Wedding, as a couple union, we hope it may be one in life and that our partner will be for life.
Wedding, as a event is certainly unrepeatable because of the people who participate, therefore it should also be considered as an opportunity for unrepeatable sharing.

In the Guest Book, thoughts and affection are always sincere.
A Guest Book can be used for wishes only, but when Polaroid photos are combined with wishes, Guest Books become even more precious objects!
It is the difference between radio and cinema: listening to words evokes images in our mind, viewing images makes us completely relive a particular situation!

Many times couples told us how exciting it was, the day after their wedding, to browse the guest book written the day before by their loved ones. It’s like opening a gift and prolonging the wedding.

Guest Book can be entertainment: many times we saw adults having fun being photographed and then enjoying writing on the Guest book.
For many today the Guest Book is a piece of the party that should never be missing at the wedding reception.

Is the GUEST BOOK a book or is it a tool?
Is the GUEST BOOK a sharing of affections, or is it just a way to say: – “I was there too!”?
Is the GUEST BOOK a way to keep dedications or photos or is it a way to make a wish?
Surely it’s all this and also is the perfect, elegant, discreet excuse to involve the guests, to sensitize them to remember that the reception is not like being in a restaurant!
Marriage is a day of sharing and the Guest Book is sharing.

Personal digression on the concept of RECEPTION: bride and groom often misrepresent the idea of wedding reception.
Sometimes they thought it is a way of thanking guests for participating.
Now, if you think it is necessary to thank any guests for coming to your wedding, give yourself a gift, do not invite them: you deserve better

Let’s debunk the cliches:

“Is it enough for me to set up a table with the Guestbook and some Polaroid machines?”
Unfortunately 9 out of 10 times it doesn’t work.

Why?

1) Because the guest book must be suggested to guests. Making a wish for the bride is a moment of true sharing and therefore it may not be easy.
It is an individual act and an intimate moment, certainly more authentic than typing a whatsapp (the message is overcome, the printed paper is kept forever).
We are no longer used to write with pen in white sheet!
It is necessary to let go our feelings!
After overcoming the initial stumbling block, you will feels intimately better after writing some beautiful thought.

2) Because in wedding receptions, guests will rarely come spontaneously. The guests are usually more discreet than at a dinner at home. The elegance of ties and long dresses calls for behavior appropriate to the wedding tone,
Everyone knows, however, that wedding is the celebration of love and not just a PR event, so when the photographer invites the guest to take a photo and / or a dedication for the Guest Book, everyone always feels well prepared because involved .
The GUEST BOOK is a key to reinforcing everyone’s need for participation.

3) Because Polaroid cameras are not digital, therefore they must be managed by a photographer. The Polaroid cameras after about 10 shots must be opened and the film must be replaced every time. Who still uses film cameras? Nowadays it is a technical complication.
Having the Polaroid camera managed by an invited friend (who will never say that he would have preferred to enjoy the party) let’s be honest.+, is not an elegant solution.

THEREFORE:

“The Photo Guestbook only works when a photographer is going to manage it”

The goal of the Guestbook Polaroid photographer is always to offer the bride and groom the best possible experience of the event. During the reception, the photographer manages the Polaroid camera and work for involving the guests with discretion and elegance.
The photographer is the key because it allows you to:
– involve the guests (at least the majority of them) suggesting them the importance of dedicating their own thoughts to the wedding couple
– make the reception more dynamic and enjoyable
– if possible, also give the guests a printed photo souvenir to take away.

Guestbook and Polaroid are a perfect match.
When combined with a Photo booth, the reception becomes a TOP event!

“Let’s debunk the clichés!”

Sometimes bride, groom and guests, especially when the context is very formal and elegant, prefer the way of discretion, low tones, thinking that low profile attitude is synonymous with refinement and prestige.
Let’s not confuse cheap and ridicule entertainment with professional entertainment.
Photo-Booth becomes baroque when it is not managed by professionals.
Photo Boooth is an element of visual impact in receptions that must retain its dedicated and well-studied space in relation to where the aperitif tables are positioned (when tables are present).
The help of a professional is highly recommended.

