Photo booth hire Yorkshire Dales: weddings dale by dale
The Yorkshire Dales National Park covers a huge sweep of upland, and each valley has its own character. Rather than one list, here are the venues our team has worked at, grouped by dale.
Wharfedale and Bolton Abbey
Lower Wharfedale is where many Dales weddings happen, around the Bolton Abbey Estate and the villages upstream towards Grassington. The River Wharfe runs through it all, past priory ruins, stepping stones and old stone bridges.
- The Devonshire Arms – a hotel and spa on the Bolton Abbey Estate looking out over Wharfedale.
- The Tithe Barn, Bolton Abbey – a Grade II* listed 16th-century barn overlooking the Bolton Abbey Priory ruins, where an oak booth looks completely at home.
- The Priests House, Barden – an early 16th-century house in the shadow of Barden Tower.
- The Red Lion, Burnsall – a 16th-century riverside inn beside the River Wharfe and Burnsall Bridge.
- The Gamekeeper’s Inn, Threshfield – a former gamekeeper’s cottage near Grassington with a vaulted, oak-beamed wedding suite.
Craven and Ribblesdale
West of Skipton, the land opens out towards Malham and the Three Peaks, with the market town of Settle at the foot of Ribblesdale and the famous Settle–Carlisle railway heading north.
- The Coniston Hotel, Coniston Cold – a hotel on a 1,400-acre estate around a 24-acre lake, between Skipton and Settle.
- Falcon Manor, Settle – a restored country manor with boutique bedrooms and a Pavilion with views over the Dales.
Wensleydale
Further north, Wensleydale is broader and greener, known for its cheese, its waterfalls at Aysgarth and its castles.
- Bolton Castle, Castle Bolton – a Grade I listed castle completed in 1399 and once home to Mary, Queen of Scots. Black and white portraits inside medieval stone walls are something special.
- The Garden Rooms at Tennants, Leyburn – a purpose-built events venue in the market town of Leyburn, opened in 2015.
On the edge of the Dales
- Chevin Country Park Hotel & Spa, Otley – a woodland hotel with three lakes and lodges, where lower Wharfedale meets the outskirts of Leeds.

Choosing a booth for a Dales venue
Stone, oak and open fires set the tone for most Yorkshire Dales wedding venues, which is why our Vintage Booth is such a popular choice here. Hand-crafted from solid oak with a choice of backdrops, it suits inns like The Red Lion or The Gamekeeper’s Inn and barns like the Tithe Barn. Vintage photo booth hire in the Yorkshire Dales starts from £625.
For a more polished, editorial feel – at The Devonshire Arms, Falcon Manor or Bolton Castle – our Glam Booth is the Kardashian-style photo booth Yorkshire Dales couples love for its black and white portraits, white backdrop and flattering beauty lighting. It starts from £650, and Vintage clients can upgrade to it for £25.
Our staffed AI Photo Booth is also available, with AI backgrounds, artistic styles, avatars and face swap, printed instantly.
What every staffed booth includes
- 3 hours as standard; extra time is £150 per hour

Add Guest Book Management for £39. Full pricing is explained in our photo booth price guide.
Wedding DJ and photo booth in the Yorkshire Dales
Book your DJ through our sister company EventsDJ and you can combine music and booth as our Wedding DJ & Photo Booth package, saving money compared with booking separately. The Evening DJ package runs for five hours, and cold spark fountains or a sax player can be added. With a DJ booked, you can also choose our self-service Party Pod or Digital Pod, which suit a relaxed inn reception where you would like photos running alongside your DJ all evening.
Need a DJ too? Our sister company EventsDJ provides wedding DJs across Yorkshire and the North.
Planning tips for a Dales wedding
- Plan for the weather. Dales days can change quickly, so a booth indoors gives guests something fun to do if the drinks reception moves inside.
- Make the most of winter. Dark evenings come early in the hills from October, and a booth is a cosy focal point for a winter wedding by the fire.
- Think about guest stays. Many Dales venues have rooms or are surrounded by cottages, so guests often stay late – a good reason to consider extra booth time.
- Book early. Couples usually book 12–24 months ahead. A booking fee secures your date, and the balance is due 14 days before.
