Taking photos is one of the best ways to capture moments. People love to document where they are, who they are with, and of course, how much fun they are having. Weddings are one of those events where everyone can let loose, imbibe a bit of alcohol, and are definitely more willing to have their photos taken. Add silly props to this, and they're pretty much guaranteed to have an excellent time. Below are five reasons you NEED a photo booth at your wedding!
BTW, our sister-company, OhSNAPS Photo Booth is giving 10% off all photo booth package to celebrate its launch! The promotion is valid until December 1st, 2019, so take advantage of this fantastic offer now!
Make great memories!
A photo booth is an excellent complement to your wedding photography and videography. It is a unique way of capturing moments from your wedding that focuses on your guests having fun! While your photography and videography will focus on all things traditional (formal portraits, ceremony, candids, first dances), your photo booth will capture you and your guests being silly and just having an overall fantastic time! It is especially true late in the night when everyone has had a bit of alcohol!
Tip: Find a photo booth that can allow your guests to share their photos on social media seamlessly! OhSNAPS, for example, allows your guests to receive their photos via email or text instantly so that you can instantly gram that!
Keepsakes for your guests.
It's an easy party-favour for your guests! In our home, we have a corkboard just full of photo booth pictures my hubby and I have ever taken at weddings we've attended as guests or as photographers and videographers! We look back at these souvenirs with fondness. These photos remind us of how much fun we had, meeting new friends and seeing old friends again, all to celebrate a union of two lives. I do not believe that very many party-favours can evoke similar emotions!
Tip: Find a photo booth company that can allow you to customize the look of the prints and the size of the photos. At OhSNAPS, for example, you have the option of letting your clients print their pictures in 2x6 or 4x6 prints!
It is for ALL your guests!
Have you been to weddings where you have a small group of people on the dance floor, dancing to every song, and then you have a large group of people just sitting awkwardly? Well, give these sitting guests something to do!! The beauty of a photo booth is that anyone can use it and can have fun with it! It is a hit to young and older guests alike! Plus, it is a voluntary activity that does not require much from your guest (except maybe to put on those awesomely fun props!!).
Tip: Hire a photo booth company that matches your wedding vibe! Ask what kind of props are available, what kind of backdrops you can have! At OhSNAPS, you can choose from 15 different backdrops to match your wedding theme and style!
It does not require your attention!
We know that the last thing you'd want while planning your wedding day is to add another item on your wedding itinerary. We understand how stressful it can be to prepare such a massive party! A photo booth can have a high impact on guests' experience without too much fuss or coordination! Photo booths are easy to set up, require very little space, and can keep you and your wedding guests occupied for a few hours!
Tip: When looking for a photo booth company to hire, ask about whether it comes with an attendant or if you have to operate it yourself! At OhSNAPS, each photo booth package comes with a fun, professional photo booth attendant that can help your guests along as they partake in the photo booth experience!
Social media-ready!
Your friends and family will want to share photos of your wedding day on social media! They want to share everything, from pictures of the decor, what they are wearing, and, most of all, how much fun they are having! I am as guilty of this as anyone! Having a photo booth on your wedding day will help this along! It will allow your friends to get their photos taken and then have it shared on social media for you to look through the next day! Some, like OhSNAPS Photo Booth, even allow you to take boomerangs! Your professional wedding photos and videos might arrive in a month, but your photo booth photos will be instant!
Tip: Find a company that allows free gallery hosting of all the photo booth photos! At OhSNAPS, we put all your photo booth pictures in one online gallery that you can then share with all your friends and family! Quicky and easy!
