Guest Photos

Danielle, on June 7, 2022 at 8:59 AM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 21
Hello! I was wondering what everyone is doing to ensure they have photos of all the guests. Do people still take photos with each guest table? Group photo on dance floor? Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

    Hey there we had our photographer follow us around as we greeted each table and we also had a 360 photo booth that was a major hit. The vendor sent us a file of everyone’s photo.

    Yes since we knew we weren’t going to eat anyways we did that during dinner as a way to greet everyone while they waited to be called to the buffet. We ate before the ceremony. It was a nice way to connect.

    Hi Danielle. You can also have your guest download the wedding wire guest app. It’s an easy way for all your guest to share photos they took. We’re having a photographer and will definitely do a group photo!

    Our DJ suggested doing a group photo out on the dance floor right before he announced the dance floor was open. It was a great way to have our photographer get a photo of everyone and because everyone was already out there, people were inclined to start dancing right after!

    I didn’t know the wedding wire had that capability! We were going to us a QR code and have guests put their photos in a Google Photos album. I will need to look into that. Thanks!

    I rented it from a place in Los Angeles I don’t know the name of it. But if you are local I am happy to send it.

    Thanks, Melle! I would love to hear more. Was it during dinner? Are you happy you did it? Is there anything to think about when executing table photos?

    It was a bit more towards end of dinner.

    another thing is that in my culture we do what is called a welcome photo. so that means after people check in at the guest sign in table, the couple is standing right next to it and you can greet them and grab a photo with them that gets printed and they get to pick up at the end of the night!

    this is what i'm talking about [they call it thank you/welcome pic]: https://www.hanentertainment.com/thankyoupic

    it DOES take a bit of your time like it took me an hour cause i had a lot of guests [250] but if you've a smaller crowd it could be not much time actually! it also was a nice way for you to get photos with people and for people to have another memento for the night.