Parties and celebrations in the Dales
We also cover milestone birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas parties and corporate events in Skipton, Settle, Grassington, Leyburn and the villages in between.
Nearby areas we cover
We also cover Harrogate & Knaresborough, Thirsk, Northallerton & Ripon, Bradford and the Ribble Valley just over the Lancashire border. See every location on our areas we cover page.

What a cracking experience we had at a wedding yesterday with Selfie Star! Overall a friendly, humorous but professional service! He even let me take the horses head to the dance floor, I mean, what more could you want! Would absolutely recommend to a friend. You thoroughly deserve the top marks in this review!
We met Sally and Wayne at a wedding fair and hiring them was the best decision ever ( despite already having a DJ provided within our wedding package at Aldwark Manor) we knew it would be an extra cost but we were willing to do this as we wanted Wayne as our DJ , and he was worth every penny, he made our wedding exactly what we wanted he listened to our preferences and tailored the music to our taste. The guests absolutely loved him. He also helped organise the dance floor which I wanted and provided letters. Sally on the photobooth was equally amazing, guests had such a laugh and kept Sally busy. Definitely a must have at any party. The added bonus of us receiving a copy of every photo taken that night and placed in a box was simply brilliant myself and my husband were able to look through these at our leisure and have a good giggle. So a massive thank you to both Sally & Wayne and if your looking for a top class DJ and photo booth look no further we highly recommend these guys they are the best.
Absolutely amazing DJ and photobooth service for our wedding! Communication beforehand was excellent and they made everything so easy and stress-free from start to finish. They arrived punctually, were incredibly professional, and did everything we asked for with no problem at all. The DJ kept the dancefloor full all night and was also a fantastic MC, helping the whole evening run smoothly and keeping the atmosphere lively and fun. The photobooth was such a hit with all our wedding guests too! We couldn’t have asked for better entertainment for our special day and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or event.
We hired the selfie pod and it was great, everyone loved it and had lots of fun taking photos. Booking was easy and it was dropped off without issue. 😀
Could not recommend selfie star enough. Our guests absolutely loved the booth and then a week later we got all the photos which was amazing to see. Thank you for everything
I would like to thank and highly recommend Wayne Baker and Selie Star Events. I got to know Wayne around last Christmas time and remain good friends and business colleagues. I run an entertainment business myself and from time to time we need to depend on other services and djs to help us through busy or sick periods. Wayne has stepped in a many times for us and his work and setup is so professional. Wayne has provided a great service every time we have used him. Our clients have also left some great feedback. Here at MDG Entertainment we thrive on delivering a great product for a great value of money to individual events. It is hard to find in the business people like Wayne who work to our award winning standards. It is a pleasure to be able to use his service and know he will always deliver upon booking him. Many thanks Michael @ MDG Entertainment.
Booked for our daughters wedding, booking process and communication all excellent Everyone had a great time in the photo booth, good quality pictures
I can't express enough how thrilled we were with Selfie Star's photo booth and DJ services at my niece's wedding. The solid oak photo booth added a touch of tradition and elegance to the event, and it was non-stop fun throughout the evening. Sally and Wayne Baker are an incredible duo, engaging guests from both the USA and the UK, creating an unforgettable party atmosphere. Wayne's music kept the dance floor alive, and the audio guest book was a unique and cherished addition. Everyone at the wedding couldn't stop raving about the quality of the venue and the amazing atmosphere created by Selfie Star. Thank you, Sally and Wayne, for making Charlotte and Matthew's wedding an absolute blast. You truly are stars in your own right, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking to elevate their event experience!
Absolutely made our night having the led dance floor at our wedding. Wayne was fantastic, customer service second to none. Arrived on time, no hassle, looked AMAZING!!😍😍 Would highly recommend Selfie Star Events.

we loved our photo booth for our wedding last month. Not only did we hire that from Selfie Star, we hired the DJ, venue uplighting and sparkler fountains. Wayne and Sally was very accommodating for our need after we had to change a few things and move our timeline forward which wasn't too much hassel for them. would 100000% recommend to anyone looking for entertainment for their special event. we also want to wish Wayne and Sally all the best in their business . Mr & Mrs Whelan
Absolutely amazing! The best Photo Booth I’ve ever hired and the lady who brought it was such a lovely lady, my daughter even got her up for a selfie on the booth! 10/10 will absolutely book again at any given opportunity.
