As professional Wedding Photographers and crazy camera collectors (over 100) we just love old things, great images, and fun times. Shooting weddings and corporate events, we couldn't help but to notice just how much fun the people at the booth were having and we're not going to lie, we REALLY wanted a Volkswagen Bus, so Voila! Having taken multiple long distance road trips and seeing VW buses cruise down American roads, we wanted the nostalgic experience these buses provide. We decided to bring one to the Metro area, and of course there had to be a camera in it.

One of the best vendors and experiences at our wedding! This was such a cool and unique touch to the vibe. We knew we wanted something different and fun for our guests to enjoy at the wedding and this was just that. They are very pleasant to work with and they make the process of booking and creating the design of the photo strip very effortless. We are so happy we went Metro Photobooth Bus for our wedding!

Metro photobooth bus was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. We wanted a Photo Booth that was fun and unique and metro photobooth bus provided exactly that. They were easy to work with and really responsive. All of our photos came to our email quickly after the wedding! We honestly still get compliments on how fun this Photo Booth was! We loved that the inside was fun but also that they really decorated outside which made for fun and unique photos throughout the night. We highly recommend booking them! Our only regret was not booking them for a longer time.

Our experience with Metrophoto bus was smooth and efficient, from my first email and payment through their portal system to the final payment and day of service. I sent over our invitations, and the team matched our aesthetic perfectly for our photo strips. As soon as it was announced that we had a photo booth outside, our guests ran out to it and had a ball! I highly recommend this service if you want great memories and a great moment for you and your guests!

Metro Photobooth is such a unique photobooth and I loved the shasta/champer vibes. I was concerned people may not use it because it was outside, but we had a lot of guests use and love it! Sara was very response to my emails. However, we did receive the wrong booth. Our contract was for the Abbey - a black and white shasta that went more with our theme and what we received was the Sadie - a cream colored shasta. When I reached out to the company they stated that the initial proposal had Sadie so there must have been some confusion even though the contract clearly said the Abbey. We still loved the photobooth and recommend booking them, but I would triple check they know which photobooth is in the contract.

A preferred vendor at our venue. The Metro Photobooth Bus was an absolute hit with our guests at Perona Farms - The Barn. Photography and videography were top priorities for us, but it also added something truly special. We saw "Pretty Penney" and thought she would be perfect for our wedding. Not only did it provide fun and unique wedding favors for our guests, but we also received an album of all the photos they took of us and our guests. This added a whole new layer to our wedding memories—capturing moments in a way that traditional photography and videography might not.
If it fits within your budget, the Metro Photobooth Bus is absolutely worth the investment!

Photos are absolutely one of the most important things to me. And Metro Photobooth Bus did not disappoint with providing a unique experience!! The BEST! Such a cool photobooth! It was a huge hit at our wedding at Olde Mill Inn! Everyone was having fun and using all the props! Our attendant was the absolute sweetest! We got Abbey the Photo Shasta and it was beautiful - every detail was perfect. And we got all the photos the very next day! The whole team was great from the very first email up until our wedding day. If you want a different photobooth that makes your wedding standout, you HAVE to book with Metro Photobooth Bus!!!!!

I had saw on Instagram Metro Photo Bus even before I was engaged and knew they were going to be the first vendor I booked once a date was set. I had a retro/fall wedding and it fit the vibes perfectly. Our guests loved it and couldn’t stop talking about it. Sara & Fred were so easy to work with and answered emails so quickly. 10/10

Metro Photo Bus was one of the best choices we made to make our wedding feel extra special! My wife & I got married September 2024 at Terrain DelVal in Doylestown and the photo bus we chose (Penny) was the perfect addition to our special day! The photo us fit in perfectly with the natural beauty of Terrain and gave our guests an extra reason to spend sometime out on the patio at our reception. So many of our guests had wonderful things to say about the photo bus and how much fun they had using it! The owners Sara and Fred were attentive to all of our needs riding up to the wedding and then provided us with ALL the images from our day - it allowed us to relive all the fun our guests and us had that day! We can not recommend Metro Photo Bus more!

We can’t recommend Metro Photo Bus enough!!! We used them for our Sept. 15th wedding in the Hudson Valley, and they were the perfect addition to our special day.
The company was so easy to work with and accommodating to create our perfect photo strip design. The attendant was so helpful and engaging. Our guests loved the bus and the props, and couldn’t get over how well it complimented our venue’s aesthetic. We were sent the full photo library very soon after and loved seeing how much fun our guests had in the bus. Do not hesitate to book Metro Photo! You will not regret it.

Hiring metro photo bus was a great addition to our wedding! My husband and I weren't sure that we wanted a traditional photo booth, but then we stumbled upon metro photo bus. We had "Penny" at our wedding and all of our guests were raving about how cute and unique the bus was! Sara was a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process and we have zero complaints on how everything ran the day of. Sara also sent me a digital copy of all the pictures taken the entire wedding, which were fun to look at!

The Metro Photo Booth Bus was the perfect addition to our wedding! I had seen them at a previous wedding and absolutely loved the bus. It was pouring on our wedding day and I was nervous about people going to the bus HOWEVER the attendants helped each and every guest with umbrellas outside to the bus and went above and beyond. I got a copy of all the photos digitally and hard copy. I cannot recommend them enough!

