200 × 70% = 140 participants. 140 / 2.5 = 56 sessions. Capacity: 20/hr × 5 = 100 (OK). 56 × 3 = 168 photos. 56 × 2 = 112 prints. 112 × $0.50 = $56.
About 60–75% of guests will use the photo booth, visiting in groups of 2–3. For 100 guests with an open air booth, expect about 30 sessions over 4 hours. Each session takes about 3 minutes, so the booth handles up to 20 sessions per hour.
| Guests | Classic (60%) | Open Air (75%) | Mirror (70%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 12 sessions | 15 sessions | 14 sessions |
| 100 | 24 sessions | 30 sessions | 28 sessions |
| 150 | 36 sessions | 45 sessions | 42 sessions |
| 200 | 48 sessions | 60 sessions | 56 sessions |
Plan 2 print strips per session (one for guests, one for the guestbook). For 100 guests with an open air booth, that is about 60 prints. At $0.35 per 2×6 strip, budget $21 for print supplies. Larger 4×6 postcards cost $0.50 each.
Plan about 1 prop for every 2 guests (0.5 per guest). For 100 guests, that means 50 props. Include a mix of hats, glasses, signs, and themed accessories. Rotate props halfway through the event to keep things fresh.
A photo booth handles 20 sessions per hour. For 100 guests at 75% participation, you need about 30 sessions — so 2 hours is the minimum. The standard rental is 3–4 hours, giving guests plenty of time without feeling rushed. For 200+ guests, book 4–5 hours.
