Photo booth props for a rustic-themed wedding
Photo booth props are a fun addition to any wedding and can help break the ice for guests who feel awkward posing for photos. If you're planning a rustic-themed wedding, there are plenty of options to choose from that will complement your theme. Here are some ideas for photo booth props to get you started:
Rustic Signs and Cutouts
Create rustic-themed signs and cutouts for your guests to pose with. These can include phrases like "Best Day Ever", "Just Married", or "Hooray". You can also incorporate rustic elements like wooden sticks, twine, and kraft paper. For a fun twist, include cutouts of childhood photos of the bride and groom, or go for larger-than-life cutouts of rustic-themed items like cowboy hats, horseshoes, or a barn.
Rustic Backdrops
A backdrop can really set the scene for your photo booth and enhance the overall rustic theme. Consider using a wooden backdrop, a burlap and tulle combination, or a rustic barn-themed backdrop. You can also create a floral effect by dipping the tips of coffee filters into multi-hued fabric dyes and affixing them to a foam board. Fairy lights or string lights can add a whimsical touch to your backdrop and complement the rustic theme.
Rustic Accessories
Encourage your guests to dress up with rustic-themed accessories. Provide items like cowboy hats, bandanas, and boots. You can also offer props like binoculars, old cameras, or vintage suitcases to pose with. If you want to add a touch of glamour, include some glitter or gold sequins. For instance, a gold sequin tablecloth can make a fantastic backdrop or table covering.
Natural Elements
Incorporate natural elements that complement the rustic theme. This could include items made from wood, such as wooden tealight candle holders, wooden cake toppers, or wooden chair signs for the bride and groom. You can also use artificial flowers and garlands, foliage string lights, or mini decorative wooden slices. These natural elements will add a charming, rustic touch to your photo booth.
DIY Props
If you're feeling crafty, you can make your own photo booth props. Download free printable templates or create your own designs. Cut out the shapes and glue them to lollipop sticks or wooden sticks for guests to hold. You can also provide a chalkboard or dry-erase board so that guests can create their own custom messages and strike a pose.
With these ideas in mind, you can create a fun and memorable photo booth experience that aligns perfectly with your rustic-themed wedding.

Props for a vintage or old Hollywood-themed wedding
For a vintage or old Hollywood-glam wedding, your photo booth props should be elegant and sophisticated, with a touch of glamour and a sense of theatre. Think red carpets, sparkling champagne, and iconic, timeless props that your guests will love. Here are some ideas to get you started:
For a simple yet effective prop, create a set of oversized, vintage-style playing cards. Use a large piece of stiff cardboard and paint or print out the classic playing card design, with a vintage twist. Go for a worn, aged look, and don't forget to add a decorative back design, perhaps featuring the wedding date. These can be held up by guests for a fun, unique photo.
Create a glamorous, oversized picture frame. Take a large, ornate gold or silver frame, something that evokes the art-deco style of old Hollywood. Paint and decorate it yourself for a personal touch. This can be held by guests or even leaned against the photo booth backdrop for a full-body shot. Add a vintage-style sign with a witty saying or the couple's names for an extra touch.
For a truly iconic prop, how about a red carpet and rope barrier? Set up a small section of red carpet, and rope off the area with a velvet rope and stand. Add a personalized, vintage-style sign, perhaps saying 'Paparazzi Only' or 'VIPs Only'. Guests will love striking a pose on the red carpet, and it will create a fun, unique atmosphere.
Evoke the glamour of old Hollywood with some simple, yet effective, sparkly props. Provide guests with oversized, sparkly rings, pearls, and long, glamorous gloves. For the men, offer top hats, bow ties, and monocles. These simple additions will transform your guests into vintage Hollywood stars and create some wonderful, memorable photos.
Finally, don't forget the power of a good backdrop. For a vintage or old Hollywood theme, a simple, elegant backdrop of a classic car, or a vintage movie poster works well. Alternatively, go for a glamorous, red-curtained stage, with a 'spotlight' shining on your guests. These props and backdrop ideas will surely provide a fun, unique, and memorable experience for your guests.

Props are a great way to highlight the theme of your wedding. If you're going for a celestial theme, here are some ideas for photo booth props to elevate your wedding photos and make them truly out-of-this-world:
Inflatable planets
Inflatable planets are a fun and interactive prop that your guests can pose with. They will surely bring some playfulness to your photos, and your guests are sure to have a blast pretending they're astronauts exploring distant planets.
Star Wars-themed props
If you and your partner are fans of the Star Wars franchise, why not incorporate that into your wedding photos? You can find Light Up Sabers online, which will add a vibrant pop of colour to your photos. You could also provide masks or other costume pieces from the movies for your guests to wear.
Masquerade masks
Provide partial masks that cover just the top of your guests' faces. These can be in a variety of styles and colours to suit your theme and will add an air of mystery and elegance to your photos.
Glittery paper cutouts
Glittery paper cutouts of stars, moons, and other celestial bodies will sparkle and shine in your photos. You could also provide cutouts of musical instruments to ensure everyone is part of the wedding band!
Balloons
Balloons with weights at the bottom make for great interactive props. You can find balloons with sweet messages like "Love is in the air" to add a romantic touch to your photos.
Confetti
Provide bowls of colourful confetti at the entrance to the photo booth. Your guests can throw it in the air to create joyful and celebratory photos that capture the happiness of your special day.

Using a backdrop to enhance your photo booth
The backdrop is an important element of your photo booth as it adds life to the photos and enhances the overall visual appeal. While a printed fabric backdrop is the most common option, you can get creative and make your own backdrop to elevate your photo booth setup.
- Chevron-inspired backdrop: Create a stylish backdrop by drawing chevron stripes on a black foam board using a glue stick and jumbo gold sequins.
- Colorful backdrop: Dip the tips of coffee filters into multi-hued fabric dyes and affix them to a foam board to create a floral effect.
- Simple backdrop: Hang a section of Kraft paper and paint it with gold stripes or polka dots for a more understated look.
- Sequin backdrop: A gold sequin tablecloth can double as a backdrop, adding a touch of glamour to your photos.
- Customised backdrop: If you're feeling creative, you can paint motifs related to your wedding theme or destination onto a foam core and cut them out with an X-acto knife. For example, if you're having a floral-themed wedding, you can create oversized flowers to attach to your backdrop.
- Thematic backdrop: Choose a backdrop that complements your wedding theme. For instance, if you're having a celestial-themed wedding, you can use inflatable planets as props and a starry backdrop.
- Interactive backdrop: Consider using a chalkboard backdrop that allows guests to write their own messages or draw fun illustrations.
When setting up your backdrop, ensure that you have sufficient space, ideally 5 feet across and 3 to 4 feet tall, to accommodate your guests in the shots. Clear the furniture and wall decorations from the chosen area, and use painter's tape to mark the space for the backdrop.
