Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Bus/Beetle work for my venue?

Most probably, YES! We only need a level 20'x20' location with electricity and reliable WiFi. We are always up for making indoor or outdoor areas work… barns, garages, farms, outdoor venues! We encourage you to double-check with your venue to ensure there are no issues and that they can provide the electricity and WiFi needed. Unfortunately, we can not be held responsible for any inconveniences due to spotty WiFi.

What is included in our package?

Our packages include using the open-air photo booth for the allotted time, plus travel, setup, and tear-down times. We will work with your vendors to coordinate our services to ensure everything will go as seamlessly as possible. You can access the Bus or Beetle as a backdrop for your wedding photos. All provided furniture, rugs, props, and outside decor are included. Unlimited images will be presented to your guests, as well as a digital file for you. If your guests prefer, the photo booth snaps can be texted directly to them for sharing and posting on social media.

How far do you travel?

We travel within a 30-minute radius of Lancaster, PA, with no additional costs. Beyond that, because we are working with a 50+-year-old vehicle, we trailer the car to ensure we make it to your event without mechanical issues. We charge minimal travel fees under those circumstances. Message us about those costs!

Can we rent the Bus or the Beetle for a photo shoot?

Most definitely! We frequently rent the cars to photographers for mini sessions and branding shoots. If there is another occasion for which you might need a fantastic photo prop… shoot us an email! Suppose you are an individual looking for family pictures or a business looking for branding work. In that case, we can connect you with locations and area photographers. 

Can we drive the Bus? Can you drive us in the Bus to our reception?

We hate to be the destroyer of dreams, but unfortunately, no. Due to insurance, liability, and all that fun stuff, we just can't.

What are the best times for the photo booth to be set up at our event?

Every event and venue is different, and we will work with you to figure out the best time and place for the photo booth. We have found that guests most enjoy the booth during the reception after dinner and speeches! Sometimes, cocktail hour is the perfect time! Some things to consider are the layout of your venue, the locations where people will be gathering, and your timeline of events. We require about an hour to set up, so keep that in mind so we can be stealthy.

Can we customize the car for our event?

Yes! We provide a very neutral palette for you to work with and high-quality handcrafted and vintage props. We will happily work with your florists to create floral installments. We also offer balloon arches in your color palettes. Personalizing the car for your unique events is half the fun for us. Please send us your inspiration boards! We would love to help you create what you are looking for!

What if there are mechanical or technical issues?

As much as we would love to guarantee that there will be no mechanical issues, remember that these are 50+-year-old cars and can sometimes be cranky. We will make every effort to have the vehicle of your choice at your venue, but should issues arise, we may need to swap out the photo booth for the alternate vintage car. We will notify you as soon as possible if that should occur.

Also, because we are an open-air photo booth, issues with WiFi may occasionally occur. We strongly encourage you to verify with your venue that they can provide a strong signal. Should any technical problems arise in which we cannot provide photo strips to your guests, we will provide texted photos so that your guests can download and share them. In this case, we will issue you a $200 refund.

How do we book? What is your cancellation policy?

We require a 50% deposit of the total amount to hold your date. The balance is due 30 days before your event. We recommend booking sooner rather than later as the wedding industry books up QUICKLY! There is a $150 penalty for cancellations more than 6 months from your event date and $500 for less than six months from the event. Events canceled less than 60 days from the date unless due to weather, are non-refundable.

What if it rains?

If there are a few showers, we can still make it to the party with the Bus or Beetle. But if the weather may be a little more unpredictable, we will make a judgment call the morning of your event. We have an equally unique Plan B option if the weather doesn't cooperate! You can still have all the vintage vibes with our architectural salvage backdrop and all the fantastic styling options you have with our Bus and Beetle! It will still be amazing…, I promise.

What if our event is in the city and there isn’t a place for a vehicle to park?

You can still get all the vintage aesthetics with our salvaged architectural backdrops styled with amazing vintage finds. We are an indoor/outdoor/rain/shine/summer/winter Photo Booth!

Are you insured?

Yes! Absolutely! We will happily provide a copy of our COI to your venue!
