We can’t thank Maria enough for the wonderful experience she provided with her photobooth at our wedding! From start to finish, she was incredibly professional, always wearing a smile, and went above and beyond to ensure our photos were taken care of. Maria’s sweet and kind personality made her such a joy to work with, and her responsiveness over email made planning so much easier for us. She also helped us create the perfect photo design, bringing our vision to life. If you’re looking for someone reliable and delightful to work with, we highly recommend Maria!

XOXO was fantastic to work with! I highly recommend using a photobooth company that has an attendant – who wants to worry if something goes wrong?! XOXO was awesome with setting up in advance, and was so great making sure people took their printed pics. The best part – the pics came out IMMEDIATELY!! By the time you put your props back, the pics were there. We received all of the extra print outs, and the digital gallery was available within days. Everyone commented on how it was such a fun addition to the reception – every single guest participated, so we have the most fun pictures captured!

Maria was super responsive and helpful in coordinating logistics for the photobooth for our wedding. They were quite flexible regarding the printable options for the photobooth strips (customized graphics, layouts, etc.). They also took care of setup before & after our wedding without us even noticing, which was amazing given everything else we were focused on.
It was truly wonderful working with a company that was professional yet personable, high-quality yet affordable, and very easy to communicate with throughout the whole process.
I'll most certainly be recommending XOXO Photobox to my friends in the area!

We were very pleased to work with XOXO Photobox for our 50th wedding anniversary party. It was easy to book our event and we felt the fee was reasonable and a good value. We had about 150 guests, including 20 children. Maria, our photographer was professional, pleasant to work with and patient. We would highly recommend this company and this photographer.

I recently enjoyed working with XOXO for our Holiday Party, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From start to finish, they were professional, punctual, and made everything super easy. The sleek setup fit perfectly into the venue, adding a fun touch to the celebration.
The quality of the photos was amazing—clear, vibrant, and perfect for sharing on social media or keeping as souvenirs. The selection of props was great, and everyone had a blast using them to capture fun, candid moments.

Maria was very easy to work with! The Photo Booth was one of those costs I think were totally worth it. I really wish that I took more photos in it with friends and that more folks used it cause the photos were so precious! They worked with me to come up with our design, and it matched our invites so nicely. Only thing is that the wrong backdrop color was used. I had switched my mind and they used the first backdrop I had chosen. No biggie

XOXO Photobox provided photobooth services for our wedding, Working with Maria was a very enjoyable experience. The price of the photobooth (including unlimited prints and props) was very budget friendly, and Maria worked with us to design the perfect print template which incorporated some of our iconography that our stationer / designer created. The technicians who worked the booth arrived on time, set up quickly, and were very welcoming and courteous to our guests. I would highly recommend XOXO Photobooth for your next wedding or event.

XOXO Photobox was AMAZING! It was definitely a highlight of the night, and everyone loved it so much. We opted in for the photo album as well, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. My husband and I sat down the next day and looked at all the wonderful and silly photos. It is definitely something that we will cherish. We even talked about using XOXO Photobox again when we do vow renewals and continue to add to our photo album. Maria was so prompt, sweet, and wonderful to work with. I highly recommend them if you're looking for a photobooth at your wedding!

XOXO Photobox was fantastic! They were able to set up early for us and work with our timeline to make things easy for us. Maria made booking them a quick and easy process, and she did a great job communicating with us and answering any questions we had. Our guests loved the photobooth and we had a great time looking at all the pictures in our online gallery after. The photo strips printed at the reception looked great too and are good quality. I can't recommend them highly enough!

I used XOXO Photobox for my Fall 2021 wedding and I could not be happier with the service I received. From initial inquiry, Maria was responsive and helpful. I was excited to book with XOXO Photobox because they offered an enclosed photobooth and a very competitive price. They let you customize the photostrip print so I was able to add an image from our invitation onto the photos and also got to pick the background color. The day of my event, the photobooth was a huge hit! The price includes an attendant, guests could print in 4 different color settings, and XOXO Photobox brought fun props that they santized between shots. My attendant saved copies of all my photos to give to my coordinator at the end of the night so I didnt have to keep track of them. After the event, Maria promptly shared all the digital copies. All in all, I have only great things to say about my experience and would recommend for any wedding!

Maria and Brooke were both extremely kind and helpful when I initially reached out regarding their services. All my questions were answered in detail. When it came closer to my wedding date, they were quick and on top of finalizing details for the photo strips. My husband and I, and all our guests, absolutely had a blast using the photo booth and being silly. They were timely in sending us the digital copies of all the photos. I HIGHLY recommend their services. They are beyond kind, sweet, and good at what they do!

Maria was fantastic to work with from beginning to end! They made the process so simple and one less thing for me to stress about by providing the album for our guests to give us a copy of their photo booth moment and the markers for them to write a message. I loved looking through the photo album the next day. Plus, they had the best props which made it extra fun!!!

We were so happy we chose XOXO Photobooth!
Maria and Brooke were very friendly and easy to work with. They were transparent about their pricing and options from the start (unlike a lot of other options we considered) and did a really nice job with the design of our photostrip!
The photobooth was a huge hit at our wedding, and we love that we were able to take home our guest book/album at the end of the night! The gifs were easy and fun to use, and I loved that we got doubles and backup copies of the photostrips and gifs. The photobooth was a fun and smooth experience for our guests and really got them engaged and having a good time.
On the day of, my husband and I were really busy dancing and mingling. Maria was really kind to find us at the end of the night and see if we wanted to grab a chance at the photobooth just the two of us before she left. It was such a sweet and thoughtful gesture that we really appreciated!
We really love our photos (the funny ones and the truly thoughtful one at the end of the night) and are so grateful for Maria and Brooke!

