Imagine this, your guest step on the stage with a beautiful part of the wedding venue in the background, they pose and a robotic arm swoops in to capture the moment, slow motion hair flipping, dress twirling, champaign sparkling and all in cinematic quality and super slow motion. Sounds like you are at the oscars, but its not Hollywood, its your Wedding in Cyprus.
Say hello to the Glambot, the latest trend for Luxury Wedding entertainment, now in Cyprus.

What is a Glambot?
A Glambot is a cinematic Robot with a six axis arm attached to a professional cinema or mirrorless camera. While cinema Robots have been around for years, they cost sometimes upwards of 200,000 USD and require multiple operators and a long time to setup and take down, making them available only for high end Hollywood productions.
With the evolution of Robotics, Six Axis Robots have become more widely available, while still costing in the 10s of thousands, they are at a level where they can be available for luxury events such as Weddings, Product Launches, Red Carpets and more.
In 2016, Cole Walliser started using high speed cameras to capture celebrities on the Red Carpet starting the Glambot trend. Over the past two years, glambot has spread around the world to weddings and high end parties.
How does a Glambot work?
While cinebots are difficult to Operate, Glambots have software that makes it quick and easy to capture and share reels. While using different software, all work with the same principle:
- The guest poses in front of the Glambot
- The director activates the bot which records clip in a few seconds
- The Reel is immediately available for download via a screen or Ipad
Glambot’s tend to come with two operators, a director who guides the guest and tells them what to do and an operator who activates the Glambot and ensures its smooth operation.
Why is a Glambot great for a Luxury Wedding?
Wedding’s are getting more luxurious every year, what was considered a high end wedding 5 years ago, is the norm in today’s wedding world. Vendors, Service Providers and products strive to be more competitive and better at a budget price.
A luxurious wedding is defined by a few key aspects and how seamlessly all of those elements come together:
- Location,
- Design,
- Personalisation,
- Quality,
- Guest Experience,
The Glambot offers a high end experience to Wedding Guest, it is a WOW factor that you can only experience at the Oscars or Met Gala. People get a chance to show off their fashion, style and can share that they attended your big day. And to make sure everyone knows its your big day, Glambots offer a graphic overlay with your names and wedding date on every reel created so when someone shared their video, everyone will know what event it was.

How does it work?
The Glambot experience starts with personalisation. The operators work with you to customise the entire setup, from branded overlays and colour grading to the backdrop and lighting so it fits perfectly with your wedding style. You can also choose to include extras like a red carpet, smoke machines, bubble gun or floor sparklers. On the day, our team arrives early to set everything up and run tests, ensuring everything is smooth and seamless. Once it’s time to roll, guests are invited to step up, strike a pose, and let the robotic camera do its magic. Moments later, their slow-motion clips are ready to view and share instantly the perfect blend of glam, fun, and unforgettable memories.
