The Benefits of a Photo Booth At Your Wedding

10/8/2014

Sharing with you the article below posted by New England Mojo on benefits of having a Photo booth at your wedding....

The wedding photo booth is not (we repeat not!) going away anytime soon. In fact, it has become more of a reception staple than a come-and-go wedding trend. Here’s why. The photo booth is one of those wedding reception elements that everyone of all ages will be able to enjoy together. And trust us, the photo booth is going to be a popular activity at your reception, which means you’ll have guests lining up to try it out as soon as you make it available to them. That includes your less-talkative guests who might not know anyone else at your wedding like that friend from work. Here are the top five benefits of renting a photo booth:

1. Photo booths are a great time filler!

Although you and the rest of the wedding party may be having a wonderful time getting pictures done after the ceremony, your guests at the reception site will be anxiously awaiting your arrival to get the party started. A photo booth gives your family and friends something to do before the official start of the reception and is an excellent activity to prevent pre-reception boredom. It will also help you and your groom relax and not feel as if you need to rush through pictures just to hurry up and get back to your guests.

2. Photo booth prints make for terrific wedding favors!

While there are still some brides who want to provide their guests with fancy chocolates and hand-crafted candles with the perfectly-scripted initials of the wedding couple written on them, more and more wedding receptions are moving away from the traditional wedding favors seen in weddings in the past. By incorporating a photo booth in your wedding, you give guests the opportunity not only to have fun having their picture taken, but to also have a souvenir to take with them at the end of the night.

3. Photo booths give guests the opportunity to loosen up and have fun!

At some point during the night, some of your guests may need a break from the “Cha Cha Slide” and catching bridal bouquets and will be looking for a different pastime to entertain them. Photo booths allow everyone from your adorable four year-old nephew to your kooky great-aunt (who you are amazed is still up after 9 PM!) to get together and join in the fun. No matter how prim and proper you may be, it’s extremely difficult to remain serious when you’ve got a sombrero and a pink boa on!

4. A photo booth appeals to all ages!

The ages of your guests can often vary from the very young to the very old! One of the many great things about photo booths is that they appeal to all age groups, from your two year old niece to your eighty year old grandparents. Even if your grandmother is not up for dancing the night away, she is more than likely going to jump at the chance to take a few snap shots with the new bride and groom.

5. A photo booth keeps your guests entertained!

Many couples worry about how they are going to keep their guests happy and entertained during a long wedding reception. The answer is simple, hire a photo booth! There are not many people that can resist piling into a booth with their friends to dress up in silly props and pull crazy faces.

It really is important for wedding guests to loosen up and have a little bit of fun. After all, weddings are a time for joy and celebration. As the article points out, a photo booth, especially one with props, can really bring out the liveliness of a group of people.

I really like how you pointed out that a photo booth rental can be good at a wedding since it gives your guests something to remember the night by. My fiance and I are in the process of planning our reception, so this is definitely a good suggestion. I'll run the idea by my fiance to see what she thinks about getting a photo booth rental for the big day.

It's nice to know that one thing that can keep guests happy and entertained, especially on events that can take a long time to finish such as weddings, is an event photo booth. Our family is going to have a reunion soon and we're worried that some might get bored with the event, especially if it drags on for hours. I guess getting an event photo booth will get them interested in the event and further motivate them to stay and enjoy.

Hello James,

Thank you for reaching out, and for your comment!

I can tell you from our experience that having a photo booth at a special event like your reunion adds so much life and energy to the party. Since the activity is an interactive one, it encourages everyone from all ages to participate and engage with each other. You will find that even those who tend to keep to themselves will be up and about sharing the experience.

Good luck at your reunion!

It was great how you said that guests will have a souvenir to take home with them if you hire a photo booth for your event. When I was a kid, I loved taking photos in photobooths with my friends. I still have all the pictures, and I'm really glad I took them. A photo booth is a good way to capture a memory.

My sister just mentioned the other day that she is planning to get married in a few months and she wants everything to turn out perfectly. I will suggest to her providing a photo booth for her guests during the event.
