No matter your event or budget, you can totally make it work!

Take your photos close-up to see the lace detail and hinted blurred background of being outside or take them from far away to see the entire set up. Take advantage of the beautiful nature around your event venue! The set up can even be used as a location for professional photos taken during the event. You’re definitely making the most of the idea with photo booth backdrops. Best of all, lace is easy to hang when wrapped around trees with wire or rope!
