Add your names, monogram or wedding date to create a custom backdrop
By Anne Chertoff
Instead of renting a carnival-style photobooth create your own with a creative backdrop and fun props. A great wedding keepsake for the couple, and fun favor for guests, a photobooth will entertain your family and friends during your cocktail hour. You can also create a craft station encouraging guests to paste their photos in a scrapbook and decorate their page with glitter, stickers and other embellishments.
DIY photobooth options include throwing a decorative sheet over a wire or wallpapering a wooden board, but if you’re looking for something a little less DIY, beau-coup.com offers six designs that couples can personalize with their names, monogram and wedding date. Each are available in 13 color combinations.
As for props, you can find a wide range of photobooth props on etsy.
