8 Things to Know for your Wedding Photo Booth
Make your Wedding the Best!
Pictures last forever and who can resist the charm of a photo booth at a wedding? This is not only a great way to get memorable wedding day photos, but also fun, casual and impromptu photographs! Besides being lots of fun, it’s also something that the guests will definitely remember as an original detail from your wedding. Take note of the following ideas and assure you have the most successful photo booth on your wedding day!
1. Location
It is very important that the photo booth is located in the right place, namely in a spot where all the guests can see it. It should be strategically incorporated into the reception venue, ideally near the bar or close to the dance floor. Every time a guest or a group of guests takes a photo, they should sign it and tape it to the wedding guest book or hang it up if a place for that has been set up. We also offer high end photo guest books, which is a great way to remember all your guests and great memories.
2. Number of Guests
The more, the merrier! When deciding on a photo booth for the wedding, choose one that can accommodate more than one person – at least 2 or 3 people at a time. This will make taking pictures a lot more fun! We have fit 13 in our photo booths! We like to invite you to a challenge, can you fit more?
3. Get the Word Out
Don’t forget to spread the word: let the guests know that there is a photo booth at their disposal, free of charge! Ask the DJ or whoever else is in charge of the entertainment, to announce and periodically remind guests that there is a photo booth at the wedding… so that no one misses out on the picture-worthy fun! Don’t worry, we do this for you! We are always in contact with the DJ or Coordinator to make sure the booth is always active.
4. Prop or Not to Prop?
Anything and everything is allowed – moustaches, glasses, wigs, hats, feathers, horse heads, signs with funny sayings, bow-ties, empty picture frames, … or no props. Whatever floats your boat, we have a great quality photo booth that takes great portraits or silly classic photobooth photos. Choice is yours..
5.Wedding Favors
The pictures that guests take at the photo booth can also be the wedding favors – everyone will love to take home a fun moment from your wedding, frozen in time. To complete the wedding favor, prepare a table with small picture frames (they can even be cute cardboard ones!) so that guests can frame their favorite photographs before taking them home. We can add picture frames to your package and check wedding favors off your list!
6. Show it Off
During the reception, plan a showing of all the pictures taken at the photo booth during the wedding. We can also show off all the great photos on a projector, get a good laugh out of all your guests who will absolutely love to see all the photos that were snapped.
7. Show your Style
If you’re considering renting a photo booth, be aware that different types of booths have different types of layouts for printing out the pictures that are taken: while some print out 4 photos at once, others print out only one, while others may even print out the photo as a postcard. If you wish, you can personalize the layout to include the wedding date or a sweet message for your sweet guests… Most of our package include custom design to match the print to your wedding. No cookie cutter templates here! We also offer 5×7 prints for an even bigger wow factor!
8. Make it Memorable
What’s better than spreading the love at your wedding? Making memories out of it, of course! When you rent a photo booth for your wedding, you’re allowing everyone who walks through it to make a lasting keepsake out of it, with both a digital copy and a print of their photograph. It gives them something that they can, in turn, share with friends and family (especially grandparents who live far away and love seeing photos of their grandkids). And the best thing is, all of that cheer, all of that nostalgia, all of that fun around the wedding or event, it will all be something that you helped to create.

Thanks for sharing! I just love the idea of having the guests put their set of photos in a wedding guest book, or on the wall. That would be such a cute way to document all of the people who supported you on your big day! In my opinion, having the booth close to the guest book would be a really good idea. In fact, I could imagine having one right next to the entrance of the venue!
