Our lives are wrapped up in these fantastic events that change the course of our lives. We live through these cycles from birth, puberty, marriage, and death and experience their effects.

DIY Photo Booth
DIY has taken over the events industry and home décor department because it is cheaper, personalized, and stylish. You need some DIY ideas to make a cheap photo booth for your wedding, and that starts by viewing different fabric display stands.
The Fabric you choose has to fit in with your wedding theme, so don’t choose a color that doesn’t match your gowns or the location’s lighting. Attention to detail will be crucial in assembling your photo booth and ensuring its cost-effectiveness.
Choose the booth location
You need to find the perfect location for your booth because there is no need to have one too far away from the venue. To ensure your booth is cheaper, you need to find a location that doesn’t need many modifications.
You could have it next to a beautiful garden, and all you need to add would be some fabric to create a beautiful display. The space and aesthetics of the booth matter, and the new blends with nature have inspired many couples to have something similar.
You could also choose a location with good lighting and give your photos a better look. A location with good lighting will be cost-effective because you will not use LED lights to light up the area. A location with good lighting creates awareness, creating stories that your guests will never forget.
Create a Photobooth backdrop
There are crafty photoshoot backdrops you can create to make your weddings memorable. The all-white backdrop may seem cliché, but designing your backdrop with affordable material is highly recommended during weddings.
You can get materials such as paper plates, streamers, fairy light backdrops, taped flowers, and creased tin foil. These materials are easily accessible, and they can make your photo booth produce the type of memories you envisaged.
You also have to get creative to create an affordable backdrop because cheap materials may not look good for a wedding. You need to know which materials blend perfectly with each other to create a cheap but beautiful photo booth.
TeePee frame
An example of a beautiful backdrop would be a TeePee frame. All you’ll need are lace curtains and some rugs and chairs to make it comfy. Note: Your wedding needs to be outdoor to create such a setting event.
Rustic backdrop
Use two doors and paint them to the color of your liking and buy a wicker room divider. Top up with some flowers and vines at the top and have a sofa at the front. With these accessories, you already have your photo booth from an assortment of easily available goods.
Book backdrop
We all know couples find each other in mysterious places, and some find each other in libraries. You can find second-hand books and stick them on a pallet for the literary folk. That will surely create a memorable photo booth, plus you can invite your mutual friends from the book club and make some memorable memories.
Brick wall
Very cheap to create because the wall is already there, you need to add flowers, have some globe lights and have candles in big jars. This DIY photo booth shows you don’t need to move heaven and earth to have a memorable wedding.
Personalized Chalkboard
You can get three chalkboards, hinge them together and have them personalized with your information. Your wedding dates and names could be displayed there, making people at your wedding remember which wedding they took those photos of.
Fairy light curtains
These are simple to create because all you need would be to buy some lights, cover them behind the curtain and take those photos. Someone would have to check whether the lighting is good for your camera and adjust them properly.
Photobooth Props
You could buy or make photo booth props to make your booth stand out during the wedding. You can make hats, signs, glasses, and signs for your booth for your guests to enjoy while taking photos. You could accessorize these props with painted signs, swings, and chairs to create an affordable booth.
A prop like a swing would be easy to make. You can wrap the swings with flowers to make them more colorful and intentional for the couple and the guests. You can also check Bespoke Bride’s photo booth props.
Final thoughts
Creating affordable photo booths are simple means of making an event colorful and enjoyable for your guests. The materials for the DIY booths are easily sourced, and they are durable for the duration of the wedding.
The best way to handle a wedding is by budgeting and saving. The events within the wedding do not come cheap. You have to plan things with intention and foreknowledge of how things could be within the wedding, and creating a photo booth should be among the things you visualize.
Creating a cheap booth opens room for creativity, and your wedding needs to have all the pomp and color it can get. Go to your favorite store and purchase materials you will use to create the perfect photo booth for your wedding.