First of all, we are Asians. We take pictures literally everyday. The quality and service both are fulfilled.
We were browsing around different companies and XoXo photobox Maria was the most responsive person to plan our wedding recital with. It was such a big hit for all of our guests.
We had Sushi and Lobster for our food and guests were more entertained by XoXo Photo booth. We are recommending it all the couples that we know are planning to get married in the near future.

They were great to work with! We found these lovely ladies through thumbtack and I am so glad we did. They offer 3 different backgrounds to choose from (gold, rose gold, silver- all of which are sparkly!) and they bring their own props!
I loved that it was an "open air" type photo booth and you weren't trapped in a small space. They were flexible in their setup and able to sneak in to our venue in between cocktail hour and dinner which was so appreciated!
Each person using the photobooth gets the option of a paper print out of the photo, to send it to yourself and then the bride/groom gets a whole website full of the photos!
You won't be disappointed.

Maria and Brooke were extremely responsive. They made a template based on the design of my wedding invitation, but when I decided I wanted something completely different, they provided a new template in less than an hour. I asked for multiple small adjustments to their new design and the response time was so fast. They definitely work hard to make sure you are happy...and I definitely was.
The photo quality was wonderful and my guests definitely enjoyed using all the props. Would highly recommend them and would love to work with them again for future events.

I researched quite a few photo booth companies and XOXO ended up being the winner. They traveled all the way to Waukegan for my wedding which was great. I had an enclosed photo booth and it was a hit with my guests. XOXO even formatted the photo strips to match my wedding invites! I would totally book them again for special events and refer them to all of my friends getting married. They responded quickly to all of my requests and questions and I couldn't have asked for better service.

For a community event (doggie Halloween Parade at the Museum of Contemporary Art courtyard) my colleague and I retained XOXO to take dog portraits. This was no easy task as the subjects were not always willing models. Maria did a fantastic job in managing moving subjects, averted eyes and general sassiness. She got great shots and the pet owners were thrilled to receive their "pawtraits". Maria was good spirited throughout this sometimes difficult process. XOXO was professional pre, during and post the event, timely and a pleasure to work with. Highly reccommend!

Maria and Brooke would be five stars because of their customer service- Their responses were always prompt and friendly to the point that they felt like family trying to help out at the wedding. Phone call, text, email, they were right there asking if there was anything else we needed.
Maria and Brooke would get a five star rating for their price packaging. Not only is it reasonable, it's beyond affordable. When you look at the other Photo booth companies that are available on here with however many reviews they've garnered and how much they charge, it can make other companies look "cheap" because of how much price gouging they are doing, preying on the principle that if you want something done right for your special day, you're gonna have to pay through the nose. It's simply not true, and the options they offer you are the exact same thing the other companies with giant price tags do. Also, even after the wedding they are just as good about maintaining contact. I asked if they could make our pictures available for download a couple weeks after and the next day it was available again. They are on top of their game. The custom work they do for your photos is phenomenal, they send you proofs, they eliminated any worries I had about this part of our wedding come together.
Lastly, I would give them five stars for the quality of their photos. From the beginning I had asked Maria about bringing extra lighting, because what I found from the lesser photo booth companies was that bad lighting made for terrible photos. She brought them to the wedding, but didn't even need to set it up. EVERYONE LOOKED. SO. GOOD!!!!
I would have thought she had gone through every photo and done touch ups. Not the case at all. Touch screen operating that the guests could use instantly saw how good everything looked, and the prints were ready quickly and looked flawless with our custom borders. She also printed out an additional copy for our scrapbook, which may rival our formal photo wedding album, because everyone was signing next to their photos. We can't get over how good these photos looked. They know what they are doing, and are professional photographers, not some franchised outlet.
Your company is amazing, and I'd consider having a second wedding just to work with XOXO again. I'm half joking, but I do hope we can have them for our next big occasion. You are phenomenal Maria and Brooke!! Thank you SO SO MUCH!

We decided to add a photobooth somewhat last minute and could not be happier with our choice to use XOXO Photobox! They were true professionals from start to finish. I loved the design they custom made for our photo strip and received several compliments on how well it went with our theme! The day of my wedding, they were so easy to work with. They introduced themselves and let me know that everything is good to go.

XOXO Photobox was extremely easy to work with and offered one of the few enclosed photo booth options in Chicago. They were very flexible on start and end times and even came to set up early. The digital file of all our guests pictures was provided to us within 24 hours, which was such a treat since we know we'll have to wait several weeks for photos from our photographer! Highly recommend- best price in Chicago!

I loved using XOXO PhotoBox for our photobooth. Maria and Brooke were very professional and had reasonable prices for what was included in our package! My guests loved the unlimited 4x6 prints, with options to choose the color (color, black/white, sepia) and number of prints provided that night! We also had the option to text the photo to our phones, which was a huge plus. The guests loved the props provided, and the attendant was friendly. Thank you for making our day more memorable for all!

We used XOXO PHOTOBOX for my sister's wedding in June and everyone loved it! Working with Maria and her team was very easy from day one, and they were responsive to all the questions I had regarding the rental. I loved the choices of backdrops they had, props and they were even able to incorporate the overall wedding design/theme to the print-outs. One of the thing our guests liked was the option to send a digital version directly to their phone. I would recommend using XOXO PHOTOBOX to any bride and would consider them for other events in the future!

XOXO was great to work with!! They created a personalized design for our pictures, based on our theme and colors. The price was great and we were able to add on a scrapbook which contained all the photos taken in the booth. We are defiantly happy we decided to use XOXO for our Photo Booth at our wedding!!
