What kind of photo booth is best for an outdoor wedding reception?

If your wedding reception is outside, you will want to have a weather proof or at least a weather resistant photo booth. This means a hard sided photo booth to be protected from the wind. This could be a wooded box style with a sitting area for 2 people or a photo bus made from a VW Bus converted into drivable photo booth. 

What you don’t want for an outdoor weding. Wind and rain are the biggest issues for booths that are out side. A back drop on pipe and drape can be a big sail if wind picks up. Anther problem is moisture. Most photo booths have some water resitstance for light rain. A camera on a tripod would not last long if it began to rain. the lens would hget water spots and the flash would catch on the falling rain drops.  You will want to keep your photo booth on a covered part of a patio, against a wall if you can. 

What kind of photo booth is best for an indoor wedding reception?

Indoor wedding receptions have a lot more options available. Budget becomes a bigger concern for indoor photobooth options. If you are looking for a budget friendly option thats still fun for you guests, go with a kiosk style and a back drop. Most photo booth companies will have some backdrops that are included for free. You can usually fit quite a few people in the picture frame and you get to keep the line moving when more people go through at once. 

If youd like to spend a bit more to get a custom step and repeat backdrop, you can special order them starting around $300. The good news is that its your to keep after the wedding.

If you have a big space in your reception hall, inflatable photo booth rooms can add a big wow factor to you party. They usually come with white or opaque plastic and neon light that illuminate the whole room in bright changing colors.
