When booking a Photo Booth for your special occasion, one of the key decisions you’ll make is choosing the print format for your guests’ photos. At Jellybean Photobooth, we offer two popular options: the classic 6×4 prints and the retro-inspired 6×2 strips. Both have their unique charms and benefits, and we’re here to help you decide which one is the perfect fit for your event.
The Classic 6×4 Prints
Why Choose 6×4 Prints?
- Larger Size for Bigger Smiles: The 6×4 prints offer more space, allowing for bigger and clearer photos. This is ideal if you have larger groups or want to capture more detail in each shot.
- Design Flexibility: With more real estate on the print, there’s ample room for custom branding, messages, or decorative elements that match your event’s theme. Whether it’s a wedding monogram, corporate logo, or a special message, the possibilities are vast.
- Keepsake Quality: These prints are perfect for framing or adding to photo albums and scrapbooks. Their standard size makes them easy to display at home or the office, serving as a lasting reminder of your fantastic event.
Ideal For:
- Weddings
- Corporate events
- Anniversaries
- Birthday parties where guests might appreciate a larger memento
The Retro 6×2 Strips
Why Choose 6×2 Strips?
- Nostalgic Appeal: The 6×2 strips bring back the charm of vintage photo booths, offering a fun and retro feel that guests of all ages can enjoy.
- Convenient Size: Their slim design makes them easy to slip into a purse, wallet, or even use as a bookmark. Guests can carry a piece of your event with them wherever they go.
- Multiple Shots in One: Typically, these strips feature a series of photos stacked vertically, capturing a sequence of fun moments in a single print.
Rising Popularity
We’ve noticed a significant uptick in the popularity of 6×2 strips for events booked in 2024, now making up around 20% of our bookings. Their unique style and convenience are resonating with more and more clients, adding a trendy twist to events.
Ideal For:
- School proms and leavers’ parties
- Retro or vintage-themed events
- Casual gatherings where fun and spontaneity are key
- Guests who love the idea of a portable keepsake
Making the Decision: What Suits Your Event Best?
When deciding between 6×4 prints and 6×2 strips, consider the following:
- Event Theme: If your event has a vintage or retro theme, the 6×2 strips might enhance the ambiance. For a more traditional or formal event, the classic 6×4 prints could be more appropriate.
- Guest Preferences: Think about your guests. Would they appreciate a larger print to display at home, or would they prefer a convenient strip they can easily carry?
- Branding and Design: If incorporating significant branding, messages, or intricate designs is important to you, the 6×4 prints offer more space to bring your vision to life.
