How to Create a Themed Photobooth Experience
Anyone can snap a photo—but when your photobooth feels like part of the party, that’s when the real magic happens. Whether it’s a roaring '20s Gatsby vibe or a whimsical garden tea party, themed photobooths bring an extra layer of energy and style to any event.

And guess what? You don’t need to go over-the-top to make it happen. With a little planning and creativity, you can build a themed photobooth setup that looks amazing and gets people talking.
Here’s how to pull off a themed photobooth like a pro:
1. Start With a Statement Backdrop
The backdrop sets the tone. For a disco night? Go shiny with sequins or metallic fringe. Rustic wedding? Wooden textures or floral walls. Even a plain color with the right accents can bring your theme to life—don’t stress, just match the vibe.
2. Props That Pop
Just some of our props!
Props are your theme’s best friends. Think masquerade masks, safari hats, vintage luggage, or superhero capes—whatever fits your occasion. DIY or store-bought, just make sure they’re easy to grab and fun to use.
3. Dress Up Your Prints
It’s not just what’s in the photo—it’s how it’s framed. Add themed overlays, matching colors, or your event name and date to the print templates. It’s a small touch that makes a big difference and keeps everything cohesive.
4. Match the Mood
Got a fairytale theme? Add soft lighting. Hosting a neon rave? Bring on the color-changing LEDs. Music, mood, and placement all help your booth blend seamlessly with the party instead of feeling like an afterthought.
5. Don't Forget the Details
A sign with your event hashtag, a mini seating area, or even theme-matching flooring (hello, faux grass or checkerboard mats!) makes the experience feel immersive and intentional.
And if you’re thinking, “This sounds awesome but I don’t know where to start,” we got you.
