Get ready, because we’re about to reveal secrets that will make Instax cameras blush and selfie booths cheer with laughter! 🥳 Getting married? Or just planning an unforgettable party? Then this article is for you, because we’ll show you how to spice up the event’s atmosphere in a way your guests will be talking about for weeks! Two big stars are facing off in the photography ring: Instax and the selfie booth. But which one will take home the prize? 🤔
In short: if you want a truly unforgettable wedding experience and professional photos that even your grandma will talk about, then a selfie machine is a far better choice than an Instax. In the long run, you’ll not only save money, but you’ll bring an attraction to the party that is guaranteed to liven up the atmosphere and create lasting memories! 📸✨
📸 Instax: The small, instant wonder… or not?
Instax is the modern great-grandchild of Polaroid cameras, promising to put the moment directly into your hands in the form of a printed photo. And that sounds great, right? However, like all shiny things, this too has a downside, which quickly affects your wallet. 💰
How much does the “moment” cost? 💸
The machine itself starts from HUF 45,000, which would be fine, but what really weighs on the wallet is the photo paper. It’s no exaggeration to say they sell it at a premium price! 😱 If you add up the price of the machine and a “normal” amount of paper for a wedding, you can easily go over the psychological limit of HUF 100,000. And we haven’t even talked about every guest wanting one… or three! 🤯
Quality – Bright or rather dim? 🤔
The quality of Instax photos…well, it’s debatable, to say the least. They are often dark, blurry, and the colors are not always what we would expect. At a wedding, where everyone yearns for perfect moments, this can be quite annoying. Think about it, the perfect bridal gown, the radiant smile – and a dark, blurry picture. Well, that’s not the real deal! 🙈
Where can you take it? Anywhere! But how much? 🎒
The big advantage of the Instax is its mobility. It’s really small, light, you can throw it in your bag, and it can go with you to the party. But that’s exactly its “downfall”! As soon as someone gets their hands on the camera, saving money is out the window! A picture will be taken with everyone, the guests will love having an instant memory, but tens of thousands will already be running out of your pocket… 🏃♀️💸
Props? Search for them separately! 🛍️
If you think the Instax will come with funny masks, signs, or party props, you’re mistaken. You’ll have to acquire each accessory separately, which means additional costs and effort. Who has time for that while planning a wedding? Certainly not you! 🤷♀️
🎉 The Selfie Machine: The party engine and the perfect memory factory!
Well, now comes the real surprise! The selfie machine (or photo booth, as many know it) is not just a simple “clicker machine,” but a complete experience package that unleashes the party atmosphere and creates professional memories! Did you know that with us, renting a selfie machine means a complete package? You don’t have to look for anything, worry about lighting, or get props! We take care of everything! 🎁
The price: An experience that’s worth it! 💖
You can typically rent selfie machines for 3 or 4-hour blocks, and their prices range between 100-200 thousand HUF. At first glance, it might seem like a lot, but consider this: it’s a complete service! Delivery, installation, assistance for guests, and best of all: unlimited printing in excellent quality! If you compare it with the hidden costs of Instax, you’ll realize you get much more for your money here! A one-time expense for an unforgettable experience! ✨
Quality: Top photos, instantly in your hands! 💎
Do you want lingerie-ad quality pictures from your wedding? Then the selfie machine is your friend! Since a real DSLR camera is hidden inside, you get excellent, sharp and balanced photos. Plus, the industrial printer instantly delivers professional-quality pictures into your hands. No more blurry, dark, smile-less photos! 🤩
Usage: Party at the party! 💃🕺
Imagine! While half of the company is dancing on the dance floor to the biggest hits of the 2000s (Britney Spears, Haddaway, Shakira, Avicii or even the latest TikTok trends), the others can have fun in a super photo booth! They stand in front of the machine, choose the silliest props, pose, and the picture is ready! This is not just a program, but a real mood booster that brings people together! 🥳
Accessories: The whole nine yards! 🎉
Here, anything goes! The selfie machine or mirror comes with lots of funny props: giant oversized glasses, colorful hats, wigs, and of course, the unmissable funny signs! No need to run around separately, we’ll bring everything so that your wildest ideas can come to life! 🤡🎩🎭
Who are we? The Wedding DJ team works with over 1000 corporate party and wedding experiences.

✨ The Selfie Mirror: The Modern Wonder That Will Brighten Your Wedding!
