Why You Shouldn’t Leave Your Wedding Photo Booth to Chance

Picture this: It’s your wedding day. You’ve planned every detail—your dress, your flowers, the music—yet when guests head to the photo booth, something’s wrong. That’s exactly what happened to Sophie & George. Their bargain booth needed internet (their venue didn’t have any), didn’t match their style, and their guests simply didn’t bother. They called Odyssey Events last-minute — and by the end of the night they told us: “You must have the best job – this is so much fun!”

A stylish Odyssey Events booth adds fun to your wedding day.

If you want your photo booth to be a highlight — not a headache — here are the 5 wedding photo booth tips every couple should know. (Yes, even the ones who think they’ll “save a bit” by booking the cheapest option.)

5 Wedding Photo Booth Tips for a Stress-Free, Fun-Filled Day

1. Pick a Booth That Matches Your Wedding Vibe

Your booth should feel like part of your wedding design — not an awkward add-on. Whether you love a retro vibe, a glam mirror booth, or a sleek open-air setup, choose a supplier who offers variety and style. Odyssey Events has booths to suit everything from rustic barns to luxury ballrooms.

2. Go for a Setup That Works Anywhere

Sophie & George’s booth failed because it needed Wi-Fi their venue couldn’t provide. Don’t let tech ruin your night — choose a fully self-contained booth with pro-level lighting and printing so it works seamlessly wherever you marry.

3. Book a Team, Not Just a Machine

You shouldn’t spend your wedding evening troubleshooting tech. A Booth Butler (our trained operator) sets up, runs the booth, and keeps guests engaged — so you can sip your champagne and celebrate.

4. Think Beyond the Price Tag

A wedding booth is an investment in memories. A bargain machine with zero support isn’t worth the stress. Choose a company with a reputation for quality, reliability and style so your photos and prints look great for years to come.

5. Work With a Trusted Supplier

Venues recommend suppliers they trust — and Odyssey Events is proud to be the South East’s longest-running photo booth company. That longevity means we know how to handle venues, guests and the unexpected so your day runs smoothly.