“Is it enough to set up a table with some Polaroid cameras?”

We can say yes if your purpose is just enriching the location,
When your goal is to allow your guests taking photos, the “Up Yourself Polaroid Corner” does NOT work at all.
We have seen so many beautiful Photo Booth settings, but left to themselves so they lack real involvement.
A Photo Booth that works is a managed Photo Booth.
Otherwise Photo Booth will be only a colorful space, but ignored by almost all of your guests.
The FocaleWedding Photo-Booth is always manned by our photographer.
Our personal way of conduction of a Photo-Booth makes the difference because we know how to involve people with grace, sobriety and elegance.
An expert photographer knows how and when to ask people to participate in a Photo-Booth by offering them the guarantee of receiving well-made memories (and that eventually they may even take them home by a printed picture).

“I don’t’ care: everyone will take pictures with their mobile phone!”

They will do it, it’s true!
As in our daily life, as in weddings, we like taking photos with our smartphones.
During a wedding, guests are often intent on taking a picture with the idea of keeping a private souvenir of the event.
It’s a commendable effort that then ends up forgetting digital memories crowded with other kind of photos, various documents, images of our job, of our pets, whatsapp images of our many whatsapp groups, etc …
The truth, however, is that our smartphone photograph will be lost in the memories of our smartphones.
Photo booth is the perfect way to take pictures of all your guests! You’ll never lost your wedding photographer’s photos!
If you will add a Guest book, the Photo booth pictures will never be forgot because we’ll collect them in a book!

“Accessories make the difference”

We have ours if you wish!
Here they are:
We have a series of accessories, beards, hairstyles, mustaches, glasses… and then a large number of comics to hold for “Communicating!” It is the logic of the vintage silent films of the early American cinematography! The films, strictly in black and white, had no audio. The voices of the protagonists had to be read by the viewer! The words written in panels that broke the footage were synthetic and easy to read. The Photo Booth was born from this traditional concept and our replica in our printed accessories wants to be a nice, stylish and a solution easy to use.
Our accessories are precious objects on colored shaped Forex. Forex is a safe, light and resistant material, impermeable to liquids and usable in any context.
For very exclusive events, we have also worked with costume designers who have provided real wigs, antique stage clothes, real glasses and a whole set of clothes whose rental is not a detail to be underestimated. We reserve the right to manage certain complexities only upon explicit request from the wedding planner or client agency.

“The Photo Booth backdrop”

We provide our universal backdrop-holder structure and the backdrops we have (structure measurements: up to 3 meters wide and up to 2.80 meters high).
It would be great to create your own ad hoc backdrop for your personal event!
With a little extra, on request, our creative team will create a graphic project designed for a real photo backdrop made of fabric.
Just consider an adequate advance to manage production and printing times.
We are also used to manage Photo Booth when instead of our backdrop there is a scenography provided by externals
When Photo Booth scenography is made by real armchairs, tables with chairs, lamps and other accessories the logistics and set-up will be the subject of a project with an ad hoc estimate depending on the complexity of the scenography.
Setting up, transportation and then picking up at the end of the event are just some of the complexities to manage.

Focalewedding’s Photo-booth is a quality entertainment where every detail of its management is not left to chance and offers just interesting opportunities:
– entertain the guests during the aperitif with an elegant divertissement
– enrich the reception with a beautiful idea always well appreciated by guests
– create the ideal situation for taking photos to of your all guests!
– dissolve the event tension and take advantage of the game of photography to create moments of authentic sharing happiness.
– in case you have added a Polaroid Service, immediately give the guests a souvenir photo of the wedding)

Seeking the advice of an experienced and professional team is essential.

A Photo booth, set up with dedicated lights and a professional photo backdrop requires ad hoc management of the spaces of the location and also an adequate thinking concerning the safety parameters due to the presence of professional lighting equipments.
