Between Thursday and Saturday of last week, the Smiling Dog Entertainment team had the privilege of providing photo booth experiences for six unique and amazing events, delivering a total of nine separate photo booth activations.
One of those events was Stamp Joy 2025, hosted by Taylored Expressions at the Iowa Events Center. This annual event brings together more than 500 creative cardmakers from across the country for a weekend of crafting, connection, and inspiration — and we were honored to play a part in making it extra memorable.
Photo Fun from Start to Finish
On Thursday night, Stamp Joy kicked off with a lively cocktail hour where we set up two print-and-digital photo booths, giving guests a chance to snap fun keepsakes — including photos with Taylor herself, the founder of Taylored Expressions.
Throughout Friday and Saturday, guests enjoyed our self-directed digital delivery photo booths, each perfectly placed in front of stunning balloon backdrops provided by Squeak Balloon Decor.
And because no celebration is complete without a little sugar, we also provided over 30 candy dishes for their opening day Candy Bar — a sweet touch that was a big hit!
A Wonderful Note from the Client
On Monday morning, we received a heartwarming message from Maggie at Taylored Expressions, who shared:
“Thank you so much for everything you did for us and your incredible team. Our guests had a wonderful time and our assigned attendants were absolutely wonderful! The candy buffet was perfect.
What are you up to in October 2026? Our event is October 8–10 next year and we’d LOVE to work with you all again!!
Thanks for everything. You all were so friendly and accommodating. The event was absolutely perfect and you all contributed to that!”
Hearing feedback like that means the world to us. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with amazing teams like Taylored Expressions — and we can’t wait to do it again next year at Stamp Joy 2026!
