We obtained spectro-interferometric observations in the visible of $beta$ Lyrae and $upsilon$ Sgr using the instrument VEGA of the CHARA interferometric array. For $beta$ Lyrae, the dispersed fringe visibilities and differential phases were obtained
in spectral regions containing the H$alpha$ and HeI 6678 lines and the H$beta$ and HeI 4921 lines. Whereas the source is unresolved in the continuum, the source of the emission lines is resolved and the photocenter of the bulk of the H$alpha$ emission exhibits offsets correlated with the orbital phase. For $upsilon$ Sgr, both the continuum and H$alpha$ sources are resolved, but no clear binary signal is detected. The differential phase shift across the line reveals that the bulk of the H$alpha$ emission is clearly offset from the primary.
