    We may do both, our venue has a balcony over looking the dance floor so our photo booth will definitely go up there. We also have a separate dining area so we may put some games there after.

    Games? I think? Maybe neither. I'm not sure.

    Neither, our wedding will be more informal so more a dinner and party sort of vibe

    Why not have both?! We are at our wedding. I’m going to have a bean bag and ring toss set up outside.

    Both. We have a photo booth that will open after dinner. My FH is really into golf so I am getting a small putting green and in order to get us to kiss they have to get a hole in 1.

    Potentially both. Games for between ceremony and reception since it is at the same location. Photobooth during reception.

    Small games but nothing major as we are connected to a casino

    We were not planning on having either a photo booth or games, but this past weekend my fiances extended family threw us an "I Do BBQ" as they called it, they had tons of lawn games, and they made us a cornhole/beanbag toss game, and it is wedding themed! We decided to bring it to the wedding since it is at a large indoor/outdoor venue with a huge lawn, that way guests can enjoy the game during cocktail hour, and its a cute memento as well. So, definitely games over photo booth!

    No games. Just the Photo Booth. We don't have a lot of space to be able to play games.

    Both. Photobooth, lawn games, probably a bouncy castle (there will be lots of kids) and some other games through out the reception

    We are setting up some lawn games for in between the ceremony and reception. We're getting married at a summer camp, so it's the perfect location for that kind of thing. I'm also hoping to do a photo booth with my instant camera, which can also be a way of adding something special to our guest book.

    I know it says to pick one, but we are doing both. Our family is huge on playing games and it is a nice way to keep people occupied during the cocktail hour rather than just standing around. The photo booth we are having during the dance so people can take a break from dancing if they want to while they grab a drink. We just have too many people that have too much silliness in them not to take advantage of it Smiley smile

    I think a photo booth would be better because not everyone likes to participate in games. We won't be having either of these.

    We are having a photobooth. We are getting married later in the afternoon so it wouldn't be ideal for lawn games.

    I think for an outdoor wedding, lawn games are fun! This weekend we had a giant jenga to play (the exact same as in the picture above), and then we had corn hole as well. They did prove a hanging frame for the guests to take selfies in! If it was an indoor ceremony, I think a photobooth would be fun!

    We're having a selfie station. We wanted outdoor games but my family member who was handling it kinda forgot so I'm just leaving it. It's too late to add more stuff to do!
