Cheapest photo booth hire?

Most of the 'proper' booths that print out the pics for the guests etc and have someone running it have been around £400ish! how about asking your Tog if there is anyway they can set one up? x

Ours was £400 for 4 hours and that was the cheapest I found. Was worth every penny though

Thanks that's not bad. Cheapest I have so far is over £500 for 3 hours, plus set up and dismantle fees.

Could you let me know which company you used pinky please? I am JM on the fb 2012 group, or PM me here if you don't want to post here! Thanks.

That's a shame. I was hoping they might be cheaper too!

Ok dug out a leaflet from a wedding fayre we went to and i cant remember the exact price but im sure this company were cheaper than £400...

their website gives NOTHING away so i wouldn't even bother looking at that but maybe ring them and ask as i'm sure they were cheaper!

this one is more 'video and photo' but i remember them being reasonable as well so may be worth emailing them for a quote...

We are around the £450 mark for our photo booth including delivery/dismantling etc to North West / Cheshire but your getting the best in the industry. There are plenty of budget booths available out there but like everything, you get what you pay for. Print quality, mass produced aluminium frames, webcams instead of dslr cameras, long print times, cheap props, cheap albums/guestbook etc are just some of the cons with going cheap. See http://www.events-hire.co.uk/ for more details.

Were using the amazing hire group but there based in Leeds. We got a package deal for photobooth for 4 hours, chocolate fountain for 120 for 4 hours close up mind magician for 2 hours, and a wishing well for £1000. Including all set up dismantle and people working on the booth and fountain.

Look on gumtree they have loads on offer on there.

Check out ebay - I had a look but there wasn't anyone near me as they charged mileage

I know wowcher have regular offers for photobooths on their site. Usually for 250-269.

Worth a try x

As always wowcher,groupon and ebay are risky, we have all seen the posts on here where a company have let the couple down, you might be lucky . Make sure you do your research.

If a company is willing to drop their price by 50%, ask yourself why? Maybe nobody is booking.

We get asked daily to match other companies silly prices. If a company charges "£250-£269", their is literally NO profit at all after media/ink, album, usb stick, wages, depreciation, fuel. Not to mention all the other overheads, vehicle insurance, public/employee liability insurance, phone line, card processing equipment, marketing, internet, website upkeep and so on.

I had one and its the one thing that I really wish I hadnt bothered with!! Everyone was too busy on the dance floor to bother and the guy didnt seem too bothered about getting people involveed was hugely disappointed and wish I had spent the money on something else or as my youngest daughter said "at least you will know for next time mom"!!!!

We are looking for a photo booth around bristol, but was tempted to make our own....

my fiancee is a bit geek and he thinks he could make one which is quite tempting (hes pretty good at making stuff!)

has anyone made any before, or have any plans/designs for one?
