Audio Guestbook vs 360 Video Booth: Which One Is Right for Your Event?
When planning an unforgettable event, it’s often the little touches that leave the biggest impression. In recent years, audio guestbooks and 360 video booths have both exploded in popularity, and for good reason. They offer two very different ways to capture the energy, emotion, and personality of your celebration. But which one is right for your wedding, corporate event or party in Sydney?
Let’s take a closer look at both options so you can decide what fits your vibe.
Audio Guestbooks: Sentimental, Raw and Timeless
An audio guestbook is as simple as it is powerful. Picture a vintage-style phone sitting quietly at your reception. Guests walk past, pick up the receiver, and speak their thoughts. No camera, no crowd, just a private moment to say something from the heart (or something cheeky, depending on the guest).
What you end up with is a collection of voice messages that capture the laughter, emotion, and energy of the day in a way that no written guestbook ever could.
It’s ideal for:
Weddings and engagements
Milestone birthdays
Memorials or tribute events
Baby showers
People tend to relax into it, especially after a few drinks. They leave heartfelt advice, hilarious stories or sweet wishes in their own voice, something you’ll want to replay for years to come.
At No Filter, we provide retro-style audio guestbooks that are easy to use, beautifully styled, and delivered to you with all the recordings after the event. It’s all care, no hassle.
360 Video Booths: High-Energy, Glam and Totally Shareable
While the audio guestbook captures words, the 360 video booth captures movement, energy and personality. A high-def camera rotates around your guests, recording a dynamic slow-motion video that’s pure fun. Add in some music, overlays and effects, and it becomes instant social media gold.
It’s perfect for:
Corporate activations and product launches
Weddings, school formals and gala dinners
Birthday parties and end-of-year functions
Any event with a red carpet or cocktail vibe
What makes it stand out is how much fun people have with it. They twirl, dip, pose, dance, and throw confetti, then receive an edited video they can share instantly via QR code or Airdrop.
No Filter’s 360 booths are sleek, safe and fully staffed by our team. We help guests get the best shots while making the whole process smooth and stylish.
So Which One Should You Choose?
Here’s the truth. They serve completely different purposes. One captures emotion and voice. The other captures movement and energy. And both give your guests something unforgettable to take part in.
If your event is more intimate or sentimental (like a wedding or memorial), the audio guestbook adds a beautiful emotional layer. If it’s all about the vibe, the visuals and the party atmosphere, the 360 booth is the showstopper.
But you don’t have to choose just one.
Many of our Sydney clients combine both. Their guests leave a meaningful voice message on the phone, then head to the 360 booth for a glamorous video moment. It’s the best of both worlds and gives you two completely different types of memories to keep.
At No Filter, we make it easy to include both options in a single package. Whether you're planning a wedding, birthday bash or end-of-year corporate celebration, we’ll help you create an experience that’s both heartfelt and fun.
