Want guests who can't stop raving about your event? It starts with creating experiences they'll actually remember. At Photobomb, that's our specialty, and with our newest interactive entertainment lineup, we're raising the bar even higher.

From our signature photo booths to the just-launched Boxing Punch Machine, these rentals turn standard events into high-energy celebrations packed with unforgettable moments.

Here are five event types that get an instant upgrade when you bring Photobomb's interactive entertainment into the mix.

1. Weddings: Keep the Celebration Going Between Dances

Your reception should feel electric from the first toast to the last dance — but there's always downtime. While the DJ queues up the next song or the photographer gathers family members, interactive entertainment keeps the momentum alive.

Our Photo Booth, 360 Photo Booth, and Boxing Punch Machine give guests something engaging to do instead of just scrolling their phones.

Why this works:

  • Maintains high energy throughout the entire reception

  • Sparks laughter and friendly competition between tables

  • Creates shareable keepsakes with custom photo strips

  • Appeals to every generation on your guest list

You've already got the love and romance covered — now add a dose of pure fun.

2. Corporate Events: Turn Awkward Networking into Genuine Connection

Let's be honest, corporate events can feel forced. But they don't have to. The right interactive entertainment breaks down walls and gets people actually engaging with each other at mixers, holiday parties, and conferences.

Top corporate choices:

  • 360 Photo Booth — creates branded video content employees will share

  • Claw Machine — instant team-building moments

  • Boxing Punch Machine — ignites friendly competition over who reigns supreme

Nothing builds camaraderie faster than cheering on your coworkers.

3. College Events: Non-Stop Entertainment Students Actually Want

Whether it's orientation week, a Greek life bash, campus kickoff, or festival day, college students crave interactive experiences that give them bragging rights and shareable content.

The Boxing Punch Machine crushes it at:

  • Campus festivals and outdoor events

  • Pre-game and post-game celebrations

  • Fraternity and sorority mixers

  • Late-night campus programming

Pair it with a photo booth and you've got two guaranteed crowd magnets.

4. Trade Shows: Stand Out on a Crowded Convention Floor

Trade shows are packed with exhibitors competing for attention. If you want people to actually stop at your booth instead of walking past, interactive entertainment is your not-so-secret weapon.

Expo favorites:

  • Boxing Punch Machine — impossible to walk past without trying

  • Marquee Letters — fully branded with your logo

  • 360 Booth — creates instant social media buzz

These attractions help you:

  • Drive significantly more foot traffic to your space

  • Capture qualified leads while they're having fun

  • Build a memorable brand experience that lasts beyond the event

Attendees might forget your sales pitch — but they won't forget crushing their colleague's high score.

How a Photo Booth Turns Ordinary Events into Unforgettable Experiences

It started with one simple idea, that everyone deserves to have fun, feel seen, and capture memories they’ll actually want to look back on.

When I first got into the photo booth business, I wasn’t thinking about awards or five-star reviews. I was thinking about that moment at every wedding or party where people gather around a booth, laughing and letting go. No matter the age or personality, everyone ends up in that booth and I saw the magic it created.

That spark became Photobomb Pictures, a small idea that grew into one of Central New York’s most trusted and celebrated event rental companies. Today, we’re proud to have been voted Best Party Rental Company in the Finger Lakes in both 2024 and 2025, with over 100 glowing Google reviews from clients who keep coming back for more.

More Than a Booth — It’s an Experience

At Photobomb Pictures, we don’t just drop off equipment and call it a day. Every setup is a full experience — complete with an energetic, professional attendant who keeps the crowd engaged and ensures everything runs smoothly.

We match your event’s vibe, whether it’s black-tie formal or backyard casual, and our team blends right in. Guests often tell us, “These are some of the best photos I’ve ever seen of myself.” And that’s exactly why we do what we do.

Our photo booths feature premium lighting, DSLR-quality cameras, and instant sharing options like text, AirDrop, QR code, and email. Whether your guests want timeless prints or digital copies they can post right away, we make it effortless.

Photo Booth Trends Defining 2026

The photo booth industry evolves fast, and we love staying ahead of the trends. In 2026, we’re seeing a major rise in Glam Booths — that sleek, black-and-white airbrushed look that gives every guest a red-carpet feel. It’s timeless, elegant, and perfect for weddings and upscale corporate events.

We’re also seeing a demand for clean, modern setups that complement your décor rather than compete with it. Our Rustic Wooden Booth is perfect for barn and outdoor weddings, while our White Modern Glam Booth fits seamlessly into contemporary venues and brand activations.

And, of course, instant digital sharing continues to dominate. Guests love capturing and posting their favorite moments right from the event — turning your celebration into a live social media highlight.

When the Photo Booth Saves the Day

We’ve all seen it, that moment when the dance floor is quiet or the schedule hits a lull. Then the photo booth opens, and everything changes.

The second the lights flash and that countdown starts, people jump in. Friends pile together, props come out, and laughter fills the room. The booth becomes the centerpiece of the night — the moment that brings everyone together.

It’s proof that the right entertainment doesn’t just capture memories — it creates them.
