Both booths keep guests entertained and send them home with something to share, but they produce very different things. An open-air photo booth makes prints and photos. A 360 video booth makes short slow-motion videos. Here’s how to choose, or whether to have both.
Side by side
| Open-air photo booth | 360 video booth | |
|---|---|---|
| What guests get | Photos, GIFs, boomerangs and short videos, plus printed photos | Slow-motion 360° videos with music and a custom overlay |
| Keepsake | A physical print on your custom template | A video guests share right away |
| Best for | Every age, including grandparents, and a guest-book album | High energy, groups, and moments for social media |
| Space | Compact, set up with a backdrop | Needs a clear area around the platform |
| Staffing | Open-air setup that guests step right into | An attendant guides every guest |
| Afterward | Prints in guests’ hands the same night | A private online gallery of every video |
Choose the open-air photo booth if…
- You want prints, for guests to take home or add to a guest book.
- Your guests span every age, from grandparents to kids.
- Your venue has limited floor space.

Choose the 360 booth if…
- Your crowd loves the dance floor and social media.
- You want a showpiece moment, like the bridal party piling onto the platform.
- You’d rather have shareable videos than prints.

Why many couples book both
They do different jobs. The photo booth gives every guest a print to take home, while the 360 booth creates the videos everyone shares that night. With both, guests move between them, so neither gets a long line. Because we’re also your DJ/MC, we can announce each booth at the right moment and keep it busy all night.
Placement tips
- Near cocktail hour, guests use the booth right away while they’re dressed up and fresh.
- Near the dance floor, the booth keeps its energy later in the night.
- Ask your venue coordinator about power and floor space before the day. We’ll confirm the rest with them.