Have you heard about the selfie mirror? It’s not just a trend, but a souped-up, modern alternative to traditional photo booths! Imagine a huge, full-body mirror where you see yourself posing in real-time! No more uncomfortable staring at a screen, here you really pose in a way that shows your best side! 🤩
Management? Child’s play! 🤳
The entire surface is touchscreen, just like a gigantic smartphone! Think about it, who wouldn’t be able to use a mobile phone? Nobody! This way, guests will get the hang of it in no time, and the laughter and clicking can begin! Plus, it takes up very little space, so it fits perfectly with any decoration and will be a stylish addition to your wedding! Elegant, modern, and so much fun that this will be the topic among girlfriends for weeks! 😉
Duel in the Spotlight: Instax vs. Selfie Machine – Which One Takes the Crown? 🏆
Okay, let’s see which one works better for you when your wedding is on the line! A selfie machine – whether it’s a classic booth or a futuristic mirror – is a real experience factory! Guests pose, make funny faces, the machine snaps away non-stop, and then, boom, they have a super montage in their hands! They can take it home, stick it in a photobook, or both at once! They’ll remember this fun for weeks after the party! 🥳
Instax? Well, it has one advantage, the aforementioned mobility. But honestly, how much will you use it after the wedding? Many people defend it by saying they’ll use it later, but let’s face it: if you didn’t need it before, you won’t need it after. At best, it will be a dust collector on the shelf, an expensive reminder that you could have saved up for a better one! 😉
Why rent a selfie machine or mirror for your wedding?
Now that you know the difference, let’s see why it’s worth investing in such a modern marvel! These machines don’t just take pictures, they create atmosphere! 🎉
- Mood booster and program in one: While the DJ spins the dance floor with the hottest music (just think of a fast-paced version of ‘Despacito’ or ‘Shape of You’!), life also goes on in the photo booth!
- Brings joy to the event: Laughter and fun are guaranteed, guests will love it! 😂
- Makes guests more social: They get to know each other more easily, relax, and joke around with each other using the props and while posing together.
- Personalized memory: Your names, date, a message, or even your logo can be added to the pictures! It’s a truly “custom-made” experience! 👰♀️🤵♂️
- Great thank-you gift: Guests take home an instant, personalized keepsake they’ll never forget! This is much cooler than an almond! 😉
- Stylish accessory: Especially the selfie mirror looks so good that it perfectly fits into any wedding decoration! Modern, elegant, yet playful. 💖
Unlimited printing and digital magic: How many pictures can you take home? ✉️
One of the biggest draws of selfie machines is unlimited printing! Yes, you read that right! This means that every guest gets a great picture, or even more! You can take the high-quality prints home or paste them into your memory album. 🖼️
But that’s not all! You will also receive the high-resolution digital versions of all finished photos via email! This way, you can easily share them on social media, send them to relatives who couldn’t make it, or use them for future memories. Instant Insta-ready pictures, for everyone’s delight! 📱
How many pictures can be taken home after one evening? 📸
If you rent a selfie machine, make sure everyone has at least one photo they can take home! In fact, we recommend choosing a machine that provides unlimited prints! Why? Because a guest will probably pose in front of the camera multiple times: once with their partner, once with friends, once with aunts… so unlimited quantity is the winner! Don’t deny them the fun! 😉
Pro tip: Coordinate with the photographer and videographer beforehand! We’ll tell you when and where the show will be, so they can prepare for stunning shots. Slow-motion clips with fireworks are especially impactful! 🎬
Time limits and number of guests: How long should the machine be available? ⏰
The only “downside” of the selfie machine is that it can only be rented for a fixed interval. But that’s not even a problem, as every minute is accounted for on the wedding night anyway! It’s worth thinking in advance about where, how, and when guests will make the best use of it. This is part of “party planning”! 🧐
For example, if 50-100 guests arrive at the wedding, then about 3-4 hours are plenty. During this time, everyone can fulfill their posing desires. However, if the number of guests doubles, it’s worth increasing the number of hours so that no one misses out on the fun! Don’t forget, they came for the experience! 🕒
Backdrops, borders, and the “prop paradise”: What can you choose? 🎨🎭
Many people ask what backgrounds can be chosen for the selfie machine. According to us, the owners of the selfie machines, the selfie mirror itself looks so good that it would be a shame to cover it with a background. That’s why we don’t have a huge selection, as modern elegance is key! But if you insist, of course, you can choose from the existing options without extra charge. 😉
Props? There are tons! 🎩🦄
But what really makes taking selfies fun is the prop kit! We’ve got loads of extras for you to make your photos even funnier and more memorable. Get ready for fake sharks, wigs, giant glasses, hats, fake mouths and much more! Laughter and unforgettable moments are guaranteed! 😂
Just think about it: horse head, monkey, Joker, witch, pirate, policeman, princess, poop emoji, crown, weapon, “Thug Life” glasses, and tons of other crazy stuff you need for a good party! But if that’s not enough, we also have themed prop sets like Star Wars, Money Heist, Squid Game, or Avengers! You can read more about them here: time2selfie.hu/maszkok/. Choose a theme, and let the costume party begin! 🦸♀️🦹♂️

But what if the selfie machine is just one part of the party? Taking photos is great, but what about dancing, the atmosphere, what really gets the party started and keeps guests on the dance floor until dawn? Well, just as the selfie machine is the king of pictures, the wedding DJ is the king of mood! 🎧
Don’t risk the mood of your wedding! A fantastic selfie machine alone will liven up the party, but complemented by a professional DJ, an unforgettable experience is guaranteed! Imagine: guests happily posing in front of the mirror, then dancing on the dance floor to the biggest hits of the 90s, 2000s (Gigi D’Agostino, Cascada, David Guetta) or the latest radio hits.
