Selecting your wedding colors is an important design choice. Bringing those hues into your photo booth props helps create cohesion and brings your theme to life in pictures.
Pick primary and secondary colors
Start by selecting 1-2 primary wedding colors and 1-2 secondary colors. Your invitations, flowers, and clothing will be predominantly in primary colors. Secondary hues play a supporting role – think accent décor.
- Primary colors – Examples: Navy blue, coral, purple
- Secondary colors – Examples: Blush, mint green, gold
Use these core colors for major photo booth props like:
- Main backdrop curtain
- Prominent parts of silly hats, masks, glasses
- Painted signs, frames, and large accessories
Then utilize secondary colors for smaller accent props like:
- Feather boas, leis, tiny flags
- Mini top hats, bow ties, fabric flowers
- Small superhero capes, magic wands
Pull in neutrals like black, white, and wood tones to balance bright colors.
Match prop style to wedding style
The props you select also need to fit the style and formality of your wedding. A glittery princess theme deserves playful, whimsical props. A rustic country wedding calls for vintage, natural accessories.
Formal wedding style – elegant props
- Crystal photo frames, pearls, tiaras
- White gloves, feather fans, top hats
- Flower leis, greenery garlands
Casual wedding style – quirky props
- Chalkboard signs, giant emoji props
- Neon sunglasses, crazy wigs, Hawaiian leis
- Inflatable guitars, masks, funny hats
You want guests to have fun, but not go so wild props distract from your classy affair. Find the right balance to match your wedding personality. snap-booth.com gives more information about the service.
Group props by color
Guests can create color-coordinated looks when it’s time to grab props. Group props into stations by color.
For example:
- Navy station – Sailor hats, nautical props
- Blush station – Feather boas, flower crowns
- Gold station – Metallic frames, crowns
Provide a “rainbow” section with multi-colored accessories too. Offering organized prop stations makes it simpler for guests to accessorize in your wedding hues. With a little coordination and creativity, your wedding colors shine through lively photo booth props. It creates a cohesive, customized experience that guests will love! Consider tying your photo booth into other elements like wedding favor bags, drinks, or desserts that match. Adding details featuring your special hues will enhance the cohesiveness of your event décor.
Here are some additional tips for incorporating your wedding palette:
- Add ribbon, flowers, or decor in the main wedding colors to the photo booth. It visually ties the booth into your decor.
- Print some photo strips on paper that match your colors. A coral and navy strip looks sharper than plain white.
- Use wedding colors on chalkboard signs, printed templates, props, and the photo booth exterior too.
- Your guests will love your signature-colored sunglasses and hats in the photo booth.
- Have solid color backdrop options that coordinate with your palette.
- Include wedding hashtags or monograms on props in colors that pop against your booth backdrop.
With a vibrant spectrum of props and details featuring your favorite shades, your photo booth will fit right in!
