    Highlight of our wedding!

    The Basic Bus was the truly the highlight of our wedding’s cocktail hour and reception! From the very start of the booking experience, everything was perfect - pricing was transparent and James was very knowledgeable and helpful in choosing proper packages and design for our photo strips. He worked well with our venue and coordinator to make sure everything was ready to go well before the ceremony and was all for utilizing the bus in some of our couples portraits as well! Post-wedding I received all of the digitals of photos by the following day which was incredibly fast and appreciated. 100% worth every penny and cannot recommend The Basic Bus enough!

    Nothing Basic! Perfect Photo Booth

    James was the definition of perfection and made everything about our special day so flawless with renting the Basic Bus. He was Profesional, courteous, and arrived at the agreed time. James was hands down the best vendor I could've ever worked with. He was so patient and kind with me! He worked everything out so smoothly and perfectly for my wedding day. It was honestly effortless. The van was BEAUTIFUL and such a fun piece to have on our wedding day. The guests LOVED it, and my husband and I absolutely ADORE looking at all of our guests' pictures after the wedding in our photo strip book. This was, hands down, my favorite thing about our actual wedding ceremony!!! It's also such an awesome prop for your photographer, too! We loved it so much and have NOTHING but great things to say about the entire experience!!! I will try to come back and add additional pictures once I get them back from my photographer.

    100% Worth it!

    The Basic Bus was an amazing addition to our wedding, it was such a hit with all of our guests. The gentleman attending was so patient and very kind to help us out when we needed it (he did a lot of tapping for us to take the picture lol). I’m thrilled that we booked with you guys, I would recommend this unique take on a Photo Booth for anyone’s event. James was great to talk to when booking and was so good with all follow up to get everything in place. Super grateful to have you guys be a part of our special day!

    Photo Booth Guest Will Remember

    This was great value as it was only a little more than any other photo booth, but far more rememberable. They were super easy to work with and stress free. They clearly have done it before and do it right. This also gave us a little more space inside the venue as it was setup right outside the door.

    Huge Hit With Our Wedding Guests

    They are so easy to work with. We went all in on the package and definitely felt it was worth it in value and fun for our guests. Everyone loved the bus and the props.

    A Perfect Addition

    The Basic Bus was the perfect addition to our wedding reception. Our guests are still talking about it! James was fantastic. His customer service was excellent from the moment I initially reached out until we received our photos just hours after our wedding ended. If you are considering hiring a photo booth, I highly recommend the Basic Bus. We have no regrets!

    Amazing, unique photo booth experience!

    Worth every penny!!! The Basic Bus was the perfect addition to our wedding day. Our guests absolutely loved it and took so many fun photos! The fact it’s inside the bus was so cool. The outside was decorated so cute as well! Jon, our attendant for the evening made sure each experience was seamless and helped larger groups ensure they got photostrips to take home! Working with the basic bus team was also so great from coordinating set up to photo strip design and returning the photos. We highly recommend for any event you are looking for a photo booth for!

    Don't Snooze in Hiring Bixie!!!

    Do Not Snooze on Locking this Down!! My review is 5 out of 5+++! Hands down and per ALL of our guests, the photobooth absolutely made the wedding night! It was everyone's favorite thing. If you are like us, we were nervous about having too much attention on us all night. This helped give everyone something to do. We limited the kids at our wedding but the few groups of tiny kid cousins that came got the cutest pics in here! We loved not only the photos from the booth but the pictures James and others took of people in the photobooth from the outside. James was so helpful and patient with everyone and I'm sure we were all A LOT to deal with. Bixie is even more beautiful in person. I'm going to have to find another event to splurge and invite Bixie to because I wanted more time with all the cuteness. It elevated our vibes and just plain made everyone smile. It set the tone for a groovy, happy, upbeat evening right as everyone was arriving. James was prompt, stayed the entire time, let people print out as many strips and the wanted. The Swansons and Bixie are the bomb. If you are trying to figure out where to splurge on a little something extra, THIS IS IT! Thank you so much Swanson's and Bixie! It was the chill, groovy, night of our dreams and we owe you big thanks. Wishing you all the success!!!

    Wonderful!!

    Loved the basic bus! James was great, very friendly and professional. Our wedding guests raved about the cute VW bus and the fun props, and we love, love, love the fun keepsake photos!

    A crowd favorite!

    The Bixie bus was the best addition to my spring wedding! They make it so easy, come prepared, and are so great to work with! My guests loved this so much, so much fun posing and getting to have all the photos was such a bonus! Great way to get guests involved and have the best memories to show! Such a great idea!!!!

    Amazing Experience

    We were unsure about having a photo booth at our wedding but I am so glad we did! It was such a hit and working with James was a breeze. Incredible experience through and through. Very kind, professional, and understanding service was provided. The photos turned out to be so fun and something we will cherish forever.

    Thank you!

    So much fun!

    Such a wonderful addition to our wedding celebration! Our guests had so much fun showing off their pictures all night. Going through the pictures after the wedding was worth every penny! James was a delight to work with and was so personable during our wedding. We would highly recommend making this a part of any event!

    Don't pass them up

    James and Bixie were a great addition to our wedding. Everyone raved about the set up and James helped everything run smooth despite some late evening rain. Extremely responsive too on any questions which was much appreciated! Definitely more unique than your standard photo booth.

    The Basic Bus was everything we had hoped for!

    The Basic Bus was exactly what we were looking for for our wedding, and it truly exceeded our expectations! Brooke and James were a joy to work with, and our wedding guests had the best time! We did the print-out option for the photos so our guests could paste them in our guest book, and I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you so much!
