Unique Ways to Incorporate Photobooths at Your Next Event

Photobooths are no longer just about taking fun pictures—they’ve evolved into immersive experiences that can add a unique twist to your event. Whether you’re hosting a corporate function, wedding, or birthday party, here are some creative ways to incorporate photobooths that will surprise and delight your guests.

1. 360° Video Booth Experience
Take your photobooth to the next level with a 360° video booth! Guests step onto a platform while a camera rotates around them, capturing a dynamic video from all angles. The result is a stylish, shareable clip that looks professional and is perfect for social media. A 360° booth offers a red-carpet experience that’s ideal for upscale events and is sure to leave guests with a memorable keepsake.

2. Use Props to Highlight Your Event Theme
Enhance your theme by offering props that reflect the event’s style. Hosting a 1920s-themed party? Provide vintage hats, feathers, and bow ties. A beach-themed event? Try sunglasses, beach balls, and floral leis. Props make photos more engaging, and themed accessories give guests a chance to get creative and fully embrace the event vibe.

3. Create a Branded Social Media Wall
Photobooths with digital sharing options are perfect for creating a branded social media wall. Set up a monitor that displays each guest’s photo along with your event’s hashtag. This adds a visual focal point to your event and encourages others to participate. Guests will love seeing their photos on display, and it boosts your event’s online presence.

4. Include a Memory Book Station
Let guests create a personalised keepsake by including a memory book station next to the photobooth. After taking their photos, guests can place a printed copy in the book and write a message next to it. This is especially popular at weddings and milestone events, providing a meaningful and interactive way for guests to leave their mark on the celebration.

5. Add a Green Screen for Custom Backgrounds
A green screen allows guests to choose their own backgrounds, transporting them to a tropical island, a famous landmark, or even a fantasy scene. This feature is fun for all ages and adds an extra layer of excitement as guests get creative with their settings. It’s ideal for themed events, where guests can match the background to the theme or explore different options.

6. Setup a ‘Strike a Pose’ Contest
Add a competitive element by hosting a ‘Strike a Pose’ contest. Encourage guests to take their best, funniest, or silliest photos, and award prizes for the most creative poses. This makes the photobooth experience even more entertaining and gives guests an incentive to get involved. Announce the winners at the end of the event, making it a highlight everyone will remember.

7. Integrate Your Brand with Customised Prints
If it’s a corporate event, add your logo, colours, and a personalised message to each photo print. Customised prints are great souvenirs that attendees can take home, and they serve as a subtle reminder of your brand. This approach not only adds value to your event but also gives your brand visibility beyond the day itself.

8. Go Old-School with a Polaroid-Style Booth
For a nostalgic touch, set up a Polaroid-style photobooth that instantly prints photos with a classic Polaroid frame. These small, stylish prints are perfect for guests to take home, and the retro vibe adds charm to weddings and other intimate gatherings. Polaroid-style booths are especially popular at events with a vintage or rustic theme.

Photobooths offer endless possibilities to make your event unique, interactive, and memorable. From 360° video booths to themed props and green screens, there are countless ways to customise your photobooth experience. So next time you’re planning an event, think outside the box and try one of these creative ideas to surprise and entertain your guests!
