Celebrating Claire’s 50th Birthday at Chilworth Manor with the 360 booth and all evening digital booth – A Night to Remember!

Celebrating Claire’s 50th Birthday at Chilworth Manor – A Night to Remember!
When Claire first got in touch with us all the way from America, we were so excited to be part of her plans to celebrate a huge milestone—her 50th birthday! Originally from the UK but now living in the States, Claire wanted to mark the big 5-0 in style, surrounded by her family and friends back home. And what better place to do it than the stunning Chilworth Manor in Southampton, Hampshire?
We’re lucky enough to be a recommended supplier for Chilworth Manor, so when Claire asked the hotel who to go with for capturing unforgettable memories, they sent her our way—and we’re so glad they did! She chose our ever-popular 360 photo booth for a 3-hour hire and also booked our Digital Photo Booth with a clean white backdrop for the entire evening. It was the perfect combo to make sure every laugh, dance move, and sparkly outfit was caught on camera.
Now, let’s be real: the British weather definitely didn’t play nice that day. We got absolutely soaked during setup and again when we were packing away. But honestly? It didn’t matter. The vibe inside was pure joy. Claire and her guests brought the sunshine with them, and not even a bit of rain could put a damper on this party!
Chilworth Manor itself really set the tone. The venue is such a gem—a gorgeous blend of historic charm and modern elegance, surrounded by beautifully kept grounds. It’s the kind of place that feels luxurious but still warm and welcoming. We can totally see why Claire picked it!
There were so many fun moments throughout the evening, but one that definitely stands out was the cake situation. Claire’s cake was absolutely lovely—but things got a bit dramatic when the big “50” candle caught fire! Don’t worry—we were quick on our feet and it was out in seconds. Still, it gave everyone a bit of a laugh and made for one of those “remember when…” stories you’ll talk about for years.
As the night came to a close, we made sure Claire received her online gallery super quickly. With her flight back to the US just days away, we knew it was important that she could relive the magic and share the memories with her loved ones across the pond.
From candid snaps to slo-mo spins on the 360 booth, the whole night was filled with smiles, love, and a whole lot of dancing. We’re so grateful to have been part of such a special milestone and wish Claire all the happiness in this next chapter of life.
Happy 50th, Claire—and thank you for choosing us from across the Atlantic!
