For an Indian wedding photo booth in Sydney, book a 360 booth for the high-energy nights and an open air booth for the events where guests want a print to take home. A multi-day wedding runs several events with different crowds, so one booth choice rarely fits all of them. At Shutter360, a 360 booth starts from 585+GST(643.50 inc GST) and an open air booth starts from 500+GST(550 inc GST). This guide shows how to match each booth to each event, size the hire for a large guest list, and brief your supplier early.

Key Takeaways

• Match booth to event. A 360 booth suits a full dance floor. An open air booth suits events where guests want a print in hand. A multi-day wedding can use one of each.

• Price each event on its own. A 360 booth starts from 585+GST(643.50 inc GST). An open air booth starts from 500+GST(550 inc GST). Each event is a separate hire.

• Size for the guest list. A 360 booth holds 6 to 8 guests per session and sessions are unlimited. Group shots move a big crowd faster than single guests.

• Pause for the key moments. Couples ask us to pause the booth during speeches. Put speeches and any rituals on the run sheet so the attendant knows when to start and stop.

• Brief both families early. Our pre-event form goes out 4 weeks before the event. Collect overlay, colour and music input from each family before it arrives.

• Check space at each venue. A 360 booth needs a clear 2m x 2m floor area. Ask each venue where the booth can sit without blocking the dance floor or the buffet.

Which booth suits each event in a multi-day Indian wedding?

Start with what guests are doing at each event, then pick the booth. The table below is a starting point. Your families know the mood of each night better than any supplier. Adjust it.

A 360 booth records a slow-motion video, so it rewards movement. A print from an open air booth rewards the guest who wants a keepsake and a quiet minute. Both come with a professional attendant and an online gallery within 24 hours, which suits families who want every clip and print shared the next day.

How does a large guest list change the booking?

Guest numbers drive hire length and booth choice. Desi Wed Australia's 2026 cost guide reports that Indian weddings in Sydney commonly run 200 to 600 guests. That is a lot of people. Plan the flow before you plan the price. Sessions are unlimited during the hire. A 360 booth holds 6 to 8 guests on the platform at once, so a family group takes one turn, not eight. An open air booth gives each session either two 2" x 6" strips or one 4" x 6" print. For a single-day wedding, we suggest 4 to 5 hours depending on guest numbers. For a multi-day wedding, set the hours per event instead. Which event has the longest stretch of standing and mingling? Hire the longest window there, and keep the shorter events lean.

Pause the booth for the moments that matter

Photo booth use comes in waves. Couples often ask us to pause the booth during speeches, and the same applies to formal entrances and any ritual your families want undisturbed. Put those moments on the run sheet. The attendant holds the queue, then reopens the booth when the room loosens up and the next song starts. Music needs the same care. Overlay and music are customisable per event, so match the booth to the playlist your DJ or band is running instead of competing with it. Place the booth near the edge of the dance floor. Keep it away from the main speakers. Bass vibration shows up in 360 footage, and a booth tucked beside a speaker stack makes every clip shake.

What should you brief your photo booth supplier on?

Our pre-event briefing form goes out 4 weeks before the event, and we finalise every detail 2 weeks out. For a multi-day wedding, give us these points for each event:

1. The date, venue, start time and hire window.

2. The expected guest count and the age mix.

3. The overlay design, colours and any names or wording, including other languages or scripts.

4. The music for that night, and the moments to pause the booth.

5. One family contact who stays on site.

Venues vary a lot across Sydney. Western Sydney banquet halls such as Doltone House, harbour venues in the Sydney CBD and function centres in the Hills District all differ on power, floor space and load-in. Our photo booth hire across Sydney includes free delivery in the Hills District and Western Sydney, within 25km of Quakers Hill. Travel and parking fees apply elsewhere, and we state them upfront.

Costing a two-booth plan

Each event is its own hire, so price them one by one. These are our starting prices.

Setup and pack-down sit outside your hire time. We also carry two ring lights and two of every critical cable, so a failed part does not stop the night. Add up the events you want covered. Then trim the plan to the nights with the biggest crowds, because that is where a booth earns its place.

Frequently asked questions

Can we book a different booth for each wedding event?

Each event is a separate booking, so you choose the booth, hire window and overlay for each one. A 360 booth for the sangeet and an open air booth for the reception is one pairing to consider. Brief each event in the pre-event form so the details match.

How long should we hire a booth for a large reception?

For a single-day wedding we suggest 4 to 5 hours, depending on guest numbers. A large reception sits at the top of that range. Tell us your run sheet so the booth pauses during speeches and runs through the mingling stretches.

Where does the booth sit in a big banquet hall?

Place it near the edge of the dance floor, away from the main speakers, with room for a short queue. A 360 booth needs a clear 2m x 2m floor area. We confirm the position with your venue contact before the event.

A booth matched to each event gives every guest something to take home from the night they enjoyed most. See our wedding photo booth hire in Sydney and tell us which events you are planning.
