Things to think about when planning a wedding:

The popular new product sweeping the events industry!

THERE ARE SO MANY PHOTO BOOTH COMPANIES AVAILABLE TO BOOK FROM, THAT IT CAN ALL FEEL LIKE A BIT OF A MINEFIELD WHEN TRYING TO DECIDE WHO TO BOOK WITH. ARE YOU GOING TO GET THE BEST VALUE FOR MONEY, THE BEST QUALITY AND THE LOOK THAT YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE? WE’VE PUT TOGETHER SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE BOOKING YOUR PHOTO BOOTH. READ REVIEWS It goes without saying that reviews and testimonials are usually a good indicator of a companies reputation. You wouldn’t book your caterer without reading reviews; even though booking a photo booth isn’t top priority reading reviews is just as important. Check to see what customers have said online, Facebook is always a great starting point. And if you want even more reassurance, why not get in touch with a previous customer. Any reputable company will have links on their website to third party companies who vailidate their reviews, please follow these link to make sure that they are legitimate, some of the main third party companies are Facebook, Google, Trust Pilot or Best of. QUALITY IS KING The way we see it, a photo booth is sometimes the only opportunity your guests get to take away physical photos from your wedding or event. The photos that they can stick straight into a frame or on their fridge to remind themselves every day of the fun they had. Don’t be afraid to ask to see printed samples from photo booth companies. It’s the best way to get an idea of their quality, and know exactly what you’re paying for. And check out their online photo galleries and social media too. LOOKS ARE EVERYTHING There are so many different types of photo booth available to hire, so before you start looking think about what you want them to look like. Are you going for a more vintage look, a sleek contemporary feel, a or a traditional box photo booth? There really is a photo booth for everyone. There are 4 main types of photo booth available. Inflatable Photo Booths-a unique take on a traditional photo booth, these bring something different to your event. 8ft x 8ft and fully enclosed to enable larger groups (up to 10) to have a picture together, and with LED lights to enable us to change the colour of the booth to match your colour scheme or theme. Suitable for all events and perfect for larger venues. Magic Mirror Photo Booths-an ever popular addition to smaller parties or venues, Magic Mirro booths fit perfectly in a corner or smaller area whislt still bringin a touch of class with the mirror style design. Suitable for all events and perfect for smaller gatherings. Party Photo Booths-a traditional square or oval shaped hard shell booth with a modern and sleek design fit approx. 3 people inside comfortably and fully enclosed to capture the perfect picture. Suitable for all events and perfect for medium sized gatherings. Open Air Photo Booths-much like the Magic Mirror booth but with your choice of backdrop for guests to pose in front of and a choice of 'station' (heart shaped, white tower etc) these booths are again a popular choice for those with less available space. Mor unique than a Magic Mirror, these are possibly our most customisable booths. Suitable for all evetns and perfect for smaller venues. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR When it comes to photo booths, you get what you pay for is the phrase that comes to mind, and it isn’t the case that cheaper is better. What you don’t want is a company that promised you the earth, to arrive with a camera on a tripod. It happens. Photobooth’s are not made equal, and if one company is more expensive than another, then there’s a very good reason why that is. The better the technology, quality, and features usually means a higher price point. Don’t forget that personalisation should be taken into consideration when looking at prices too. If you want a photo booth that can customise everything to fit your event or wedding style, then expect to pay more than a company that offers exactly the same thing each time. MAKE IT YOURS! Talking of personalisation, the best photo booth companies really can match your experience to you. Whether that’s matching your printouts to your wedding invites or ensuring your brand is front and centre. You can have props personalised to you, backdrops created for you and photo galleries branded. If you want to make it unique you can! ALL THOSE LITTLE EXTRAS There are photo booth companies out there that are a bit like flying with a budget airline. On first appearances the price seems to be amazing, but then they start to add on all those little extras. Want to print more than one photo each time? That’s an extra £50. Need a guestbook, another £50. How about customising your print out and even set up and breakdown. Turns out that they’re not included either, so by the time you’ve finished it’s almost double the original price. Establish exactly what each company offers, and check for those hidden extras such as travel costs, price for additional prints and guestbooks. Here at J.A.B.S Event Hire we are completely transparent with our packages. Expect unlimited prints every time, guestbook, full customisation, a USB, Email Option and a web link to your pictures, so you are share your photos with your guests.
