Should You Have a Photo Booth at Your Austin Wedding

We all know by now that photo booths are all the rage at weddings, but are they really worth the hype? Here are our top 3 reasons why we think so:

Memories - Let's face it: No matter how good your photographer is, the odds are they won't get a photo of everyone who made it to your big day. A photo booth goes a long way in helping to capture a snap of each guest. 

Wedding Favors - Long gone are the days when guests cared about c
hachkies. You can bet that most favors these days will end up, dust-covered, in a drawer or in the trash. Photo strips on the other hand will be proudly displayed on your guests' fridges, desks, and memory boards. Don't get us started on the digital photos... Those are guaranteed to be all over Insta, FB, and Twitter.

Entertainment - Whether it's keeping the kids occupied during toasts or hedging the chance of Uncle Rick doing the worm on the dance floor, a photo booth provides guests with options. I am often asked, "won't a photo booth be a distraction?" NO! No one can dance for three hours straight, and it helps your dancing-adverse guests get out of their seats.

Pixster Photo Booths Austin Achieves 100 5-star Reviews

Pixster Photo Booths, the number one photo booth rental company in San Diego and and most recently expanding to Austin, TX, recently surpassed 100 reviews from highly satisfied clients on their San Diego Yelp page. What makes these reviews stand out is that they are all five-star. These reviews span from April 2013, just a month after the company got its start in the wedding and entertainment circuit, to their most recent review posted in June 2015.

These reviews highlight clients’ favorite aspects of having Pixster’s open air photobooths at their events, which range from weddings, to corporate events, to birthday parties, to school and university functions. These reviews not only allow for transparency for other potential clients to see, but give a clear snapshot of the exceptional service and outstanding consistency that Pixster has provided since Day One. In an uprising trend where photo booths are the hottest vendor to have at any event, Pixster’s Yelp reviews raise the bar for clients’ standards when they are looking for a photo booth rental company. In addition, with so many other photo booth vendors joining the market in Southern California and Austin, it can be overwhelming for clients to narrow down their options. Pixster’s milestone of reaching 100 five-star reviews aids in relieving the stress of picking a photo booth vendor.

However, Yelp isn’t the only review site where clients can praise Pixster for their customer service and exceptionally high-quality photo booths. Other bridal review sites such as WeddingWire and The Knot display five-star reviews from ecstatic clients who have used Pixster’s services. With the combined reviews from these three websites, Pixster boasts over a 99% satisfaction rating from customers and guests who have used their enclosed or open air photo booth in the last two years.

With Pixster gaining much more notoriety and reception from fulfilled and happy clients and other partners, such as Comicon in San Diego and Petco Park, it paves the way for the company’s goals for this upcoming year and beyond. Although their new office in Austin, TX is set to open August 4, 2015, owner McLain Harvey has already had clients express interest in booking Pixster Photo Booths for events in the Lone Star State as well as reviews submitted to their Austin Yelp page.


The photo booth rental scene  is booming and expanding across the country and Pixster is keeping up with the ever-changing and growing market. With 1,200 events projected for the 2015 year, Pixster remains on track to meet their target.

Enclosed Photo Booth vs. Open Air Photo Booth


Ahh, photo booths. They are rapidly becoming a crowd favorite at any event to have. Birthday parties, holiday parties, corporate events, weddings, school dances, you name it. Bring a photo booth to a crowd of people and there will be guaranteed smiles and fun all around.


The real question lies in whether to book a more traditional, enclosed style photo booth, or go with a more contemporary, sleek open air photo booth. Photos from a photo booth are great keepsakes for your guests and you can be sure that they won’t end up in the trash or a dusty desk drawer. While both enclosed photo booths and open air photo booths accomplish the same goals of creating high-quality images, we’re here to weigh in on the pros and cons of choosing which style of photo booth you want at your event.


The enclosed photo booth is a nice way to bring back memories of sitting in a photo booth at the mall and taking silly pictures with your friends. While it does give you more privacy and give you the confidence to be more silly in your poses and prop choices, you might want to be aware of the space it may take up in your venue or home. Another obvious consideration is the the enclosed photo booth fits a significantly less number of people in one picture compared to the open air photo booth. So while you may get a cute picture of you and your hubby or an endearing photo of you and your parents, you may not get a fun snap of you and your bridesmaids or your college buddies.


While we do supply enclosed photo booths for our clients, we specialize in open air photo booths, and for good reasons! For one, with our open air photo booths, you are able to fit up to 15 people in one photo, and sometimes more! This allows for everyone to be in one picture altogether and it cuts down on wait time, as the enclosed photo booth can only fit 2-4 people in one picture. In addition, our open air photo booths are much more compact and discrete. They fit into tighter quarters and set-up and take down is faster than setting up and breaking down an enclosed photo booth. An open air photo booth also allows other guests to see what’s happening inside the booth, encouraging them to jump in themselves!

At the end of the day, it comes down to a matter of taste. The enclosed photo booth is a classic product to have at your event, but the open air photo booth is discrete and modern twist on a traditional pastime. Whichever booth you pick, we guarantee that you’ll have memories from your event that will last a lifetime!
