Red Carpet Photo Booth Buffalo NY

To Booth or Not to Booth?

From the moment your guests enter the room treat them to the Red Carpet Treatment. Uptown is proud to present the best of both worlds with Red Carpet Photo's. Our professional and courteous Photography staff will ensure that your guests maximize the Red Carpet Photo experience.
So...what is Red Carpet Photo's?
Uptown took the popular Photo Booth concept and added a touch of Class for your wedding, sweet sixteen, bar/bat mitzvah, marketing event, fund raisers, proms, college theme nights or any occasion. Just like being at the Grammy's or the Oscars we bring the Red Carpet experience to your party.

So how does it work?

Unlike most photo booths that allow two, three or possibly four people into the booth, Red Carpet Photos allows singles, couples or group photos. Professional backdrops and lighting create the canvas for your unique photo experience. Available upon request is our prop package that includes wigs, boas, glasses or themed accessories.
When do we get our pictures?

Guests receive their 4" x 6" photos presented in a classy folder/frame with your optional personal message or event date. Great idea for party favors or just to remember your special day or event. Our professional printers deliver the digital prints on professional printer paper in only a few seconds.

Every wedding package includes a memory book for the Bride/Groom with copies of every photo with a special message from your guests.

Uptown also provides a digital copy of every photo taken at the event on dvd or flash drive for your personal use.

How many photos are taken during the event?

Only one answer...UNLIMITED! (during the hours of the package reserved)

Red Carpet Photo's requires a minimum of 8' x 10' of space and access to one standard power outlet.

So here's the question....

What are you waiting for?

The ladies auxiliary from the East Aurora American Legion worked hard in the kitchen to supply the attendees with a great meal. The Tops Market #118 associates staffed the raffle tables and raffles.

Uptown Entertainment supplied the Casino Tables for the entertainment of the attendees and the music. Uptown was also happy to help with Emceeing the event and the basket raffles.

With that in mind...Uptown presents...



Seven Steps to a Successful Fundraising Event



1. What is your Purpose:

Before doing anything else, you must decide what the purpose of your event is. Many charitable events have more than one goal...figuring out the details of your event will depend on what goals your group or organization is trying to achieve.



2. The Fundraising Goal:

Your organization staff, the event host committee and key fundraisers must decide what amount of money you want to raise at the event. If it is a true fundraising event, then everything in your plan should be gearded to raising that specific amount of money. It is important to remember, the amount you choose should be the amount you want to net, after expenses are deducted.



3. Your Event Budget:

Every fundraising event should include a complete budget listing of all expenses required to hold the event. The Budget should include staff, invitations, advertising, space rental, catering, entertainment, transportation, security, utilities or anything else to make your event a Success!



4. Committee and Leaders:

To ensure a successful event, a committee and committee chairperson should take command of the event. They are responsible for encouraging others to assist and getting local business leaders, local celebrities and helping to bring sponsors and donors to the event.



5. Who will you Target?
Decide who will be your attendees...open to everyone, local business people, parents...once you decide...go to step six!



6. Marketing and Sales:

How will you get the word out that you are having a fundraiser? Here are a few suggestions: direct mail invitations, email blasts, word of mouth, press releases, posters or phone banks to name a few. In order to have a successful event you have to get the word out!

Once you have the word out...you must have a procedure in place to make the ticket sales. Who will sell the tickets, how will they be delivered and who will be responsible to record incoming funds. Also very important to spell out exactly what the ticket to the event includes.



7. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU:

It is very important that once you hold your fundraising event to remember to say Thank you! Include in your thank you's the volunteers, contributors, vendors, staff and a big thank you to the attendees. A little sugar goes a long way.
