Six Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Photo Booth for Your Big Day

Photo booth rentals are all the rage at weddings - but what do you need to know before signing a contract? Ask potential vendors the following six questions to avoid any unwanted surprises on your big day.


6. Strip-tastic: For as long as we can remember, we've had our fun in photo booths and took home the strips of photos that printed. What a bummer to find out a photo booth doesn't even print actual strips. Verify with the rental company that you're getting the classic look. 


5. Ask for measurements: The size of the photo booth plays a large factor in determining where it can best be placed for maximum guest enjoyment. Also, if you're looking for a booth that can fit groups (bridesmaids, groomsmen, etc.), opt for a booth that can fit at least 10 people at a time (like the event booth!).


4. Double prints: Photo strip guest books make for an amazing keepsake from the night. But if your company doesn't provide double prints, your guests won't have a keepsake of their own. Some companies charge extra for double prints or force you to buy a guest book before providing them. Forget that. Go with the event booth - we'll print as many strips as you'd like and we won't charge an arm and a leg for them. 


3. Request a photo of the booth: Your wedding is one of the most important events of your life. The last thing you want is a rocket-shaped booth or something that resembles a piece of abstract art to detract from the elegance of your wedding. The event booth is sleek, black and clean - we keep it simple.


2. Set-up and tear-down time: Make sure you're getting what you paid for. Other vendors include their set-up time as part of your rental package. Double check to verify that a 4-hour rental package means four hours of photo booth time.


1. Hidden Fees: Trip fees, props, custom logos, DVDs, private web galleries...you get the picture. Don't settle for a company that charges extra fees for these items. Maximize your photo booth experience by going with the event booth - where you get all these extras at no additional charge.
