Unfortunately I don't have any pics from out photographer yet but here's a couple I snapped from my phone on our 'big day' (7.23). The wedding was in the (now) wife's fathers back yard for about 120 people.

A real special thanks to Kawdud for some last minute vinyl printing to get the 60-in-1 looking decent.

It was about a perfect mix...the arcade had some attention..just about the right amount not to detract from the main tents and wedding. But, almost every game had someone on it throughout the night. I never actually made it over there except for a couple pictures

Hiding next to the Family Guy is World Poker Tour which surprisingly got the most play out of the 5 games there

I fought some major problems on the Robotron after moving it to the wedding location. It went from no boot... then no sound...then no interface controls. The Millipede monitor (Matsushita) grenaded after I got it home..somehow the flyback cracked and shorted out. Needless to say it's got a g07 in it now. They all did survive the night with no problems

That overlay actually looks nice on the machine. Next thing we need to do is paint that poor cab. No vinyl for the outside of that one. Good test subject for something I have been working on.
 
Congratulations, its cool you incorporated some of your games and people actually played them! Just celebrated my 19th on aug. 1st wish you lots of happy years.
 
Thanks Bottle!

The overlay did turn out pretty good John..I txted ya some pics after it was done..did ya get them?

The Pac cab is borderline...not nearly nice enough to hunt down Pac parts but...still give the 60 a nice nostalgia look. I wouldn't mind putting it back to a Pac if a good set of stencils were available..then I'd probably start looking for parts

Great idea, very cool! Rep for you good sir. Nice to see the guests enjoying the games.

Monster Bash is an awesome pin.
Your Robotron sticks are too short, contact Wolfeel for some 4" :)
 
very cool! glad that you've got a wife that was cool with setting up a mini-arcade at the reception.
 
we had our reception in the basement of a bowling alley, just up the stairs were a multicade, police trainer, and a couple pins. all the people at the main table were given a buck in quarters.
 
THAT... Is friggin AWESOME!!!
