Hello Ladies!! Did anyone use a photobooth for their wedding reception? Any good recommendations? If anyone has any props they want to sell I would be interested in that too!!
Re: Photobooth
We used a photobooth for our reception and it was by far the best wedding-related decision we made. Our guests got to keep a copy and then another copy went into a scrapbook on a black page and they could write messages in a silver marker. It was really neat and we love to look back at those pictures. (A year and some later we still have some on our fridge) Plus we got to view/save the photos from their online site for free for a digital copy. We used Red Eye photobooks at http://www.redeyebooths.com/ I'm not really sure where you're at so they may or may not be in your area.
Good luck!!
I work for a Photobooth Company in the Chicago area and surrounding suburbs and I can tell you that they are very popular with bride and grooms. The company that I work for has the photobooth set up before the start of Cocktail. We take pictures of your guests during cocktail hour, than closed for dinner. We open back up after all your special dances; First, /Father/Daughter and Mother Son and are than open for the remaining of the night.
We include a scrapbook ? a photo strip is placed in the book for your guests to write a message to the bride and groom nest to their photo.
A photo than is placed in a pile for the bride and groom to have at the end of the night.
Each person who takes a photo in the booth will get a copy of that picture. For example if five people go into the booth, five people get a photo. Some companies only give two strips and everyone has to fight over the photo.
We give a flash drive at the end of the night with all the photos that where taken during the evening.
We provide props ? Hats, Glasses, Boas and the couples are more than welcome to add to the large prop selection that we already have.
