In detail
Photo booths, magic mirrors, DJs and more
What each option is, what is included, the space and power it needs, and what it typically costs.
01
Drinks reception & evening
Wedding photo booths
Photo booths work when they are busy. That means putting one on the route guests already walk, giving it a decent backdrop rather than a sagging sequin curtain, and having someone there to keep it moving during the busiest hour.
We supply attended booths with props chosen to suit your day, prints on the night and a full digital gallery afterwards. Guests can add messages to a guest book alongside their prints, which makes a lovely keepsake. We are also straightforward about when a booth is not the right spend: if your drinks reception is only forty minutes long, the money is usually better placed elsewhere, and we will say so.

02
Between the bar and the dancefloor
Magic mirror hire
A magic mirror is a full-length touchscreen mirror that talks to guests, animates as they pose and prints their photos on the spot. Because it is full length, it captures outfits and groups far better than a classic booth.
It earns its place when it is positioned well and staffed properly, and that is the part most couples never see on a brochure. We place ours where guests already gather, usually between the bar and the dancefloor, so there is a queue of people enjoying themselves rather than a screen glowing in an empty corner. Every booking comes with an attendant, props and a custom print design to match your stationery.

After dinner, as the party starts
360 video booths
A 360 platform is a small stage with a camera on a rotating arm that films guests in slow motion as it sweeps around them. It is the most shared piece of entertainment we hire, with clips sent straight to phones the same evening, and the easiest to get wrong.
It needs roughly three metres of clear space, a level floor, decent power and somebody operating it, which rules out a good number of pretty but uneven terraces. Placed properly, with lighting that flatters rather than flattens, it produces clips your guests post that night. We check the surface and the power at the venue first, because a platform crammed into a corner on a slope delivers neither the footage nor the queue.

04
First dance until the finish
Wedding DJ hire
The difference between a dancefloor that empties at midnight and one that has to be closed down is almost always the DJ reading the room rather than playing a prepared set. We book DJs who have worked enough international weddings to handle a mixed crowd of British, Irish, Spanish and other guests without losing half of it.
A typical package covers a pre-wedding call to agree your must-play and do-not-play lists, sound and lighting, background music through the drinks and dinner if you want it, your first dance and the party set. Sound limiters, curfews and outdoor noise rules vary from venue to venue, so we check the licence conditions before we confirm anyone, and the kit and finish time are agreed in writing rather than argued about on the night.

Drinks, cake cutting & photographs
Flower and shimmer walls
Flower and shimmer walls do a specific job: they give an otherwise plain wall a reason to be photographed, and they give guests somewhere to gather during the stretch between the ceremony and dinner. They also make a beautiful backdrop for the cake, the dessert table or a neon sign with your names. For bouquets, arches and table flowers, see our guide to wedding flowers.
They look best against something solid and in soft, directional light, which is why we choose the position before we choose the wall. We are also honest about scale. A two-metre panel against a large Andalusian courtyard or a grand country-house hall looks apologetic, and in those spaces a larger installation or a different approach usually serves you better.
