Great “themed” props ideas may be a bit out there for some brides, but can be used as a starting place for you to think up your very own photo booth ideas.
1. Western
Purchase a few children’s Pony-On-A-Stick toys, a bunch of huge cowboy hats, fake mustaches – both the press-on stickers & the mustache on a stick kind, a few prop guns, and some bandanas. Yee-Haw.
2. Royalty
Pretending to be majestic Kings and Queens will surely inspire tons of amazing photos! Pick up a handful of tiaras, a few septors, robes, crowns and anything else that screams royalty. If you want, you can include jester hats, rolled fancy scrolls and gaudy custom jewelry, for a bit of variety.
We also highly recommend picking up some “thrones” for guests to sit on. You can either search around for gaudy seats at local garage sales, or find two chairs that you are willing to sacrifice and spray paint them.
3. Tub Time
Find an old bathtub or create a large cardboard cut-out of one. The plus side of having a cardboard bath is that you can make several, and guests can easily pick them up and pose with them.
Then, buy a few brightly-hued bath poofs, colored empty shampoo bottles, rubber duckies, shower caps, goggles, toy boats, and one or two long-handled bath brushes. Guests will have tons of fun!
4. Beauty Pageant
Buy lots of plastic tiaras, a prop microphone, batons and a flashlight (to use as a “spotlight”).
Then make lots of sashes and select a theme for your sash titles. You can use the states (Miss California), traditional awards (Miss Congeniality), or something else entirely. There’s a lot of room for personal style/humor and inside jokes.
5. Beach Party
Buy some blue fabric and cut out “waves” to use on a wall as a background, or pick up a cheap inflatable pool.
Then, pull together huge floppy hats, crazy sunglasses (the bigger, the better), sand toys, pool noodles, arm floaties, and anything else you would take to the beach. Having a large beach ball, a lawn chair (with a colorful beach umbrella) and a few empty sunscreen bottles makes it easy for guests to come up with funny poses, and even more hilarious photos.
6. Halloween Grab-Box
Pick up crazy and random boas, masks, props and whatever else you think your guests would like to pose with. These types of items are often on clearance, or can be found at a dollar store.
Happy Hunting!
