Choosing an Impressive Theme: Factors to Consider

  • Does it match the respective event? - Themes can be versatile, but some are more fitting than others for certain kinds of events. For instance, a masquerade is ideal for a black-tie affair but it's not the best for a baby shower.

  • Is it appropriate for the crowd? - You have to consider the attendees. Are they professionals at a corporate party? Then they might enjoy loosening up to a relaxing Hawaiian inspired retreat. Are they children at a birthday celebration? Then they will love something inspired by a fairytale or comic book.

  • Is it original and engaging? - Take a spin on the usual ideas to give it a unique flair. It's a great way to add an air of excitement for your guests. One way is to combine two themes like, underwater and fantasy for one that draws inspiration from mythologies of the ocean.

Dazzle with Attractions 
Attractions are perfect for adding a little something extra to your soirée. And who doesn't want to have extra fun? Living statues, photo booths, and light shows add wonder and excitement. What's more, these are quite versatile and will go along well with a wide array of themes.

Hiring the Right Entertainment 
Entertainment should be carefully thought out to suit the atmosphere of the celebration. You can go all out with acts such as medieval musicians, Christmas ballerinas, hula dancers, and more. A fool-proof option is to hire a live band that plays various music genres for diverse crowds. The key is to make sure that it’s something everyone will appreciate and enjoy.
Go Big on Styling and Decorations
Your attendees are expecting a look and feel that is true to what inspired your theme. Your venue should showcase just that through styling and decorations. Make sure that nothing is ever out of place when choosing your decor. For instance, a red carpet is great for a Hollywood party the way art deco patterns complement an affair inspired by The Great Gatsby.

Find Reputable Companies and Suppliers for Your Event
Hire a photo booth, book a DJ, or rent attractions only from reputable local companies. The success of any event heavily relies on entertainment, attractions, decorations, and styling providers. With some research, you can find ones who value your event as much as you do.

Why hiring a photobooth is a better option

Why Hiring A Photo Booth Is A Better Option Than Doing It Yourself

Life is about creating lasting memories. It is about finding happiness in the events we participate in and having the opportunity to capture moments we can share with our friends and loved ones. Birthdays, weddings, christening, anniversaries and parties are occasions you want to be perfect for you and your guests.

 

Photo booth rentals pride in providing professional and hassle-free pictures to ensure these moments are snapped and Instagram ready. Here are the five reasons why renting a photo booth is better than doing it yourself.

 

Picture Quality

 

When it comes to photographs, quality is always the key. You want a picture that is well lit and in perfect focus. If you settle on a DIY photo route, you may see some of your photos blurred, the angle is off or not well lit. This typically happens in a romantic mood where the light in the venue is not very bright. Renting a photo booth solves this in making sure you get professional quality photos you can keep and treasure. The type of camera is as important as lightning is in and around the booth something DIY may not be able to achieve.

 

Trouble Shoot

 

Electronics, no matter how high tech do sometimes encounter problems and cause panic when they stop working or run into problems and you don’t know what to do. When renting a photo booth, this normally comes with a professional attendant who will make sure that these electronics run as they should. They know what to look for and fix things when it doesn’t work. There is always a backup when all else fails. This ensures moments are not missed, and your guests are happy.

 

Cost-Efficient

 

Unless you are a photography enthusiast, chances are you only have a consumer camera and may not have all the professional tools needed to cover your event. By renting a photo booth, you can make sure that proper professional grade equipment is being used. You do not need to buy these tools for your own or purchase unnecessary items. Most of which would work out far more expensive than hiring. 

 

VIP Experience

 

Part of having pictures is encouraging your guests to use the photo booth. The staff are trained to help your guests have their photos taken, ensuring they have a fun filled time and get the most out of the equipment. The queue is managed accordingly and props are readily available. Guests receive a copy of their pictures immediately and can have unlimited shots taken. I mean, how cool is that? 

 

Saves You Time

 

Preparing the tools, setting up the equipment and planning a DIY photo booth, in general, can be very stressful if you are not familiar with how to do it. It can consume a lot of time and hassle just in the planning stage and eventually on the execution. It would be better to have the professionals do it for you to make sure that everything is ready when needed. This saves you time to focus on other important elements of your event.

 

Making events memorable is always the goal. This is the reason why we have a photo booth in the first place. Fun and smiles captured perfectly are what rentals are all about.

I’ve hired a Photographer; So why do I need a Photobooth?

Hiring a photographer to capture moments at your event is a great idea and in most cases an essential element, however having a photobooth will enhance your event on another level and will make it far more memorable. Milestone events such as weddings, birthdays, and parties become more engaging when you have a photobooth. Here are four reasons why a photo booth is a must-have when you already have a photographer.

Fun and magical moments are created

Your talented photographer will go around and capture moments as your guests smile in front of the camera and also grab those impromptu and candid moments. These are all great, but when you also have a photo booth, you are allowing your guests to create their own magical moments, often in a fun and and sometimes even a silly way. They have the option to have the people they would want to see with them in the picture with them and they become part of the creative process as they use props and wigs that are readily available with the photo booth. Your photographer will not be able to snap all the key ‘fun’ moments but the photo booth will certainly solve this.

Physical prints

In the digital age and use of social media, we want our photos to be available right away so we can share them!  But how many photos do you have on your smartphone that rarely get seen? If you’re like me you’ll have 1000’s! So when your guests receive a physical printed version of their fun moment it’s a wonderful souvenir and keepsake of the event, something that they and their friends look back at.  With a photo booth, all pictures are printed within 10 seconds after the photos are taken and your guests can also have high-quality digital copies available online or sent to their emails. This way, they have the option to edit the photos and share as they wish.

Adds entertainment value

A photographer would typically focus on the main casts of the event and that would usually be the couple in a wedding and their family, or the person celebrating the birthday. By adding a photo booth, your guests will also feel special. It addresses the boredom element as they can have their pictures taken when they want to and have fun whilst doing it with all the fun props. It becomes more memorable for them. Some photo booth’s also have an interactive element….for example; a magic mirror booth will have interactive animations and voiceovers that engage the users, telling them how hot (or not so hot) they look; encouraging them to smile and strike a pose as they strut their stuff as they go for the most fun picture of the event!

Memories to treasure

Whilst you will look back upon your photographer’s pictures with fond memories; the one’s that really make you smile and laugh out loud are the pictures of all your friends and guests having the best time, often looking quite ridiculous with their hats, wigs and glasses.  These are the moments that you don’t get to see throughout the event and having a beautiful guestbook photo album of all these wonderful moments, together with written messages from your guests is invaluable and memories that you will treasure.

 

 

Memories to treasure

 

So in a nutshell; having a photographer at your event is a great option and in some cases a must (most definitely at weddings). Adding a photo booth just gives another dimension and adds the fun factor. It showcase’s the event from your guests' perspective and becomes far more memorable for everyone.
