Photo Booth FAQ

A: A photo booth rental at your wedding, birthday or office party is great entertainment and life of the party! Our photo booth provides a very unique and entertaining experience that everyone, from young and old, will enjoy!  Your guests get photos from the photo booth print that serve as a great reminder and party favour of your event.

A: The open air photo booth requires an area of about 9 ft x 9 ft and a ceiling height of about 7 ft. Additional space is required for the prop table. Generally speaking we would need 15ft x 20ft place for the booth.

A: A lot, that is why the open air booth is so popular! Five to six people can easily fit in for a photo booth photo. We have had as much as 8-10 people in the photo booth at once…[    

A: The Grüvi Photo Booth is an open air photo booth. We found that the open photo booth has a lot more entertainment value than a closed photo booth. We like to see everyone having fun!

A: Yes, our dye sub printer spits our Lab Quality prints within 10 seconds of the photo being taken! Instant gratification is a super important part of the fun factor and Grüvi Photo Booths prints your photos every time. Our high resolution prints are high gloss and excellent quality.

A: The photo booth prints two strip photos after every session. At Grüvi Photo Booths, we feel that a photo booth is not really a photo booth if you don’t have the photo strip to take home. How fun is that?!

A: A photo booth can really make any event fun and memorable, we recommend renting a Grüvi Photo Booth for events such as weddings, birthday parties, school dances, trade shows, conventions, reunions, graduation parties, anniversaries, fundraisers, sporting functions, charity events, corporate events, and anywhere there is a party!

A: Choose one of the awesome props from out prop table (we really have some cool stuff), enter the photo booth area, push the button on the touchscreen , strike a pose, look at the camera and the photo booth will take a photo. The photos is then displayed on the touchscreen inside the booth, strike another pose, look at the camera and the photo booth will take another photo, wash rinse and repeat another two times… And just 10 seconds later the photos are printed and available outside the photo booth.

A: For sure! Social Media is a huge part of our business and we post a selection of images from each hire. Oh the fun these photos generate!! And you get to tag yourself in the photos and let the fun run wild! 

A: The photo booth is very easy to use. A welcome screen will tell you exactly what to do and the photo booth attendant is on hand to get you started on each session, we’ll even push the start button for you if your hands are too full of props! A viewing screen will give a 5-second countdown before a picture is taken of each pose. In less than 15 seconds, your guests will receive a lab quality printout of their picture. And don’t forget, our booth attendant is always there to answer any of your questions.

A: No way José, we do not charge any guests for photos. Your rental includes unlimited use of the photo booth.

A: There is no restriction on how many photos you can take during the event. Take as many photos as you like for just one rental price. It all depends on how much fun your guests are having while having their photo taken… After all it is all about fun and good times right?

A: Once again… No way José! A professional staff member will stay with the photo booth throughout the event. We want to make sure everything is running smoothly and assist guests in using the booth. You don’t need to worry about delivery, set-up, operation, or take down. We greet the guests, centre them in the photo, tell them where to look,  and even hand out your final photo strips.  Grüvi Photo Booths offers a “No Worries Advantage” with every rental!
