What are some wedding photo ideas for guests?

Short answer

Wedding photo ideas for guests include a photo booth with props, a polaroid guest book, a disposable camera on each table, or a designated selfie spot. These let guests capture their own memories and add to your collection.

Guests love to take their own photos, so give them easy ways to do it. A photo booth with hats, signs and frames is always popular. You can ask guests to stick their prints in a guest book with a message. Disposable cameras on tables let people snap candid shots throughout the day. You collect them afterwards and get them developed.

A selfie station with good lighting and a branded backdrop works well. You could also set up a hashtag for social media and display a live feed on a screen. Some couples leave instant cameras with a note asking guests to take two photos, one for them and one for you.

If you have a photographer, tell them you want guest photos too. They can wander during the drinks reception and capture natural moments. For the group shots, ask your photographer to take a few with guests holding signs or confetti. Remember to check with your venue about any restrictions on cameras or flash, especially during the ceremony. Some religious buildings do not allow photography, so always check with your place of worship first.
