Charis & Terry's Wedding at Darwen Cricket Club

What a brilliant day it was celebrating Charis and Terry's wedding at Darwen Cricket Club on 17th July 2026. We were absolutely made up to be part of their big day, bringing our Selfie Pod along to keep guests entertained and the memories flowing all evening.

A Brilliant Setting for a Wedding Reception

Darwen Cricket Club is a wonderful choice for a wedding reception. The hall venue offers a warm, community feel with plenty of space for guests to relax, celebrate, and of course, strike a pose. It's the kind of venue where everyone feels comfortable from the moment they walk in, and that always makes a big difference when it comes to getting guests involved with the photo experience.

The club has hosted plenty of celebrations over the years, and it's easy to see why couples keep choosing it. There's a real sense of occasion without things feeling overly formal, which suits a fun, photo-friendly setup perfectly.

The Selfie Pod in Action

Our Selfie Pod was a real hit throughout the evening. Sleek, easy to use, and totally self-contained, it meant guests could jump in whenever they fancied without needing any help from us. That freedom always gets people going, and the queue never seemed to dry up.

We set everything up well before guests arrived so there were no disruptions to the day. Once the evening got going, the Selfie Pod just became part of the fun, drawing people in from all corners of the room.

The Extras That Made It Special

Charis and Terry had a great selection of add-ons that really took things up a notch. Here's what was included on the night:

• A choice of hundreds of print templates, personalised to the day
• Two prints per use, so nobody had to argue over who kept the photo
• A fun prop box packed with accessories to get guests into the spirit
• A free prop basket (with a refundable deposit)
• An eye-catching 8ft x 8ft gold glitter backdrop that looked amazing in every shot
• A standard photo guest book, filled with prints and messages throughout the night
• An online gallery so guests could revisit the memories after the event
• A download link with high quality digital copies for the couple to keep forever
• Unlimited visits, so no one missed out
• Full setup and takedown handled by our team

The gold glitter backdrop was a particular favourite. It caught the light beautifully and gave every photo that extra bit of sparkle that you'd want from a wedding. Paired with the prop box, guests really let their personalities shine through.

The guest book ended up being a gorgeous keepsake. There's something special about a physical book filled with real prints and handwritten notes, and we know Charis and Terry will treasure it for years to come.

197 Photos and Counting

By the end of the night, 197 photos had been taken, which tells you everything you need to know about how much fun everyone had. You can browse the full collection in the Charis and Terry Wedding Gallery and see all the brilliant moments captured throughout the evening.

It's always a joy to scroll back through a gallery like this one. Every photo is a little reminder of the laughs, the daft props, and the genuine happiness in the room on the night.
