One of the best ways to effortlessly create memories of your wedding is to hire or create your own photo booth and invite guests to take some images. To liven things up a little, grabbing a stash of wedding photo booth props always makes some truly memorable and unique snapshots of your wedding.
1. Real Glasses And Fake Moustaches
If we’€™re being honest, we all want to see ourselves in a fake moustache. Add a pair of mad sunglasses to the ensemble and we can instantly see what we’€™d look like as a 70s villain on the run from police in a bad TV drama.
2. Snapchat Filters
Snapchat filters are now available as wedding photo booth props and they’€™re the greatest. Now we can actually BE that dog or have that pretty flower halo. The photo booth props can’€™t make your skin look all dewy like the app does, but you can’€™t have it all.
3. Instagram/YouTube/Regular Frames
One of our favourite wedding photo booth props is the oversized frame. Popular choices for wedding photobooths are frames that look like Instagram or YouTube screens. This way, you can add locations and dates and really help personalise your big day.
4. Phantom Masks
You can’€™t beat a selection of funky Phantom of the Opera masks as a wedding photo booth prop idea. Not only is it fun, but often you’€™ll have absolutely no idea who’€™s behind the mask. This makes for an interesting game of ‘€˜OMG, is that a GRAN?
5. Chalkboard Messages
Grabbing boards and coloured chalk is a great photo booth idea prop as your guests can personalise messages. These will start off mushy and loving before taking a sharp left into unchartered territory after a few drinks. If you’€™re in the market for budget wedding props that are a good laugh, these will do the trick.
6. Vintage And Flapper Props
If you’re planning a vintage-themed wedding or you just love a bit of vintage chic, then placing some sequined headbands, feather boas, gangster hats and tassel fringes is an easy way to create some glamorous wedding photo booth prop memories!
7. Themed Props
If you have a favourite movie or TV show, why not DIY your own themed photo booth props? We love a bit of CSI, so ours would be crime scene tape, chalk outlines, and mug shot cards. Your DIY wedding props may be less concerning to your friends and family, such as props from The Crown, Breaking Bad or Stranger Things.
Who hasn’€™t wanted to dress up as a Demogorgon at some stage, or wear a Sherriff’€™s hat and pretend they’€™re Hopper? PS ‘€“ take the hat off once you’€™re done with the photos. It’€™s an offence to impersonate a Police Officer, even if it’€™s a fake from Hawkins, Indiana. This message is even more important if you’€™re actually in Indiana at the time.
These days, wedding photo booth props are a common sight. And for good reason. They’€™re a great way to make memories of your special day, imprint your personality on the event and everyone can have a little keepsake of their involvement.
Conclusion
We’d love to know what wedding photo booth props you ended up choosing for your wedding.
