Graduation Day Photo Booth at Old Christ Church, Blackpool

Graduation day is one of those moments that deserves to be celebrated properly. The hard work is done, the results are in, and it's time to mark the occasion with family, friends, and a whole lot of memories. We were thrilled to be part of the festivities at Old Christ Church back in March 2026, providing our photo booth hire for what turned out to be a fantastic afternoon and evening.

A Venue With Real Character

Old Christ Church is a genuinely impressive space. The building carries a sense of history and grandeur that makes it feel special the moment you walk in, which is exactly what you want for a milestone event like a graduation. The architecture and atmosphere give photographs a warmth and richness that more generic event spaces simply can't match.

It's the kind of venue that sets the tone beautifully, and our photo booth fitted right in, giving guests something interactive and fun to enjoy between catching up with classmates and posing for the official family photos.

What We Brought to the Day

For this graduation ceremony, we set up our enclosed photo booth, complete with everything needed to make it a hit from the first click to the last. Here's a quick rundown of what was included on the day:

• Capacity for up to 4 people per visit, perfect for group shots with friends and family
• Bespoke print design tailored to the graduation theme
• One print per use, with an upgrade option available for extra copies
• Unlimited visits throughout the event so nobody missed out
• A fun prop box packed with hats, glasses, signs, and plenty more
• A friendly attendant on hand to keep things running smoothly and get guests involved
• An online gallery with high quality digital copies shared via download link
• Full setup and takedown handled by our team
• One idle hour built into the booking, giving flexibility around the ceremony schedule
• Full PLI and insurance certificates provided

Why a Photo Booth Works So Well at Graduations

Graduation ceremonies have a lot of moving parts. There's the formal proceedings, the photographs with lecturers, the proud family portraits, and then the more relaxed socialising that follows. A photo booth sits perfectly in that transition between formal and fun.

Guests can drop in between conversations, grab a friend or two, pick up a silly prop, and walk away with a printed keepsake that actually means something. With our bespoke print design, every strip that came out of the booth that day was specific to the occasion, not a generic template.

The prop box was particularly popular. Mortarboard hats, oversized glasses, graduation sashes, and a handful of cheeky signs made for some genuinely brilliant photos. Our attendant was kept busy all evening, which is always a great sign.

A Day Worth Celebrating

There's something really rewarding about being part of a graduation. These events represent years of dedication and effort, and the atmosphere on the day reflects that. Old Christ Church gave the whole occasion a sense of occasion that matched the achievement being celebrated.

We loved every moment of being involved, and the smiles coming out of the booth told us everything we needed to know.
