In this blog post, we’ll go over key features of the HP Sprocket Photobooth, what makes it the best photo booth for weddings, and how to get the most use out of it on your big day.
Let’s get started!
Get to Know the HP Sprocket Photobooth
The newest item in the HP Sprocket product lineup, the HP Sprocket Photobooth lets you instantly take and share fun, customized photos on 3x4” sticky-backed photo paper.
The portable photo booth comes pre-loaded with 250+ frames (and plenty of wedding-themed ones!), so guests can easily select their favorite frames and filters on the integrated LCD tablet and adjust the built-in flash and ring light for a live view of their photo.
All that’s left to do is pose, snap, and print!
Why Use an HP Sprocket Photobooth at Your Wedding
The beauty of a wedding photo booth lies in its versatility – whether it’s a big event with 500+ guests or an intimate ceremony with only your nearest and dearest, a portable photo booth can be a meaningful, powerful tool for promoting fun, creating lasting memories, and more.
Instant Fun
Want to make sure everyone has fun at your wedding – from your five-year-old nephew to your eighty-five-year-old grandma?
A wedding photo booth will keep guests of all ages entertained. It’s also a great alternative for people who don’t like to (or can’t) dance.
Your guests will love letting their hair down and taking silly photos as they get to know each other in line and pass the time waiting for your formal pictures to be taken.
Best of all, the pictures are ready in an instant, so you can look back on the fun immediately instead of waiting months for the professional ones to come in!
Capture Every Moment
No one’s ever gotten the photos back from their wedding photographer and thought “Man, I wish there were fewer pictures of my guests.”
The fact is, that while your photographer will get hundreds of beautiful shots, they’ll mostly be focused on you, your wedding party, and the dance floor – a wedding photo booth offers a whole different perspective.
It’s the perfect place for everyone to let loose and enjoy themselves, revealing genuine, natural smiles that your photographer might miss. Now, every guest who wants to be in photos will feel included – even if the photographer doesn’t snap a single photo of them.
Lasting Memories
The best way to make sure memories from your wedding live on is with dozens of photos from the event.
Every time you and your guests look back on the photos, you’ll instantly be reminded of the good times you shared on your special day.
These little mementos make the perfect wedding favor, serving as a tangible reminder of the event that will live on every time they see it on their fridge, in their wallets, or on their desks at work.
Guests can even download the photos to their phones and share them on social media with your wedding hashtag!
Easy Setup and Use
There are so many moving parts involved in planning a wedding – from choosing your dress to picking a venue, caterer, color scheme, and beyond.
Save time where you can with an easy-to-set-up and use wedding photo booth.
Thanks to its intuitive design, the HP Sprocket Photobooth is super easy to set up and operate. Simply place it on a table or mount it to a wall, load the paper, connect to Wi-Fi, and start snapping!
And, with the notification app, you can easily stay on top of updates, paper status, and more from your phone – no constant monitoring necessary.
Cost Savings
Not only is wedding planning complicated – it’s also expensive.
Luckily, the HP Sprocket Photobooth can help you save big.
For around the same price as renting a standard wedding photo booth for a couple of hours, you can buy an all-in-one photo booth with no time limit that can be reused at all your future events – from birthday parties to baby showers, holidays, and beyond.
Getting the Most out of the HP Sprocket Photobooth for Weddings
Making sure you get the most out of the HP Sprocket Photobooth at your wedding is as easy as choosing a location, setting everything up, and letting your creativity run wild.
Choose a Location
First things first, decide where you want your wedding photo booth setup to be.
We recommend placing it somewhere with high visibility and a lot of foot traffic – for example, near the bar or dance floor.
Be careful, though, to avoid super busy areas such as near the food. Wedding photo booths tend to garner a lot of interest, and you want to ensure there is ample space for the line that is sure to form.
You’ll also want to make sure the area has good lighting (though this can always be supplemented with the built-in flash and ring light), is near an outlet, and has a good Wi-Fi signal.
If you’re not going to use any kind of photo backdrop, you may want to lean into the venue – look for a picturesque nature scene, beautiful brick wall, or unique door, and let it serve as a natural backdrop for your photos.
Finally, make sure to draw attention to it – hang up signs that match your décor, encourage your wedding party to get involved and start the fun, or even have the DJ/emcee announce start/end times.
Customize Settings
Next, follow the steps here to customize your event.
The photo booth for weddings comes preloaded with over a dozen wedding frames, but you can also browse other categories to find basic frames that might match your color scheme.
Don’t forget to give your event a title and caption that will appear on every photo – this could be the date, a custom wedding hashtag, or something as simple as your names.
Add Props
No wedding photo booth is complete without props and a fun backdrop.
When it comes to props, you can’t go wrong with the classics – anything from oversized glasses to feather boas, cowboy hats, and thought bubbles.
But feel free to think outside of the box, too, whether that’s custom signs with your names and wedding hashtag or cutouts of your face so everyone can get a picture with you, even when you’re not there.
Your backdrop is a great opportunity to get creative, too. Hang some curtains, make a wall with love quotes on it, get a neon sign with your wedding hashtag, or even DIY a rustic backdrop with wooden pallets or reclaimed wood.
Get Creative
Last but certainly not least, don’t be afraid to get creative with your photos!
Including a guest book next to the photo booth is a great way to preserve memories from the event, as guests stick their adhesive-backed photos down and write personal messages that will live on forever.
You can even use the photos to create personalized thank-you notes. Simply download all the photos from the event, print them out, and add your message to the back for easy, meaningful thank-you notes your guests will love!
