A wedding photo booth is one of the most loved additions to any reception — and one of the most talked-about after the big day. While you’re off taking formal portraits with your photographer, your guests are entertained, laughing and making memories of their own. Everyone walks away with a personalised printed keepsake from your wedding: something to stick on the fridge and smile at for years.
Photo Booth Club provides wedding photo booth hire across Johannesburg, Pretoria, Centurion, the Hartbeespoort area, Cape Town and all of Gauteng. Whether you call it wedding photo booth hire or a wedding photo booth rental, our packages start from R2,450 for 2 hours and include everything — custom-designed strips, unlimited sessions, fun props, a professional attendant and a private online gallery of every photo taken on your day.
How Much Does a Wedding Photo Booth Cost?
Our wedding photo booth hire is all-inclusive, with three simple options:
- 2 hours — R2,450: ideal for smaller receptions or covering the cocktail hour.
- 3 hours — R3,350: our most popular wedding package, covering the cocktail hour and the first part of the reception.
- 4 hours — R3,800: for larger weddings that want the booth running deep into the evening.
Every price includes unlimited sessions, instant printed strips, a custom strip design, a backdrop, props, a professional attendant, a fridge magnet, a USB of all photos and a private online gallery. There are no hidden setup, design or travel fees within Gauteng. For a full breakdown, see our photo booth pricing page or our guide to how much photo booth hire costs.
Why Couples Choose a Photo Booth for Their Wedding
There are a hundred decisions to make for your wedding. Here’s why a photo booth consistently makes the shortlist — and stays on it:
- Guest entertainment during the cocktail hour. The gap between ceremony and reception is notoriously awkward. A photo booth gives guests something to do, breaks the ice between families who don’t know each other yet, and fills the room with energy before you even arrive.
- A wedding favour that doesn’t get left on the table. Personalised printed strips with your names and wedding date are something guests genuinely keep. They end up on fridges, in wallets and in frames — not in the bin.
- The photographer can’t be everywhere. Your wedding photographer is focused on you. The photo booth captures the candid, silly, real moments between your guests — the uncle doing an impression, the bridesmaids doing a group shot, the flower girl in the giant glasses. Those photos become some of the most cherished from the day.
- Social media sharing built in. Every session includes digital sharing via email and QR code. Guests can post to Instagram and WhatsApp before they’ve even left the reception. Your wedding becomes an event people talk about.
- It fits any wedding style. From a formal black-tie gala in Sandton to a relaxed garden wedding in the Cradle of Humankind, our booths and backdrops are fully customisable. We work with your theme, colour palette and aesthetic.
Our Wedding Photo Booths
Inflatable Photo Booth — The Showstopper
Our inflatable photo booth is unlike anything most wedding guests have ever seen. The fully enclosed inflatable structure creates a private, immersive experience — guests step inside, the booth fills with light, and they have the space to be completely themselves. At weddings, it becomes a destination. Guests queue up to get their turn, and it generates the kind of buzz that carries a reception.
One of our couples put it best: “One of the guests said she had been to so many weddings and never seen one before. It was a huge hit — everyone loved it.”
The inflatable booth works beautifully both indoors and outdoors, sets up in under 30 minutes and requires only a standard power outlet. It occupies approximately 4m x 4m of floor space.
Social / Selfie Photo Booth — Sleek and Versatile
Our open-air social photo booth is elegant, modern and fits seamlessly into any venue. The touchscreen interface is intuitive — guests tap, pose, print and share within seconds. The social booth is ideal for venues with limited space, outdoor receptions and weddings where you want the booth to blend into the decor rather than dominate the room. Custom backdrops are available to match your wedding theme.
What’s Included in Every Wedding Package
We don’t believe in hidden extras. Every wedding photo booth hire package includes:
- Unlimited photo sessions for the full duration of your hire
- Instant printed photo strips — guests take theirs home on the night
- Fridge magnet keepsake from each session
- Custom-designed strip artwork matching your wedding theme, colours and names
- Fun props box — hats, glasses, signs, boas and more
- Professional on-site attendant for the full hire period
- Private password-protected online gallery (ready within 24 hours)
- USB flash drive with every photo from the night
- Digital sharing via email and QR code so guests can post immediately
Wedding Photo Booth Ideas to Make Yours Unforgettable
Couples often ask how to get the most out of their booth. These are the wedding photo booth ideas we see work again and again:
- A custom backdrop that matches your theme. Floral walls, white drapes, greenery and sequin backdrops are the most popular for weddings. We can match your florist’s palette or your décor.
- Personalised photo strips as your wedding favour. Add your names, wedding date, monogram or hashtag. Guests keep them, so your favour doubles as a lasting memento.
- A guest book of every strip. With our custom photo book extra, each session prints twice — one for the guest, one stuck into an album beside a handwritten message to you. You go home with a book of everyone who celebrated with you.
- Themed props. From black-tie elegance to playful and colourful, we match the props box to the feel of your day.
- A wedding hashtag on every print. It nudges guests to share their photos and pulls your whole wedding’s social media together in one place.
Custom Wedding Photo Strip Designs
Every wedding photo booth hire includes a fully custom-designed photo strip — no generic templates. Our designers work with your wedding colours, fonts and aesthetic to create a strip layout that feels like it belongs at your wedding. You’ll receive design proofs before your event and we’ll revise until you’re happy. Browse our photo booth gallery to see real wedding strip designs.
Popular wedding strip design elements include: your names and wedding date, a floral border matching your flowers, your wedding hashtag, your venue name, and a monogram or crest. These strips double as a wedding favour that guests actually want to keep.
When to Have the Photo Booth at Your Wedding
The most common — and most effective — placement is during the cocktail hour and into the reception. This is typically when guests are most relaxed, the drinks are flowing and people are in the mood to be silly. We recommend booking for 3 hours to cover both the cocktail hour and the first two hours of the reception.
Some couples also run the booth during the dinner hour — guests visit between courses. Others prefer to bring it in later in the evening when the dance floor opens. We’re flexible and will work around your run sheet.
