Cigar Roller or Photo Booth

I want to add a little extra something to my wedding, but I am having trouble deciding...

I know FH would love a cigar roller but I think a photo booth would be fun too!

Does anyone have any recommendations for either?? If I can't afford both (which I don't think I can) which one should I go for??

Thanks!!!!

Re: Cigar Roller or Photo Booth

I wanted a photo booth, however FH said No way. He said it would take away from the reception that we are paying so much for. Everyone's going wanna take pictures with friends & family and constantly walking out to go take pics. Taking that into consideration I kinda like the cigar roller. The guys that go will enjoy that and most of the time its the girls having a lot more fun at weddings then the boys. It will give the men more to look forward to. And yet keep everyone still at the reception. However its your wedding do whatever YOU wanna do!!

Hi!!!
I think both are a good idea. However, my preference is the photo booth. I think that this would be sooo much fun considering that the pics get crazier as the night goes on and the drinks start to influence the crowd!!!

But like the bride above me said it is YOUR wedding so just think it out, read as much as you can on previous weddings so you can get a better idea of how to make your decision!!! Good Luck!

I would go photobooth over cigar roller. The photobooth would be great for memories and people will have the pictures to keep...and honestly I'd be more concerned of people leaving the party for cigars than the photobooth. It takes much longer to smoke a cigar than to take a couple pictures, JMO.

Re: Cigar Roller or Photo Booth

I would DEF do a photo booth for a coupld of really good reasons:

1.) FH likes to smoke cigars and I cant really even stand to close to him becuase they smell SO BAD .... Its nice to want to have but can you imagine 10 = 15 guys smoking cigars at your wedding? It would be smelly I think!

2.) Photobooths have this scrapbooking option where people get to keep a copy of their photos for themselves then they can put the other copy in a scrapbook and write a note to the bride and groom. We know a couple who did that and they said it was the best thing they ever did. They looked at it after the wedding and were HYSTERICALLY laughing !!

Overall I think the photobooth is a better option because cigars get thrown away and photos you can keep forever

HTH!!!

I would say Photobooth. I personally hate the smell of cigar smoke and would hate for my wedding venue to smell like that. Also, only men would be able to enjoy this. There aren't many women who smoke cigars. The photobooth can be enjoyed by everyone at your party.

We were going to do cigar rollers but I was talked out of it bc everyone said that all. The men will be outside smoking them and smell bad! And I don't want that after paying so much everyone being outside

Re: Cigar Roller or Photo Booth

Definitely Photo Booth for all the previous reasons stated. Not many women smoke cigars. I'm pretty sure your guests will talk about how awesome it was to have a photo booth.

photo booth is good because everyone can use it. cigar roller is only for people that smoke....plus it is something that goes away....a photo booth can take pictures that you can take home.

Re: Cigar Roller or Photo Booth

I vote for photo booth because more (probably everyone) will be able to enjoy that whereas only a small portion would enjoy/appreciate the cigar rolling.

I wanted a photo booth but decided it wasn't worth it in my budget....I'm going to book a band so if I am spending so much money on that I want people to be enjoying and dacning to the band not waiting on line outside for a photo! But I still really like the idea!!

I have to agree with this. I completely agree I feel the photobooth really takes away a lot from the wedding. There will be plenty of picture taking going on. I like the cigar roller idea. My FH wants to do something like this at our wedding. It's definitely something FH and his friends will look forward to and enjoy together.
