Photobooth for an Event: Is It
Worth Hiring One?

If you're planning a party, you might be wondering whether a photobooth is actually worth adding to the budget. After all, it's not exactly an essential. You can have a great party without one.

But a photobooth for an event can be a lot more useful than just having another piece of entertainment sitting in the corner.

The biggest difference is that people actually take part in it. There's no timetable, no activity everyone has to stop what they're doing to join and no awkward attempt to get people interested. It's there whenever someone feels like using it.

There are always quieter parts of a party. People are waiting for dinner, catching up with friends, taking a break from the dance floor or arriving at different times.

A photobooth gives people something they can wander over and do for five minutes.

It also gives groups a reason to get together. Your cousins might jump in together, your workmates might decide to take a ridiculous photo and someone will inevitably try to fit far too many people into one shot.

That's usually where the best photos come from.

You don't need a particular type of party to make a photobooth work.

They're popular for milestone birthdays, engagement parties and weddings, but they're also great for Christmas parties, school formals, corporate events, fundraisers, anniversaries and family celebrations.

The style can change depending on the event too. A 21st might call for props and something more playful, while a corporate event suits a cleaner setup.

Most event entertainment is for a set and ends when the night is over.

A photobooth is a little different because your guests leave with something from it.

The photos become part of the event. Some will be nice, some will be ridiculous and some will probably never see the light of day again.

That's part of the fun.

If you want to add something your guests can actually interact with, a photobooth is worth considering.

It doesn't need to be the centre of the event and it doesn't need to take over the room. It just needs to be easy to find, easy to use and suited to the type of party you're having.