We hired Selfie Star for the evening of our wedding. It was fantastic, all of our guests enjoyed it very much!
We booked Selfie Star Photo Booth for our wedding and honestly it was one of the best investments we made. We went for the Kardashian filter to match our monochrome wedding theme and it looked incredible — the photos came out so stylish and elevated. Our guests absolutely loved it and were using it all night. The fact guests could have unlimited prints was amazing, and every print strip was personalised with our Mr & Mrs name and wedding date, with 3 photos on each print which looked so professional. Sally also shared a download link afterwards with all of the images, which was such a lovely touch. One of our favourite parts was coming home with a beautiful gift box containing copies of all the prints for us to add into our guest book and keep forever. Sally was fantastic throughout and everything ran so smoothly. We couldn’t recommend Selfie Star enough!
Selfie Star were excellent from start to finish - their communication was prompt and clear and set up on the day was extremely smooth and efficient. The Photo Booth itself was an absolute hit and such good fun. Cannot recommend highly enough! Thanks so much for such great service .
We met Wayne & Sally at a wedding fayre. They were both really lovely and approachable, discussing all of their options & packages. Their communication was excellent & their app is easy to use for updates, info on your package and payments. Having used photobooths before, I can say the tech from Selfie Star was the best quality we’ve seen! We had the ICON! Wayne on the night of our wedding was brilliant, super friendly & arrived in plenty of time for the start of the evening celebrations! He had a great attitude with all of our guests, creating a fab atmosphere and we all certainly had fun! We also added late to our booking an audio guestbook, which was no trouble and brilliant to use! Listening back to the messages has been a real highlight. The turnaround on the online photo gallery & audio messages was amazingly quick too, coming back in just a few days after our wedding! Would highly recommend to anyone for any function! Huge thank you! 5*!
We booked Selfie Star Photobooths after seeing the photobooth in action at a wedding fayre. Booking with them was seamless and everything was so easy to access on the portal. On the day, set up was done with no issues whatsoever and our guests were free to enjoy the fun this brought to our evening. All of our guests commented on how fantastic the photobooth was and how well it was operated. It brought so much fun and energy to the evening and was loved by everyone. The photos were absolutely fantastic, we loved going through the prints and the digital copies of the photos! Absolutely incredible, thank you so much we are forever grateful.
selfie star made our wedding!! run by two of the nicest people we have ever met, Wayne and sal went above and beyond for us to make our special day run as smoothly as possible. They even took all the stress away before hand and communicated with the hotel about arranging the room and making sure everything we had hired from them would fit, they contacted the tribute band we had coming to the wedding and made their set up easier by connect up to selfie stars equipment which made our turn around from the day in to the evening party much quicker! The dancefloor, star light back drop and light up shoots completely transformed our room, it looked amazing!! we also had the dancing with clouds and cold spark fire work for our first dance which was also looked amazing! selfie star also hosted our full day and was our DJ Which I believe made the day run so well. They made us feel very special and organised all the special parts of the day to make sure they went as well as they possibly could and really made the special moments count! THe music was brilliant they played a mixture of songs we asked for and then a mixture of songs from 80s 90s and now which was great the dancefloor was full of people all night! highly recommended this company they are fantastic, we also had the table selfie centerpiece aswell which we and all our guests had lots of fun with and captured loads of memories! Thank you Wayne and sal you were fantastic and we can't wait to have another party with selfie star!!!
We had a photobooth at our wedding, this went down really well with our Moulin Rouge themed evening reception. I would recommend without any hesitation great company to work with. Thankyou Tony and Stefan
We had the most amazing wedding day and being able to capture such fun photos with SelfieStar was amazing. The photo quality was fantastic and the team on the day were so fun and helpful. I’ve been to many other weddings and this is by far the best photo booth I’ve used - so I’m glad it was ours! Would definitely recommend 😄