WOW!!!! The amount of compliments we received for our photobooth was ten fold! Sara and her team were such a pleasure to work with and provided everything. My photographer had a blast taking photos of us with Penny we would absolutely do it all over again. We got married in February and the Photo Booth attendant stayed outside in the cold the entire time helping our guests, like WHAT?! thank you thank you thank you!!! If you’re on the fence of hiring Metro Photo Bus let me help you and say DO IT, I promise you won’t regret it.

Metro Photobooth was perfect for our wedding and all our friends were complimenting us on how great the bus it self looked. That was all before they even got to go inside the take pictures. Fred was so helpful all night working with each large group, couples and especially my nephew who took so many solo pictures. Couldn’t imagine a better photobooth for our wedding and so thankful we got them to come our special day.

We were able to get unique take home pictures with some of our guests and received digital copies of all the photos taken. The props were so fun and choosing our design for the photostrip was another touch that did not go unnoticed by our guests. I would highly recommend booking them! The two photos I am attaching are from our photographer, Jaci Berkopec, and then the photo strip is one of ours from the photo booth bus! :)

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Metro Photobooth Bus!! They are so friendly and easy to communicate with. We went with Abby the Camper and she was so cute! They supply all of the cutest accessories and the camper itself is so beautiful inside and out. They do not miss a detail. The best part is that you will get digital images of all of the pictures taken so that you won't miss a thing! Seeing the photos that were taken by all of our guests was so much fun! Full disclosure, we weren't even going to do a photobooth until we saw Metro. If you're on the fence, definitely check them out!!

Metrophotobus was one of the first things I booked for my wedding and I always knew it was going to be one of my absolute most favorite details! I cannot recommend them enough. The “Penny” vintage trailer was not only so cute on the outside with the romantic marquee light and vintage suitcase stack, but the photo strips are seriously the cutest! The lighting and backdrop all make the most flattering and fun photos. Also, after the wedding, they sent me all the guests’ photos! It was so fun for us to look through and see what a great time our guests had in the photo booth! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!

Communication was a breeze throughout the entire process. Simple email correspondence, touching base on photo strip design and specific timing for arrival. I had to change several times due to logistical complications, even up to the week before, and the team was super flexible and chill with it.
The day of was slated to rain so they reached out to confirm plans even offering a full refund for a heavy downpour if canceled before 9am the day of. Of course I wasn't going to forego the photo booth and it was one of the best aspects of that night.
The golden curtain decor and pillows of Sadie is just immaculate and it really shows in the photos. There's a glamour in the snapshots that just blows so many other typical wedding photo booths out of the water. Completely satisfied with how they turned out. Received a full digital library afterwards!

We loved our experience working with Metro Photobus. We booked Lucy the VW bus for our wedding at The Conservatory in September 2023. Lucy arrived promptly onsite and was ready for pictures to be taken right on schedule. Our guests loved the idea of the photobus and they frequently complimented it; it was such a fun and unique way to elevate the photo booth experience! There were many props and the entire environment of the bus was great. Our photobooth attendant was very helpful throughout the night. We also wanted to add into our review -- this is a great idea if you have kids at your wedding. The kids who attended absolutely loved the photobus and it gave them something fun to do other than dancing or sitting around with family; plus now they have cute photo strips with their parents and grandparents. We are so glad that we decided to book Metro Photobus and would recommend to any other couple!

Sara and Fred were fabulous from start to finish. What an incredible service. Our friends and family had never seen the photobus at a wedding before, and it did not disappoint. We got hit with a crazy hurricane and they were so accommodating to make sure we still got the value they’d promised (and offered a full refund if the rain was too much). The photos came out amazing and we are so grateful for what it added to our the memory of such a beautiful day.

Metro Photo Booth Bus added a lot of fun to our wedding. Many of our wedding guests made excellent use of the photo booth and props. We had a lot of children at our wedding who also enjoyed using the photo booth. We used the bus itself as a prop in some of our wedding photos. It was a great addition to our vintage theme wedding. The photo booth operator was very nice and professional. He offered to help me even with items that weren't related to the photo booth. I still love looking at the photo booth image gallery. It was a great way to capture happy memories. I'm so grateful we had it for our wedding. Can't wait to add these precious photos to my scrapbook as a wedding keepsake!

The second I saw Metro Photobooth on our venue's preferred vendor, I begged my *now* husband to book them! It was such a unique photobooth that I'd never seen, and it went so well with our aesthetic for the day. Everyone was raving about it on the day of and is still telling us how great of an addition it was! Our photos came out great and Sara was fantastic (thank you for catching that tick on my dress, Sara!!) running the booth. They're even reprinting the photo strips we lost and mailing them to us.

We rented Sadie the Photo Camper for our wedding. Honestly the best decision for any event. It's so cute and Sarah is very flexible and easy to work with. We had a lot of rain before the event and there were concerns about the photobus being able to be where we wanted it due to mud. Sarah was an absolute champ and placed it exactly where we wanted it. The photobus was very popular with our guests. They also gave us the digital copies of all the photos.
