For every event that we undertake, we wholeheartedly commit 100% of ourselves to delivering a seamless experience. We approach each occasion with the utmost care, diligence, and meticulous attention to detail. As entrepreneurs and former grooms and brides ourselves, we deeply understand the profound importance of a flawless wedding day and the smooth execution of a corporate gathering. Dive in to discover all the behind-the-scene intricacies that go into each event.

  1. Communication - Yes We Can Attitude

    We believe effective communication serves as the cornerstone for the success of any event. We are dedicated to upholding exceptional communication standards with all our clients. As integral members of a larger vendor team, we acknowledge our role as one piece in the intricate machinery of the planning and production process. Therefore, we maintain an easy-going and flexible posture at all times and are happy to accommodate any requests.

    We take the initiative, proactively engage with our clients well in advance, allowing ample time to delve into the final day-of details and understand their creative vision. Through our experience, we have identified that the optimal time frame for this in-depth discussion is approximately 60 days prior to the event. During this period, we collaboratively review the event schedule, explore customization options, and fine-tune logistics. This not only provides the client with sufficient reflection time but also allows our team the necessary runway to craft a truly unique and personalized event.

    Such robust communication lays the foundation for a seamless event together. It is paramount for us to comprehend our client's expectations, address any lingering questions, and ensure their confidence in our product and service. We want our clients to feel at ease and assured throughout the entire event planning journey.

  2. Customization - Creative Partnership

    Each event is truly one-of-a-kind, deserving a bespoke touch that reflects our client's unique personality and creative vision. Our commitment begins with the heart of any photo booth experience—the printed photo strip. This cherished memento, destined for guest refrigerators for years to come, must encapsulate our client's event. Hence, every single photo strip we print is a custom creation, uniquely designed to resonate with the event's individuality. We steer clear of standardized templates because, in our view, no one is ordinary; we prefer to position ourselves as creative partners.

    Our design process is easy and collaborative. We actively listen to our clients' vision, presenting proofs for their review and incorporating any necessary revisions until the design is perfected. However, our dedication to customization doesn't end there. We tailor every facet of the photo experience, allowing clients to curate the booth's music, choose from our extensive backdrop inventory, personalize prop selections to align with the event's theme, and decorate both the interior and exterior of the booth. These customization options are a part of our core service.

    For those seeking an even more unique touch, we go above and beyond by offering custom backdrops and props made specifically for the event. As a creative ally, we are committed to ensuring that every detail of the photo experience aligns with our clients' vision, making each event an unforgettable and personalized celebration.

  3. Preparation - State of Excellence

    The Boy Scout motto is 'be prepared,' we embody this ethos into our core values, commitment to delivering an unparalleled guest experience. This strategic approach ensures our perpetual state of readiness to navigate the challenges inherent in executing flawless events, whether they be traditional or new.

    All of our booths are carefully and meticulously maintained, washed, polished, and ready to go at a moment’s notice. Every equipment component undergoes thorough auditing, proper storage, and is accounted for with checklists. Acknowledging the inherent uncertainties in technology, we go the extra mile by carrying backup equipment for every facet of our service, down to the smallest wires and screws. Our awareness of being prepared empowers our team to be adaptable and laser focused on the success of the event.

  4. Journey - Safety

    Our fleet of vintage VW buses enjoy a pampered life, residing in our studio where they receive regular tune-ups from our mechanic, have topped-off oil levels and maintain precise tire pressure. While our affection for our iconic VW buses is undeniable, our utmost love is reserved for our dedicated crew, prompting us to implement stringent safety measures to safeguard their well-being and to ensure we successfully deliver the booth of your dreams.

    For longer journeys, we use our state-of-the-art towing trailers, guaranteeing the pristine arrival of our vintage bike and VW buses. Recognizing punctuality for every event is non-negotiable , we strategically incorporate time buffers into our travel schedule, accounting for potential traffic delays, unforeseen issues, and ensuring our staff has ample time for load-in, setup, enjoying a snack, and being poised for the upcoming event. Our deliberate avoidance of rushing is a pivotal element to our track record of success.
