FAQ
Normal setup and takedown time is 30 minutes to 1 hour prior to and 30 minutes after the rental period. For example, when the Ceremony and Reception are in the same room and you need the booth setup to be complete before the Ceremony, but the photo booth is only available when the Reception begins.
The Requirements
$250 plus hst non-refundable deposit and signed Rental Agreement Form in order to reserve your event date
Minimum 2 hour rental any day of the week!!
How big is the Photo Booth?
The Photo Booth takes up about a 8x10 area. There also needs to be room for 2 prop tables and guests waiting to get their booth session.
How many people will the booth fit?
Unlike the traditional photo booth (that comfortably hold just 2 people, or maybe squeeze in 3 or 4 people), our photo booth will comfortably fit from 1 to 6 people, and maybe even more! *(One event we had 14 in the booth at once!!)
Does everybody get a copy of their photo?
Yes! If 8 people go into the booth to get their pictures done, we want to see 8 people take their own photo strip home as a memory of the event!
Do guests pay anything?
Absolutely not! The hosts of the event have paid the fee for the hours of the rental. It is for the guests use at no cost.
Do I pay for set up/breakdown?
No. If your event is from 6PM to 10PM we will have the booth set up before 6PM and not begin breakdown until after 10PM. The 4 hours of rental means your guests get to use the booth as much as they want, as many times as they want, for the entire 4 hours.
What about customization?
The photo , can be used for your personlized graphic or logo. Let us know if you have a monogram, logo or picture you’d like us to use, or we can work with you to customize a graphic to suit your event. We can also customize the background of the photo strips and 4×6 to suit your needs. Pick a color, pick a theme, use a photo (hearts, flowers, puppies, whatever you want!).
How long should I rent the photo booth for?
A small group like a private birthday party would be suitable for 2 – 3 hours, but at a larger event you want to make sure that everybody gets a chance to use the booth at least once, or more! A wedding should be a 3 – 4 hour rental.
Is there always an attendant with the booth?
Our attendant will be on hand throughout the event to assist guests with the use of the photo booth, make sure the booth operates properly and to help with props and posing ideas. It is the attendant role to make sure your rental goes as smoothly as possible, and is as fun and exciting as can be! There will always be at least one attendant and sometimes two attendants will be on hand. This will not affect the cost of the rental.
Can I see the pictures online?
These days with Social Media everybody loves to see their pictures instantly online! The best option for this is to have Facebook included in your rental. I personally think this is one of the best and most exciting features of the Photo Booth. Also, we can upload all photos and videos for everybody to see. You have the choice to have your Gallery made public or private. If you prefer a private gallery, we will provide you with a password that you can give your guests to access all the photos from the event.
Where is the best location to set up the photo booth?
Ideally the best location is in the room your event is taking place, preferably in a back corner out of the way of main traffic flow. We don’t want to block any exits or doors leading to the bar or food preparation area. Close to an outlet is ideal. If the photo booth cannot be accommodated in the room, the next option is the lobby. If you have the Video Message option included in your rental, the best placement would be far away from a band or DJ, so that the music will not be too loud so that you cannot hear your guests Video Message.
Are there any hidden charges?
There are no hidden charges. There are additional options and services available that are at an additional cost. These options and services will be discussed prior to booking and outlined in the agreement.
What if I need to cancel?
It is unfortunate that at times there may be a need to cancel. You may cancel at any time, but the $250 plus hst deposit in non-refundable.
