There’s a reason so many couples fall in love with The Hudson -- it’s one of Wichita’s most iconic downtown venues. From its exposed brick walls and dramatic lighting to the clean, modern layout of Gatsby Hall and the Atrium, it’s a space that effortlessly blends timeless romance with contemporary edge.
The Hudson is ideal for couples who want a wedding that feels chic, editorial, and completely personalized. And as a vendor, we love it just as much, because it sets the stage for some seriously unforgettable photo booth moments.
Why We Love Wedding at The Hudson
The Hudson isn’t just beautiful -- it’s flexible, and that makes it a dream for photo booth placement, creative layouts, and easy setup.
Multiple Setup Spaces: We’ve placed booths in the Atrium, Studio 504, and near the Urban Garden exit, and each area offers something special. Our favorite spot? The Atrium just outside Gatsby Hall—it’s right in the guest flow between the bar and dance floor.
Early Setup, No Stress: Thanks to the venue’s layout and helpful team, we’re able to set up booths well ahead of guest arrival without getting in the way of ceremony décor.
A Stellar Team: Every time we work with The Hudson team, it’s seamless. They’re kind, accommodating, and always make us feel like part of the celebration.
Real Weddings, Real Memories
Jess & John
This Monday wedding was extra close to our hearts. Jess is one of our amazing Neon Flamingo attendants, and celebrating her marriage to John was such a full-circle moment. We brought our Hollywood Booth and the Lois flower wall from Wichita Flower Walls, which served as both a photo booth backdrop and a dreamy head table setting.
“Neon Flamingo Photo Booth was an excellent addition to our wedding day. Michelle and Chris were incredibly timely and efficient in their communication, making the planning process a breeze. Their work quality and value were both excellent and affordable. I was able to share my wedding invitation design with them through Canva, and they seamlessly incorporated elements of the invitation into the photo booth overlay. This really helped tie everything together with the colors and font choices. Michelle and Chris went above and beyond to help make our day special, from the setup to the final product. I also love how quickly they sent me the link for all the photos with and without the overlay. I have used Neon Flamingo for non-wedding events in the past, and they consistently deliver outstanding results. I highly recommend them to any couple looking for a fun, affordable, and customizable photo booth experience for their wedding.” – Jess
Libby & Jenner
This couple wanted a mix of moody and modern—and they nailed it. They chose both the Hollywood Booth and Black & White Glam Booth, pairing them with a sleek black backdrop that matched the venue’s industrial elegance. Their guests loved the scrapbook station, and the black-and-white prints became a stylish keepsake of the night.
Suzy & Benjamin
While they skipped a traditional booth, they made the most of our Maui flower wall for guest portraits and used the orange Recalling Memories Audio Guestbook, which popped perfectly against their blue and orange décor.
Photo Booth Experiences That Shine at The Hudson
The Hudson’s aesthetic is incredibly versatile—whether your vibe is soft and romantic or bold and modern, our luxury photo booths elevate the space.
Hollywood Booth + Slideshow
This combo is perfect in the Atrium. Guests can view real-time photos from the booth while waiting at the bar, making it an interactive centerpiece. It’s eye-catching, stylish, and always sparks conversation.
Black & White Glam Booth
The moody lighting and industrial finishes of The Hudson are ideal for high-contrast glam shots. Think old-Hollywood meets modern editorial.
Digital Selfie GIF Booth
This booth shines in spots like Studio 504 where there’s extra room to roam and play. Carlene & Austin, Heather & Jesse, and the Hales all chose this booth for their weddings, and their guests had a blast.
Enhancements & Add-Ons That Stand Out
Slideshow Display: Having your photo booth slideshow visible from the bar (especially in the Atrium) turns the booth into a shared experience, not just a side attraction.
Scrapbook Station: With multiple layout options at The Hudson, it’s easy to add a scrapbook station without clutter. Studio 504 is a great choice if you want a little more breathing room.
Audio Guestbook: A creative way to match your color palette and capture sweet, silly, and heartfelt voice messages from loved ones.
Pro Tips for Using a Photo Booth at The Hudson
Over the years, we’ve learned a few tricks to help couples get the most out of their photo booth experience at this venue:
1. Choose Your Location Wisely
The Atrium outside Gatsby Hall gets the most foot traffic. If you opt for Studio 504 or the Urban Garden exit, just add signage or ask your DJ/emcee to announce it throughout the night.
2. Mix Print + Digital
Want to keep things trendy but timeless? Do what Libby & Jenner did—combine the polished feel of printed black-and-white photos with the fun of a digital booth or slideshow.
3. Make It Part of the Design
The Hudson deserves a setup that matches its style. Sleek backdrops, custom photo templates, and a coordinated guestbook setup turn the booth into a statement piece.
4. Let the Booth Be a Conversation Starter
With so many visual elements—from the bar to the brick walls to the flickering candlelight—The Hudson is full of moments waiting to be captured. A visible photo booth setup encourages mingling and memory-making, especially early in the evening.
