While both add a ton of value to a wedding, a photobooth and a second photographer serve two different purposes.
A Photobooth is an interactive experience that doubles as a wedding favor. It gives your guests a reason to get up, let loose, and walk away with a keepsake.
A Second Photographer helps maximize coverage. They move freely around the event to capture candid, unposed moments throughout the night.
Key Factors to Help You Choose:
Existing Media Coverage: If you already have a main photographer and a videographer, a second photographer might be redundant. A photobooth introduces a completely new activity for your guests.
Venue Space: A standard open-air photobooth requires a clear 10' x 10' footprint near a power source. A second photographer requires zero floor space.
Advance Setup: If your photobooth is located inside the main event room, we recommend setting it up before your guests arrive to avoid any disruption during dinner or speeches. To accommodate this, we offer an idle/waiting rate of $50/hour so the booth sits ready but quiet until it's time to open.

To ensure smooth event flow, safety, and a opportunity for every guest to experience the booth, we recommend 1 hour of Photobooth rental for every 50 guests.
While our baseline packages feature a 2-hour minimum rental, the ideal duration ultimately mirrors your guest count. For larger Toronto receptions, keeping the booth active throughout the night offers maximum entertainment value.Getting started is simple.

Having a photobooth during cocktail hour captures your guests while hair, makeup, and attire are flawless. It serves as an upscale icebreaker as well as a way to bring people together. If required, the booth can pause during dinner (standard idle fees apply).
Alternatively, you can launch the booth the moment the dance floor opens to capture the peak energy of your night. Integrating the photobooth with the party dynamic ensures continuous entertainment, fun guest engagement and delivers the most memorable experiences.
We offer a range of solutions designed to meet your needs—whether you're just getting started or scaling something bigger. Everything is tailored to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

A typical photobooth setup occupies a 10’x10’ footprint and requires access to a dedicated electrical outlet. With this is in mind here are the best 2 locations for a photobooth at your reception.
1. The Lobby or Overflow Room. Placing the booth in the foyer creates an upscale welcome attraction. This establishes two distinct entertainment zones, giving guests freedom to roam while allowing for an invisible setup and teardown that never disturbs your reception.
2. Inside the Banquet Hall. If space is limited, the main hall is your next best option. To avoid disruptions, schedule the setup before guests arrive. This early arrival usually incurs an idle fee, but ensures a flawless event flow.

A standard open-air photobooth requires 1 hour to fully set up and calibrate.
However, setup times vary based on venue logistics. A ground-floor space with direct loading dock access is much faster to set up than an upper-level ballroom that requires freight elevators or navigating long hallways.

Coordination: Two weeks before your event, we connect with you, your wedding planner, or the venue representative to finalize load-in paths, power access and floor plan
