Disposable camera for destination wedding

Taryn, on April 25, 2022 at 1:55 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 1 3
My fiancé and I are getting married in Italy and I love the look of disposable cameras. I really would like to bring them but I’m nervous about the film being ruin with security. I know I can ask for them to be hand checked in the US, but would they let me do the same at an Italian airport ? Or is there a way I can protect them ? Has anyone else done this?

    Could you buy the cameras in Italy and then ship them back to the US? Or ship them both ways if you have to buy them in the US?

    You could ask for your photographer's help to get them developed locally and send you the digital copies?

    I've put regular film in an x ray before, and it was fine. I believe, could be wrong, that only a high end film (above a very specific grade) is affected by x ray.


    Do you speak enough Italian to ask that the film be hand checked? Whether they'll do it probably depends on the individual agent.
    I'd also think through the expense and logistics of transporting disposable cameras. If they get lost, the photos are lost. Guests might just choose to take photos with their phones
