· Photo Booth Rental FAQ
Everything you might ask before booking.
Pricing, timelines, setup, customization, insurance — the answers Saskatoon couples and corporate planners ask us every week.
· Pricing
✦How much is a photo booth rental in Saskatoon?+
Picture and Petal offers three all-inclusive packages: Digital Only ($400 for 2 hours), Premium Print ($500 for 2 hours), and Luxury Print ($700 for 4 hours). Every tier includes an on-site attendant, unlimited sessions, backdrop, props and delivery within Saskatoon and 50 km.
✦Are there any hidden fees or upsells?+
No. Every package price includes delivery, setup, takedown, an on-site attendant for the full booking, unlimited sessions, backdrop, props and digital gallery. Optional add-ons (extra hours, flower wall, custom neon signage) are quoted upfront in your invoice.
✦Do you charge extra for travel?+
Travel is free within 50 km of Saskatoon — that covers Warman, Martensville, Osler, Dalmeny and Aberdeen. Beyond 50 km (Prince Albert, Regina, out-of-town weddings) travel is quoted upfront with no hidden fees.
✦Do you require a deposit?+
Yes — a 25% deposit reserves your date. The balance is due 14 days before the event. Deposits are non-refundable but transferable to another date if plans change.
· Booking
✦How far in advance should I book?+
Peak wedding season Saturdays (May–September) typically book 3–6 months out. Off-season, weekdays and evening events can often be booked with 2–4 weeks notice. Reach out early and we'll place a soft hold while you finalize other vendors.
✦Can I hold a date without paying a deposit?+
Yes — we offer a 7-day soft hold on any date. That gives you time to finalize the venue, DJ and other vendors before locking in the booth deposit.
✦What happens if we need to reschedule?+
Deposits are transferable to another date within 12 months at no penalty, subject to availability. If we can't accommodate the new date, we'll refund 50% of the deposit.
· The Booth
✦What is a magic mirror photo booth?+
A magic mirror is a full-length interactive photo booth built into a five-foot reflective touchscreen surface. Guests touch the mirror to begin, follow on-screen animations, sign their photo with a finger, and receive an instant designer print — a warmer, more elegant experience than a traditional open-air booth.
✦How is your mirror different from other Saskatoon photo booths?+
Most Saskatoon photo booth vendors use boxy open-air stands with iPad-quality cameras. Our five-foot magic mirror uses a professional DSLR sensor, has an integrated touchscreen for on-screen signing and custom animations, and outputs custom-templated designer prints — not stock 4×6 photo strips.
✦Do the prints come out on-site?+
Yes — every session ends with a physical print in under 10 seconds. Guests also receive a digital copy via online gallery, and you get a USB of the full album within a week.
✦How many guests can fit in one photo?+
The mirror easily fits 1–8 guests per session. Wedding parties and bridal groups regularly use the mirror as a group photo destination throughout the reception.
· Setup
✦How much space does the booth need?+
The mirror needs about 4×4 feet of floor space plus 6 feet in front for guest queueing. Total footprint is about 4×10 feet including red carpet and stanchions.
✦How long does setup take?+
We arrive 60–90 minutes before your event start time for a full setup. Takedown is quick and clean, respecting your venue's turnaround requirements.
✦Do you need a power outlet?+
Yes — a standard 15-amp outlet within 10 feet of the setup location. Most venues have this covered but we bring a heavy-duty extension cord as backup.
✦Can you set up outdoors?+
Yes, with weather protection. We require a covered area (tent, gazebo, veranda) to protect the electronics and printer. Outdoor bookings during summer months require confirmed weather backup plans.
· Customization
✦Can we customize the print template?+
Yes — every event gets a fully custom print template with your monogram, event name, date, and colour palette. Templates are designed and mocked up 2 weeks before your event for approval.
✦Can we add our brand logo for a corporate event?+
Yes. For corporate events, your logo goes on the touchscreen welcome screen, every printed photo, and optionally the backdrop. Brand colours can also be matched into the LED lighting.
✦Do you offer custom neon signage?+
Yes — laser-cut acrylic signs, custom neon LED signs (three-week lead time, +$200) and event hashtag signage can all be added to any booking.
· Flower Wall
✦Are the flower walls fresh or silk?+
Premium silk florals — visually indistinguishable from fresh at photo distance, but durable enough to look perfect all night. This keeps rental cost 40–60% lower than fresh flower walls.
✦How big are the flower walls?+
Standard walls are 8×8 feet — the right size to fit a couple, a bridal party or a wedding entourage without cropping. Custom sizes available with three weeks notice.
· Operations
✦Is the attendant included in every package?+
Yes. A trained on-site attendant is included in every package for the full booking duration. They handle setup, keep the booth flowing, help with props, and pack down — you don't need to think about it.
✦Do you have insurance?+
Yes — we carry a $2M General Liability policy and equipment breakdown coverage. Certificates of insurance can be delivered directly to your venue if required.
✦What if the equipment breaks during our event?+
We bring a full backup print unit and secondary tablet controller to every booking. If anything fails, we swap in seconds. In the extremely rare case a booth can't be recovered, we refund the affected time pro rata.
