Why add a photo booth to a holiday party
The best holiday parties give people something to do together besides standing around with a drink. A photo booth does exactly that. Coworkers who rarely talk end up squeezed into one frame, cousins pile in with grandparents, and everyone leaves with a keepsake of the night.
For companies, it also doubles as a gift. Every strip carries your logo and a holiday message, so guests take your brand home with them in a way they actually want to keep.
Holiday party photo booth ideas
- Design the strip for the season. Choose festive colors, add a holiday motif and finish with your company name or family names and the year. Browse real examples in our template gallery.
- Pick the right wording. Happy Holidays suits most workplaces, while Merry Christmas suits family gatherings. We design either.
- Choose a backdrop with sparkle. Gold and silver sequin backdrops photograph beautifully in holiday lighting, and a custom backdrop (+$199) can carry a winter or red-and-green theme.
- Put a 360 video booth on the dance floor. Slow-motion spins turn the office party into the clip everyone shares on Monday.
- Add an audio guest book phone (+$99). Guests record holiday wishes for the host or the family, a keepsake you can replay every December.
- Print 4x6 for gifting (+$49). A larger print tucks easily into a holiday card or gift bag.
- Add an enclosed booth (+$150). A private, curtained booth gets guests to loosen up and capture candid moments away from the crowd.
