So, its time to find a photo booth vendor for your big day. We can't agree more. A photo booth is the perfect sideshow for your festivities. Lets face it, you are going to have a lot of guests who will be walking or standing around at your reception and not all of them like to dance. So, to have another form of entertainment will make many people at your wedding reception extremely happy. A professional photo booth is the ultimate in terms of an entertainment outlet. Picture your wedding guests laughing their heads off as they get silly in the photo booth with costumes and props. And one of the really awesome things about a photo booth is that it has the ability to get even total strangers to all of a sudden interact and get to know each other. This is the kind of entertainment where true memory making happens. And whats more, you and your guests will be walking away with a photo strip keepsake while also creating a memory book for you and your fiance. There are several factors you will want to consider when it comes time to seek out a professional photo booth provider. There are some very high quality photo booth providers in the Toledo area, you just need to make sure that the one you work with is one of those. This guide should help lead you to a photo booth provider that will keep the good times rolling throughout your wedding reception.

So, what is the first part of your mission? To do some research where you come up with a list of potential photo booth providers who you will want to interview. We suggest you begin by doing a Google search for “photo booths in the Toledo area.” As you find potential candidates, read through their website specifically checking out their background and experience. Also, look at pictures of the booths they say they offer. When you see one that looks promising, jot down their name and contact information. Once you have at least 3 promising candidates, contact each one and setup a time and place to meet to discuss the possibility of contracting with them. Another potential source of candidates are the wedding vendors that you have already hired. The wedding world can be a very small world in some ways and there are a myriad of connections so there is a very good chance one of your hired vendors might have a recommendation. Also, if you know of anyone in your circle of family and friends who just got married, you can ask them if they rented a photo booth for their wedding. However you end up accumulating candidates, setup your interviews and don't neglect to ask some very pointed questions that should reveal who you should hire.

Take some notes based on the questions we list below or take this guide with you to each interview. Have a frank discussion about their experience. Find out how long they been in the photo booth business..On this front, you need to make sure that they have worked several weddings. Otherwise, your guests might not have the intended experience you had hoped at your reception. It's always a good idea to actually look at image from the events of the photo booths that they are researching References are also very important. Ask for at least three references and do not neglect to check out each one. Find out if they were completely satisfied with their experience. How will they get the booth to your reception? How far apart is your reception venue and the place where the booth will be coming from? Remember, time matters and you need to make sure that a vendor can have the booth at your reception to setup in enough time to have it ready by the time your guests start arriving. Make sure that they are licensed and insured because you never know what might go wrong. Find out if an attendant will be there the whole time. We highly recommend it just to make sure nothing goes wrong or if it does there will be someone there to take care of it. Ask what happens if something does go wrong with the booth. Make sure they are using high end equipment. The grade of the camera and the photo printer is very important because you want everyone's experience to be first rate. You do not want a booth equipped with a web cam and an ink jet printer. Another aspect to consider is whether the images are posted online in a website gallery or given to you physically. Of course, rental price is important. But keep in mind that price is not the only factor and if you really like one vendor but they happen to be more expensive, don't let that be a dis-qualifier.
