ceremony in one day. And the Botanical Gardens where a beautiful backdrop for your wedding day.
    Best Wishes,
    Dez

    So fun! Must have for any wedding!!

    So cute and so much fun for all our guests! Dez was great to work with, she really enjoys what she does! There were dozens of props and accessories to make the photos all hilarious, and we even have a cut handmade book of all the photos people took. Truly made the night that much more special. Thank you Dez for being a part of our wedding!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you so much! Your wedding was very fun! My new favorite wedding blessing came from your wedding. May your marriage be as long as your CVS receipts! Best wishes.

    Bessy was amazing!

    Bessy was such an amazing touch to help complete our wedding day! I had found her well before we picked our wedding venue and our date, so once we picked it, it was the first thing I booked and she did not disappoint!

    Dez, who owns Bessy is literally the sweetest person, she emailed back and forth with me about 500 times as I indecisively couldn’t decide which background to do, she looked at my Pinterest board to help her the outside theme, the background and the photo strip perfect, she was so sweet and fun during the actual wedding that all my guests loved her.

    Bessy looked gorgeous sitting outside my venue and people took about as many pictures inside as they did outside. Such a great touch, the photos also came out quick and were high quality. If you are looking for a unique photo booth experience for your event look no further book Bessy (or her cute sister Pearl the photo trailer.)

    Thank you Dez and Bessy for helping make my wedding so special.

    Best impromptu decision!

    I was going back and forth getting a photo booth, since I feel like the novelty has warn away as many weddings have them these days! But a photo BUS is another story. Bessy was a the life of our cocktail hour! I wish I had booked her for longer, but Dez her caretaker was amazing as well. People had so much fun, the Drake props were the best and perfect! Bessy totally fit int he with vibe and design of our wedding! The quality of the photos came out amazing! Dez even tied in our invitation suite design into the photostrips!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Wait! It's been almost 3 months since your wedding!?!It seems like it was just last week! Your wedding was absolutely beautiful. From all the colorful outfits to the amazing music. Thank you for having us at your special day. Best wishes to you and MangalPal.

    So much fun!

    The Foto Bus was such a great addition to our wedding! Everyone had so much fun dressing up in different props. We were able to gather a photo book of all of the photos everyone took, and now we have memories to cherish for the rest of our life! I would recommend to anyone to hire them, it was such a great addition to our wedding!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Perfect Unique Addition

    Bessy the Foto Bus was the perfect, unique addition to our wedding! Everybody absolutely loved Bessy, there was a large selection of great props for our guests to choose from, and there was always a line for pictures. Dez (the owner) was really easy to work with, and she did an awesome job of making custom photostrips to match our wedding theme. The best part is that I'll be able to keep the those memories forever with the USB she offers of all the photos taken in Bessy that evening. I would definitely recommend Bessy the Foto Bus to anyone looking to wow their guests with their photo booth!

    Bessy the Foto Bus's reply:

    Thank you for your lovely review. The reception couldn't have been more beautiful.You and all your guest where very fun to work with. I wish you many years of wedded bliss to come.
    Cheers,
    Dez Cobb
