Visa booth close time by: D.
I remember posting the response a day or so after the above post, but it seems to disappear for some unknown reasons.
I know this is very late response and I'm sorry for that. But I post it anyway for future reference or it may be helpful for others.
Ok, let's get to the point.
The visa booth at the Friendship Bridge #1 is close at 8pm. So...if you plan to cross the border late in the evening to get the visa, be sure to make it to the Laos side at least 10-15 minutes before 8pm. I'd recommend giving yourself plenty of time (30 minutes or more)so you don't have to rush too much.

Good question by: D.
Emm... that's a good question. I'm honestly not sure. I've been crossing the bridge during that hour many times but never noticed if there are minivans around.
Will find out and share here later, though it might not be in time for you but it might be useful for future reference.
