Debating between a photo booth or videographer

I say the videographer, and yes, it’s totally worth it !!

I agree videographer! If anything you can just set up a cute backdrop somewhere and have props from like amazon and have people take pics with their own phones.

I would prefer the videographer any day

Definitely do the videographer!

I had both at my wedding and I would definitely choose the videographer over photo booth if I had to pick one. We literally haven’t looked at our photo booth photos since the week after our wedding.


We’ve watched our wedding video a handful of times. It was wonderful to see the parts of the wedding I either wasn’t able to see (like my grandpa walking down the aisle) and relive some of the parts I couldn’t fully absorb on the wedding day (like how nervous my husband looked waiting for the ceremony to start). We’ve also lost some immediate family members since our wedding, so the video of them in a happier time is literally priceless to us now.

Videographer, for sure.

Not having video from my wedding is my only regret. It is the one thing I would change if I could go back.

The highlight reels are really lovely, and they present the prettiest parts of the wedding. All videographers are different, but most of the cinematic style ones will give you a video that still tells a story of your day, like a little movie trailer.

Photo booths are fine, but they aren't wildly entertaining. I've been to weddings where only two or three guests even used them. And most of your guests will only go in there once. You'll get many more photos from your actual photographer that you will cherish far more than goofy posed pictures in silly hats.

Video!!! We had both at our wedding. We’ve watched the videos a bunch (it just really puts us back in the day emotionally!) and scrolled through the photo booth pics just once or twice. Photo booth is fun, but video is much more sentimental. I will say, I was surprised by how much I loved having video of the toasts and special dances. If it’s a nominal fee to add on ceremony, toasts or special dances, consider adding one of those to your package. 😊

I'd go with the videographer for sure!

Thank you all so much for your thoughts. Now time to decide on the videographer . Greatly appreciate it
