(BPT) - Wedding season is here, with couples everywhere looking forward to what they're told will be one of the "greatest days of their life," celebrating their love with family and friends. But the day goes by in a joyful blur - how can you be sure to capture meaningful moments with the loved ones who made it so special? Will all of your guests have the opportunity to fully express their greetings and well-wishes to you and your partner? While not everyone needs a microphone moment, capturing messages from all your loved ones is something you won't want to miss.
Collecting personal messages from friends and family
Face it, during a busy event like a wedding, it can be challenging to have - and remember - extended, meaningful interactions with every guest. One great way to preserve the feelings of the day is to collect their personal messages.
Setting out a guestbook is a start, but you want to be sure guests have the opportunity to speak directly to you - in a way that lets you relive the memories, from one anniversary to the next.
It can be risky to leave the recording of messages up to a videographer, who might not get a chance to film every guest speaking into the camera during your action-packed event. On top of that, hiring a videographer adds considerable expense to your wedding budget.
The solution: A video booth
A much more interactive and fun option for wedding guests is a video booth, which allows guests to record their own personalized messages and toasts to the happy couple. Video booths allow guests to take their time, choose when and how they want to participate (such as alone or in a group), and their messages will be completely personalized - a live expression of their personalities and well-wishes, from the tearful and heartfelt to the lighthearted and even hilarious.
Setting up a video booth will let their personalities shine, for a wedding moment they will absolutely love participating in, and that you will enjoy watching for years to come.
Pro tip: Assign a couple of members of the wedding party to invite and encourage guests to come over to the video booth to record their messages, making sure to capture specific guests who may need assistance, such as elderly relatives.

You can easily record video messages from loved ones in real time at your wedding to create a digital keepsake you'll return to again and again using Voast, an easy-to-use video booth that's easy to set up, and lets you capture and share meaningful moments at weddings and other events.
With Voast, capturing heartfelt "video toasts" from your guests is easy and fun.

What sets Voast apart is the ability to make it deeply personal to your wedding. You can tailor the experience by creating custom prompts or questions for your guests to answer in their messages - thoughtful, fun or heartfelt reflections like "Share a favorite memory with us," "What's your best marriage advice?" or "When did you first think we were meant to be?" You can also make it your own visually by uploading a custom cover photo.
A Voast video booth is easy and fun for guests to interact with, and it's small and flexible enough to set up at any kind of wedding: traditional, destination or DIY.
