Necessary or Not: Photo Booth?

I agree with Katelyn. Not necessary. There are going to be so many pictures anyway. But I also think it depends on your personality. For us, it's just not us, but if it's you, go for it!

I love them! I think they are so much fun and add such a great addition to the wedding. I’m pretty sure ones that are open and not enclosed might be cheaper too!

Yes, I am planning on renting a booth for our wedding. It is $300 to rent and all the photobooth that come with the photographer is $600-$900.

Not necessary.

I think it just adds another element but not a necessity

I wanted to have one, but it looks like it will be out of our budget. Not necessary but I think they seem fun!

No but are fun!

Not necessary in my opinion however we got lucky and our venue includes it in the price.

I’m not having one. Last wedding I went to had one and nobody used it.

We aren’t going to have a photo booth. We’ve been to so many weddings that have had them that the novelty has really worn off. Plus, I have spent a loonnngg time putting together our playlist, we don’t want people in the photo booth, we want them on the dance floor! And if they don’t dance, they will still definitely be entertained! 😄

They are fun! But it's more of a want and not a need. Personally I like them and we will have one at our wedding!

I honestly don't see the draw to them and find them really distracting in an open floor plan venue. I've never been in one and I would never pay for one. We have 2 amazing photographers available the whole day and night and everyone has a camera on their phone.

Im creating a photo selfie setup way cheaper!! Guest use their own phones.

Definitely not necessary, although I’m sure they’re a lot of fun. We don’t have room for one, and we also can’t afford it. 🤷‍♀️

Not necessary but fun. I was gifted a polaroid that I've been wanting to use for something. So I am going to make little prop sticks and set up a DIY background with bench. They can use the polaroid for our bucket list guest book and switch to phone selfies with our hashtag after.

Not but very fun.

Not neccessary, but fun. Im not renting one, but there is a great backdrop at my venue and they have some lights for it, too. So I will set one up with a digital camera on a tripod and provide some fun photo booth props. Shouldn't cost me more than $30-$50...and for that it will be fun.

Not at all for me. But FH is really into them, so I let him go for it.

We want this but we are not making this decision until its clear it will work in our budget

Nope, not necessary at all
