Why a photo-booth at your wedding?

Why a photo-booth at your wedding? One word: FUN!!!  I heard one bride say: “I don’t want to take away from the dancing. I don’t want people waiting in line for the photo-booth when they could be dancing instead.”  My response is, if they think the photo-booth is more fun than dancing, you should let them have (the more) fun! We are so used to thinking that people have to dance, that we are closing our eyes to what a wedding reception is all about.

Oprah once did a show all about weddings. At the end, she polled brides to see what was the most important part of a reception. They all agreed that it was the conversations with family and friends! Oprah asked why we spend so much money on the decorations, the music, the cake, etc. if all we want is good conversation. The answer came back that all of those things support the conversation. Whatever is fun, new, exciting, personal, unique and refreshing will help the good conversation at your reception.

The photo-booth is all of those, plus it is something your guests actively do. We all have certain friends and family members that maybe don’t talk that much, but we love to do things with them.  And how about those people that never dance? Again the photo-booth is the perfect activity to get them doing and talking together.

Still want people to dance?  The photo-booth will help them get started. It will get them out of their chairs, laughing, and having fun. Think of it as foreplay for the dancefloor.
