Photo booths are fun, engaging, and great for social media. But there are a lot of different kinds of photo booths out there – so how do you choose the one that’s right for your event? These tips can help:  

  • Pick a Venue First – There’s no point in getting a photo booth if it won’t fit in your space. How annoying would it be to have a photo booth that blocks foot traffic or takes up all the floor space needed for other activities? Also, it’s hard to have a successful photo booth if there’s no good lighting in the venue. You will also need to match the booth to your décor and event theme. So, you need to choose an event center before you can choose a photo booth.  

  • What’s the Purpose? – You need to consider the purpose of your event before you can choose a photo booth. For example, if the event is for networking than you should get a booth that is already set up for social media with hashtags and Instagram handles. Or, if the event is for a product launch, you will need a booth that can help promote the product and brand awareness. Finally, consider the age group of your event. If its younger, a photo booth could be an ice breaker or a side activity. If it’s mostly older people, the booth will be more suited to mingling after the initial ice breakers.  

  • Encourage Interaction – What’s the point of a photo booth if no one will use it? Keep people engaged and entertained by having a collection of props like wigs, glasses, hats and other silly items. Many photo booths come with props, so decide what you want before you choose a booth.  

  • Look at Pricing – Photo booths can greatly range in pricing based on the type of booth, length of rental, the company you’re renting from, and any add-ons. On average, a rental can cost between $600 and $1,300 for the first few hours, plus additional fees for more time. Do some research and look around to compare at least three companies. Many photo booth vendors offer bundles or packages to make rentals more attainable within budget. If you don’t have a rented booth in your budget, consider doing a DIY photo booth with your own props, backdrop and lighting. 
 

These are just a few tips to get you started on finding the best photo booth for your next event. If you want more tips on photo booths, events or McAllen, TX event centers just reach out to Memorial Event Center. We’re happy to help!
