Frequently asked questions
Do you serve all of National City?
Yes. We cover all of National City — including the Mile of Cars, Pier 32 Marina, Kimball Park area, and the Westside. National City sits right along the I-5 from our Escondido HQ.
How early do you arrive for setup?
Our attendant arrives 60-90 minutes before your event start time. Setup takes about 30 minutes for the standard booth and 45 minutes for the 360 and mirror booths. We schedule it so everything is ready before your first guest walks in.
Can prints be branded with our wedding hashtag or company logo?
Absolutely. Every print can include your monogram, hashtag, date, or full corporate branding. Send us your artwork during the booking process and we'll mock up the print template for approval.
Do you provide backdrops, or should we use the venue's?
Both options work. We offer premium backdrops — including floral walls, modern panels, sequin, and custom-printed step-and-repeats — but if your venue already has a wall you want to use, our open-air booths set up beautifully without one.
What's included in the price?
Every package includes the booth, a trained attendant for the full event window, unlimited prints, instant digital sharing, prop kit, online gallery, setup, and breakdown. The only optional add-ons are extended hours, premium backdrops, and custom-print templating.
