Instead of paying $600+ for a 3 hour photo booth at our wedding we decided to build our own. The enclosure is made out of pvc and bed sheets and takes no time at all to assemble. This was great for us as it was simple, light and easy to move. We did build a light stand and mount for an iPad, but I would suggest buying a simple tripod with a light.

-Put the queen sheet on first. It goes on the "short" wall.

-Put the king sheet sides on next. Work your way around the structure, starting with the queen side wall first.

-Install the doorway curtain by laying the twin sheet over the doorway pipe. Then push the shower rings thru the sheet and around the doorway pipe.

-Lastly install the king sheet on top.
