When planning your event, one of the key decisions you’ll make is choosing how long to book your Photo Booth. At Jellybean Photobooth, we offer flexible booking durations to suit events of all sizes. But how do you decide what’s the right amount of time for your celebration? We’re here to help you figure it out!

Understanding Our Booking Durations

Our most popular booking duration is 3 hours. This time frame tends to hit the sweet spot for many events, providing ample opportunity for all your guests to hop in front of the camera and create lasting memories.

We also offer a 2-hour booking option, which is available exclusively in Sheffield. This shorter duration is perfect for intimate gatherings where the guest list is more manageable, and everyone can enjoy the Photo Booth without feeling rushed.

For larger events or those who simply want to maximize the fun, we recommend considering a 4-hour booking—or even longer if you wish. After all, you want the best bang for your buck!

Our General Guidelines for Booking Durations

To help you make the best decision, here’s a simple guideline based on the number of guests and the location of your event:

  • Less than 80 guests and in Sheffield: Opt for 2 hours
  • 80-140 guests: Go for 3 hours
  • 140+ guests: Choose 4 hours

Let’s delve a bit deeper into why these time frames work best for different event sizes.

Less Than 80 Guests in Sheffield: The 2-Hour Special

If you’re hosting a smaller event within Sheffield—think intimate weddings, birthday parties, or corporate gatherings with fewer than 80 attendees—the 2-hour booking is a great fit.

Why Choose 2 Hours?

  • Sufficient Time: With fewer guests, everyone will have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the Photo Booth multiple times.
  • Cost-Effective: This option provides excellent value, giving you all the fun without paying for unused time.
  • Local Advantage: Since this option is available exclusively in Sheffield, you benefit from our close proximity, ensuring seamless setup and service.

80-140 Guests: The Popular 3-Hour Option

For medium-sized events, our 3-hour booking is the most popular choice.

Why Choose 3 Hours?

  • Balanced Experience: Three hours strikes a perfect balance, giving all guests ample time to participate without feeling rushed.
  • Enhanced Atmosphere: The Photo Booth remains a focal point throughout the event, keeping the energy high and guests entertained.
  • Flexibility: This duration works well with most event schedules, fitting neatly around speeches, meals, and other activities.

140+ Guests: Go Big with 4 Hours or More

Hosting a large event? With 140 or more guests, we recommend booking the Photo Booth for 4 hours or longer.

Why Choose 4 Hours or More?

  • Everyone Gets a Turn: Larger crowds mean more people eager to jump in the booth. Extra time ensures no one misses out.
  • Extended Fun: The Photo Booth can operate throughout most of your event, providing continuous entertainment.
  • Memorable Impact: A longer presence makes the Photo Booth an integral part of your event, creating more opportunities for unforgettable moments.

We Offer Longer Durations Too!

If you’re planning an all-day affair or simply want the Photo Booth available for an extended period, we’re happy to accommodate. We can tailor a package to suit your specific needs, ensuring you get the most out of your booking.

Getting the Best Bang for Your Buck

At Jellybean Photobooth, we believe in providing value without compromising on quality. By choosing the right duration based on your guest count and event type, you ensure that you’re investing wisely and maximizing enjoyment for everyone involved.

Tips for Maximizing Value:

  • Know Your Schedule: Consider the flow of your event. When are guests most likely to use the Photo Booth? Scheduling during peak times ensures high engagement.
  • Communicate with Us: Share your event details with our team. We can offer personalized recommendations to help you choose the best duration.
  • Consider Idle Time: If there are periods during your event when the Photo Booth won’t be in use (like during speeches or meals), let us know. We can discuss options like idle hours to optimize your booking.

We’re Here to Help!
