Local Penrith-based photo booth and selfie pod hire for weddings, birthdays and corporate events across Cumbria, the Eden Valley and Ullswater. Instant prints, brilliant props, and an attendant who actually pays attention.
Funny Photo Booth has been based in Penrith since 2010. Our kit lives at CA11 8NW, which means when you book a photo booth for your Penrith wedding or party, we're not driving over the M6 from Manchester — we're ten minutes down the road. That sounds small, but it's the difference between a relaxed setup an hour before guests arrive and a frantic one with the venue manager checking the time.
We've worked at most of the venues you'd be considering. Wedding receptions at North Lakes Hotel & Spa on Ullswater Road, country house days at Askham Hall, garden parties at Roundthorn Country House, lake-side celebrations at the Inn on the Lake, and barn weddings at Long Acre Barn — we know the loading bays, the lift sizes, the spots where the wifi gets patchy. Our most popular option is the selfie pod, but we also bring a vintage booth and a full studio rig when the day calls for it.
Three booths to choose from, each one ready for Penrith weddings, birthdays, corporate evenings and milestone parties. Pick the one that fits your day.
Sleek, modern, ring-light lit. Looks at home in the conservatory at Roundthorn or against a clean wall at the Rheged Centre. Custom welcome screen, instant digital sharing, tidy footprint for tighter venues.

Penrith is right in the heart of some of the prettiest wedding country in the north. Whether you're getting married at Askham Hall, having a barn reception at Long Acre Barn, or saying "I do" by the water at Inn on the Lake, our booth blends in with the day rather than fighting the room for attention.

Couples around Penrith and Ullswater have been booking us since 2010. Once the dance floor opens, the booth is usually the second busiest spot in the room — and the guest book is something you'll keep going back to long after the wedding's done.
Wedding Hire DetailsIf you've not seen one before, a selfie pod is the modern, open-air cousin of the traditional photo booth. There's no curtain, no awkward squeezing onto a bench — just a sleek standing pod with a touch screen, a ring light, and a printer that drops a photo into your hand seconds after you've struck a pose.
It's the booth most Penrith couples and event organisers go for, and there's a practical reason: it suits the venues round here. Period rooms at country houses, barns with low beams, marquees with limited space, conservatories with glass walls — a selfie pod fits where a full enclosed booth would feel cramped.
Every selfie pod hire in Penrith includes setup and packdown, an attendant on the night, instant prints, digital sharing by QR or AirDrop, and a prop box that genuinely gets used. From £300 for the 2-hour Classic package — see the pricing table above for the full lineup.
Check Selfie Pod Availability
A photo booth at a corporate do does two jobs at once. It gets people talking — the awkward "we've not met yet" moment dissolves the second props come out — and it puts your branding on every print that walks out the door.
We work with Penrith and Eden District businesses on fully branded booths: your logo on the prints, your colours on the screen, your hashtag on the digital share. Set the share to post straight to LinkedIn or Instagram and you've got organic reach long after the event has packed up.
Get a Corporate QuoteA locally-owned booth, kit that turns up working, and an attendant who actually pays attention. Simple stuff, done properly, since 2010.
If you're tying the knot anywhere from Penrith out to the Lakes, the Eden Valley or up to Carlisle, our wedding package handles all the small stuff — print design, attendant, guest book, idle setup — so you don't have to think about it on the day.

A few words from couples and event organisers we've worked with around Penrith and the Eden Valley.
"Booked the selfie pod for our wedding at North Lakes Hotel and it was the best add-on we paid for. Andon set up before the speeches finished, the queue never stopped, and our guest book is full of brilliant photos with handwritten notes. Would book again in a heartbeat."
"Hired the vintage pod for my mum's 70th at Roundthorn. Honest pricing, no fuss, and the props had three generations of my family in stitches. Even my granddad had a go, which is saying something."
"We booked the booth for a corporate evening at Long Acre Barn. Branded prints with our logo, smooth setup, and a load of the photos ended up on LinkedIn the next morning. Easy to book, easy to deal with — exactly what you want for a work do."
