The 2025 wedding season is in full swing, and photo booths are more popular—and more personalized—than ever. If you’re planning your big day, the right photo booth isn’t just a fun extra—it’s a memory-making experience that can elevate your entire event. From custom animations to personalized props, today’s booths are designed to wow your guests and leave them with keepsakes they’ll actually cherish.
Ready to see what’s trending? Here are the top photo booth trends making waves in 2025 weddings:
1. Photo Booth Prints Make the Best Wedding Favors
Photo booths are more than just fun - they’re a chance to create memories and meaningful keepsakes. If your wedding budget doesn’t currently include photo booth entertainment, you may want to rethink it. Here’s why: photo booth prints make amazing wedding favors.
Instead of spending money on trinkets like coasters or wine stoppers that often get left behind (or end up at Goodwill), consider redirecting those funds to a custom-designed photo booth experience. Guests get a fun activity and a personalized memento they’ll actually want to keep.
“We were going to order coasters with our names on them as favors, but I remembered my friend who ended up with a box of leftover wine openers after her wedding - most guests didn’t take one. That’s when we decided to use photo booth prints instead. They were as personal as it gets, and our guests loved taking home photos of themselves from our big day. Sofya from The Yellow Mirror suggested it, and I’m so glad we listened. Best decision ever.”— Laura Dunn
2. Your Wedding is Classy. Your Photo Booth Should Be Too.
When many people think of photo booths, they imagine outdated, clunky boxes tucked in a corner—grainy photo strips, awkward lighting, and a setup that feels more like a mall kiosk than a wedding feature. These days, that look has been rebranded by some companies using iPads or tablets propped on stands, wrapped in flashy graphics to seem high-end. But let’s be real—if the camera quality is low and the setup is uninspired, it won’t elevate your event (or your photos).
Thankfully, couples today have better options. Sleek, interactive mirror booths - like Mirror Booth and Mirror Style - bring cutting-edge design and fun to your wedding without sacrificing style. With a modern aesthetic, intuitive touchscreen interface, and high-quality, custom-designed prints, The Yellow Mirror turns your photo booth into a truly premium experience—and a perfect, personalized wedding favor.
3. Digital Sharing and High-Quality Prints: The Best of Both Worlds
Let’s be honest - everyone loves getting their photo instantly. Whether it’s a glam solo shot or a chaotic group pic, guests want to text it to themselves and post it before the night is over. That’s why instant digital sharing has become a must-have at modern events. With The Yellow Mirror, guests can text or email their photos directly from the booth in seconds - no apps, no hassle.
But here's the thing: prints aren’t dead. In fact, physical photo strips are still one of the most loved keepsakes from weddings and parties. There’s just something about holding a glossy, custom-designed print in your hands - it feels tangible, nostalgic, and personal. That’s why we offer both.
At The Yellow Mirror, every guest gets a beautiful, high-quality print and the option to send the digital version to their phone. It’s the perfect combo of modern convenience and timeless charm. Some guests hang the prints on their fridge. Others scrapbook them or save them in a memory box. And for hosts, prints double as instant party favors your guests will actually want to keep.
Digital or print? You don’t have to choose. With us, you get both - and your guests will thank you for it.
4. Customization Is the New Standard
In 2025, cookie-cutter just doesn’t cut it. Couples and event planners are putting more thought than ever into creating one-of-a-kind experiences - and that includes the photo booth. From color palettes to typography to signature cocktails, every detail matters - and your photo booth should be no exception.
At The Yellow Mirror, we treat your event like the once-in-a-lifetime moment it is. That’s why we never use generic photo booth templates or one-size-fits-all designs. Instead, we start by asking you to fill out our Event Details Form, where we learn everything from your theme and colors to your vibe, guest list, and must-haves. Then, we custom-design your print layout from scratch, making sure it perfectly matches the look and feel of your event.
But we don’t stop there.
We also create personalized start screen animations, offer custom scrapbooks and printed memory books, and even build interactive experiences like digital seating charts or custom props based on your favorite things.
Because your event isn’t just “another booking” to us - it’s your day. And we’re here to make sure the photo booth fits in seamlessly, beautifully, and memorably.
5. Props Are More Popular Than Ever
Props aren’t just for the silly guests anymore - they’ve become a way to personalize your photo booth experience and make it uniquely yours. While the classics like hats, glasses, and boas are always a hit, today’s couples are taking things to the next level with custom props that reflect their personality and story.
At The Yellow Mirror, we offer a curated collection of both vintage and modern accessories - but what really gets us excited are the custom creations. Want giant cutouts of your pet’s face? We can do that. How about props featuring your favorite movie characters or inside jokes only your friends would understand? Done. We can even make life-size cutouts of the bride, groom, or anyone else you want to spotlight - and trust us, people love them.
Whether you want something playful, personal, or downright ridiculous, we’re here for it. Props are more than just accessories - they’re conversation starters, icebreakers, and a guaranteed way to keep the laughter going all night long.
6. One Layout? That's Boring. Give Guests Options.
Why limit your guests to just one print layout when you can give them choices? One of the standout features of The Yellow Mirror is the ability to offer multiple print layout options within a single event. Whether someone wants a classic 4-photo strip or a single full-frame glam shot, we make it happen.
Because let’s face it - not all guests are the same. Some want one perfect photo to frame or use for their holiday card. Others want to go wild, switching props for each shot and squeezing in as much silliness as possible. With The Yellow Mirror, everyone gets exactly what they want.
Choose from layouts with 1, 2, 3, or 4 photos - or go custom. We can design mock magazine covers, vintage wanted posters, black-and-white glam shots, and more. And coming soon: AI-generated images for a whole new level of fun and creativity.
Bottom line? You don’t have to choose one layout - and your guests will love the freedom to express themselves however they like.
Ready to Choose the Right Photo Booth?
There’s a lot to consider when choosing photo booth entertainment for your event - and it’s worth taking the time to get it right. From high-quality photos and sleek backdrops to custom props and interactive features, today’s best booths offer so much more than a camera on a stand.
We hope these top 2025 photo booth trends help you narrow down your options and envision what’s possible. At The Yellow Mirror, we’re all about creating unforgettable, fully customized experiences that reflect your style and keep your guests talking long after the last dance.
