In this episode of Wedding Day Podcast, host Sonja Babich and co-host Alexis Sanabria, Publisher of Oregon Wedding Day and Washington Wedding Day, sit down in Seattle with Max Losee and Michelle Michaels of Voast — a video guest book company bringing heart, humor and innovation to the wedding experience.

What began as a creative twist on the traditional guest book has quickly become a must-have memory-maker for modern weddings. With a simple kiosk-style booth and customizable prompts, Voast invites guests to share meaningful stories, sweet wishes and spontaneous moments on camera — no handwriting required. The booth is self-run and easy to set up, removing the need for on-site staffing and making it accessible to weddings and events nationwide.

Max, a longtime filmmaker, and Michelle, a digital marketing expert, explain how their background in documentary storytelling and tech led to the development of Voast. The booth’s built-in light ring and interactive screen allow guests to record their messages whenever they feel inspired — and the inclusion of personalized prompts ensures content is heartfelt, hilarious and totally unique to each couple. “Fun for your guests, and a gift for you,” Michelle quips — and it’s true. Couples receive a full edit that captures their community’s love and emotional moments, along with all the raw clips.

Throughout the conversation, Sonja and Alexis explore how Voast fills the videography gap for couples who may not hire a full film team — or who simply want more candid, unscripted memories. The hosts reflect on their own regrets about not having video from their weddings, making the case for why this interactive approach has staying power far beyond passing trends like 360 booths.

The conversation also dives into Voast’s thoughtful design. From intuitive software and cloud-upload capabilities to optional add-ons like their video book keepsake, every part of the user experience is meant to be seamless. Max shares how the idea was first tested at his own wedding — and how his and co-founder Ben’s vision grew through DIY prototyping, pandemic-era pivots and a growing wave of couples wanting more meaningful ways to engage their guests.

Whether for weddings, milestone birthdays or corporate galas, Voast is carving out a niche as the emotional core of the modern event — inviting guests to leave behind more than a scribble.
