5 Reasons Why Your Wedding Needs A Photo Booth


1) Suitable For Everyone

If children and teens are present during your wedding and reception, you will want to keep them occupied.   Yes, an amazing DJ was booked for the event and plans were made to have a consistent flow of cocktails, however, dancing and alcoholic beverages are not for everyone.  Just about anybody enjoys taking photos, no matter what age they may be.  A photo booth allows people of all generations to gather with a few comical props, preserving memories that will last forever. 


2) Time Filler

Guests at the reception site will be anxiously waiting for the arrival of the bride and groom to begin the festivities.  A wedding booth gives family and friends an activity before the beginning of the reception.  Also, it helps prevent pre-reception boredom of the guests.  This allows the bride and groom to relax and not rush through taking their wedding photos just to rejoin their guests.  A photo booth will have your guests raving about your wedding weeks afterward.  

3) Creative Guestbook

Having a guestbook is probably the most important reason to have a photo booth for this important day.  One of the perks of having a photo booth during a wedding is guests are able to add their photos to the guest book while leaving a congratulatory message for the newlyweds.  This adds a new twist to the traditional guest books and it will be one to gaze through on numerous occasions. 

4) The Memories

A couple hires a professional photographer to capture special memories, from the moment the bride walks down the aisle, to the first dance, and everything else in between.  What a professional usually doesn't capture is that excellent moment when Uncle Frank flashes a peace sign while wearing a shiny tiara.  A wedding booth generates and captures the memories that a couple may not otherwise have and instantly turns into a keepsake for those who will always remember.  

5) Favours

A common theme for wedding favors is an engraved shot glass or champagne glass filled with a candy or perhaps a decorated mason jar with a candle inside.  Proper etiquette when hosting an event is to send "thank you" gifts to your guests for sharing this lovely experience, but by doing away with cliché gifts.  Include the wedding date and logo on the photo booth pictures to ensure your guests remember where and when they had that giant gold wig and goofy smile smeared across their face. 



While getting through a wedding ceremony may be quite stressful, the reception is usually the time to relax and have a blast.  It is guaranteed that by the start of the reception, there will be an abundance of guests squeezing in front of the photo booth camera with props in their hands to have their picture taken.  Photographs of the bride and groom posed with family members and friends are wonderful, however, there is immense value in having unplanned and unedited photos of this magical day.  So grab mom and dad and capture an impromptu family photo, or meet the bridesmaids and groomsmen at the photo booth for a loony party photo.
