Wedding favors or photo booth?

Anastasia , on November 6, 2018 at 6:58 PM Posted in Planning 0 18
Hey everyone! I’ve noticed, as an invited guest to other weddings, that some couples opt for a photo booth in lieu of wedding favors. Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

    I personally am all for a photo booth, Anastasia!! I think they're silly fun and your guests can take their pictures home as favors. It's the best of both worlds!! Smiley laugh

    Yep! I think I'm leaning towards photo booth instead of favors too! They're just so fun!

    I also agree with photobooth. I went to a wedding with one last year. It was great for entertainment and to take pictures home! We’re doing it as well. I’ve also read that depending on the favor many guests won’t take it home.

    As a guest I love the photo booth because traditional favors arent worth the money or hassle of putting them together. Guests can have fun and take a photo home.

    Photobooth..In my opinion it doubles as a favor bc guests still have a souvenir strip to take home. 🤷🏽‍♀️

    Photobooth! All of the photos your guests will have at the end of the night can act as a favor!

    We did a photo booth and it was a ton of fun.... We rented an open one for 3 hours and there was always a line to use it.

    We are doing photobooth and favors. We want our guests to equally have fun but also feel appreciated!

    I did both but if I were to skip one it would for sure be favors. Guests have a lot of fun with the photo booth!

    We did a photobooth instead of wasting money on pricey favors that people would forget or throw out after the wedding. Everyone loved the photobooth and had so much fun! Because of that, it was totally worth the money to me. We even got a scrapbook of all photos that our guests wrote messages in for us, as well as a disc with video messages from our guests, all photos on disc, and printed copies of all photo strips that everyone took! I’m so glad we made it part of our wedding. I never remember wedding favors from other weddings I’ve been to, but I have photostrips from all weddings we’ve been to with a photobooth posted around our house and my desk at work!

    Wow! Thanks so much everyone! I really super appreciate everyone’s input. I’ve been trying to find a favor that fits us, but I’ve yet to come across one that would fit our personalities or be practical. I’d be a hypocrite if I said that I keep all favors. So I felt like I was on the fence about it. I really appreciate everyone’s insight!

    I did wedding favors that went with our theme, tea cups. However I would vote for the photo booth! I think those are fun and if they print photos for your guests that is so personal.

    We’re doing both.. but our other favor will be small jars of honey that my mom and stepdad harvest (is that the word?). So our other favors will be very inexpensive.

    I think a photo booth could be a good idea but if you’re getting professional pics taken maybe you could just print those out and give them to people? Wedding favors might be cheaper depending on how many guests you have. My DJ offers photo booth services and it’s like $450 with the discount he gave us but it includes unlimited photos and all kinds of other stuff
