If you’re thinking of ways to provide some evening fun for guests to the reception, hiring the services of a photobooth is a well-known option and is always a lot of fun.
I can remember experiencing one for the very first time at an event. I was completely amazed by it , and it was so popular there was literally a long line of guests waiting patiently their turn. When it came my turn to get married I ensured that we had a photographer too. In fact one of my most favorite pictures from the day were from my photo booth. One of my grandmother wearing a red cowboy’s cap, not realizing the concept of is a photo booth is! And the one of my wife and my children all smiling! Far more us than the traditional smiling at the camera photos!
In the years since, there are many variations on the humble photo booth. The Magic mirror or selfie pods. They are even available in taxis or camper vans! It’s fair to say photo booths are just as popular as they’ve ever been. There are also many photo booth companies either. It’s a highly competitive marketplace and from experience, some suppliers are simply amazing. Others appear to be failure. It’s therefore important to choose the right supplier. But how can you be sure? In this post I’ve have decided to contact one of the most well known Photo booth businesses across the country to give us their knowledge on what to consider before you hire a photo booth for your wedding! Here are the top five things to consider before booking an photo booth!
Always do you homework, make sure that the company has some events under their belts and go through their reviews. You should be able to easily find a company’s reviews by doing a quick search on Google. Do not be afraid to ask your venue for help or advice on companies they’ve worked with previously. As a general rule an established company that is well-presented on social media or on the internet will normally be the better one to partner with. Never rush your decision and always look at least two businesses to ensure that you’re getting the most value for your requirements.
There are so many booths to hire, and they all vary in quality. Don’t get fooled by the notion that it’s a photo booth is a photo booth. Certain booths have lower-quality cameras, and others use lower quality printers , so be careful. There are booths with cool extra features, such as 360 spinners as well as animation GIF or video record, as well as flipbook printing.
Many companies offer an all-inclusive price for a specific number of hours , but make certain to confirm that there aren’t any extra costs, such as costs for printing or travel. The majority of companies offer an initial package time and price. Normally this would be about $500 to $800 for three or four hours. This includes everything you require like prints, props and even a guest book. Make sure that any travel charges are either paid for or are fair.
Did the company respond to your emails, calls or enquiry in good time? You need to be able to trust a company and a good company should always make sure they are responding to customers as fast as they can. Do not be afraid to ask questions if you’re not sure of any information.
Visit their website and social media for photos, a business ought to be proud to show off their work and the photo booth company should be no different. It is possible to request samples of photos to be posted to you, and request a copy of a digital file, make sure you’re satisfied.
