    If we do decide to do it, it will be totally DIY- a cousin used an app on their iPad and had it set up off to the side so we will probably do that!

    Idk if we’ll have one. Unless we find one that fits our theme. Honestly it’s not an essential.

    Extra. No one really keeps the photos after, even though it’s a fun touch.

    Definitely an extra. It's also been at almost every wedding I've attended in the last 4 years. Time for something new (IMHO) if you're going to splurge

    Hi ChefKait! This is an awesome idea! If you do decide to use an App to DIY your own Photo Booth, we'd love to see pictures of your backdrop and hear about how it works Smiley smile

    Extra. My DJ threw one in for us for free, so we are having one, but I wouldn't shell out exyta cash for one. I must say though, they can be super fun!

    We did a VW photobooth. I think weddings are boring so if there’s no activities most people eat, drink a little, and leave.

    With a wedding as small as mine, this is a total extra. I think we are doing one for the wedding shower though!

    Extra. I don't get the hype, and I'm not sure when they became a "wedding staple" but I've never been a fan. No photobooth at ours!

    Essential! It just adds something special to your big day because of all the fun photos you get from your guests to go back and look at.

    EXTRA... but I'm having one. Mostly because I won a contest and won a free photo booth. But I did desire to have one, but if my budget wouldn't allow it, I would have created a selfie station instead. LOL
