Sapphire Stories

Sapphire Stories hires out photo and memory experiences for weddings, parties and events, delivered, set up and styled for the customer. The idea came from the founders noticing at a friend's wedding how clunky and expensive the guest photo setup was.

The experiences include The Plot Twist, an instant print camera hire with packages of 40 or 80 prints from £69; The Editor, a digital camera and printer in one; The Storyteller, five disposable-style cameras that each take 500 pictures; The Shared Story, which turns guests' phone photos into printed keepsakes; and The Cameo, a tap-to-capture guest photo experience. They also offer a video guestbook in partnership with Memoring.

The kit is sent out a couple of days before the event with a return label, and digital photos are sent within four weeks of its return.
