Which Dunbar venues suit a photo booth?
Dunbar and the coast around it have everything from hotel function rooms and golf clubhouses to estate venues and village halls. A photo booth works in almost any of them, as long as there is a flat indoor space and a socket nearby.
- Wedding venues near Dunbar. Broxmouth Courtyard on the edge of town and the log cabin at Ravensheugh Beach are popular with couples who want the coast in their photos. We have worked at both. Ravensheugh has no mains power, only a generator hook-up, so the booth runs from the generator your marquee supplier provides.
- Hotels and clubhouses. Good for birthdays, anniversaries and work dinners, and usually easy for loading.
- Village and community halls. Ideal for ceilidhs and family parties. Check the hall’s hire times include our set-up hour.

What to check with your Dunbar venue
Most problems on the day come from small details nobody asked about. These are the questions to put to your Dunbar venue before you book a booth.
- Access time. We need the room around an hour before the booth opens. If you need us set up earlier, tell us before you book.
- Parking for loading. Our terms ask for suitable parking close by for loading and unloading. We are happy to speak to the venue for you.
- Space and power. The Bubble Booth needs about 2m wide by 1.8m deep, 2m of height and a standard socket within 5m.
- Indoors or under cover. Coastal weather changes fast, so the booth needs to be inside or fully covered.
- Internet, if you want sharing. Online sharing needs a stable connection with at least 1MB/s upload.
Tip from the Bubble team
Send us the venue contact when you enquire. We will check access, parking and the best spot for the booth with them directly. For space details, see how much space a photo booth needs.
Which booth suits a Dunbar event?
- Is it a wedding? The flower wall and the open air booth suit most wedding venues and look good in the background of your photos.
- Is it a big group? The Bubble Booth fits up to 10 at once, and the open air booth fits 1 to 9 with no walls.
- Is the space tight? Tell us the room size and we will suggest the booth that fits best.
Three we recommend looking at first
- The Bubble Booth: our inflatable signature booth, lit from inside and great for parties.
- The Open Air booth: a golden backdrop and room for the whole dance floor.
- Wedding photo booth hire: packages with a guest book and an online gallery.
