What to ask each candidate
Facts that differ from one vendor to the next — worth writing down while you shop.
What kind of booth?
360 and glam booths carry a larger footprint and heavier power draw — placement and power read this.
Backdrop and props
How do guests get their photos?
Attended or drop-off?
Turn booth photos into a guestbook?
What settles once booked
The working details you and your vendor pin down together.
Where does the booth go?
Consumed advisorily against the venue's layout — nothing blocks if the venue isn't chosen yet.
Power for the booth
When does the booth open?
DERIVED from the reception timing. Moving the reception decays this to needs_reconfirm rather than silently shifting the booth.
What time do they arrive?
The time you agreed together, not an estimate worked back from the ceremony.
What time do they finish?
Who do you call on the day?
The name and cell number of whoever is on site — not the office line.
Where do they come in, and where do they park?
The load-in door or dock, where the vehicles go, and who opens up.
Do they need a meal?
Counts toward your caterer's vendor-meal number.
What balance is due on the day?
Your own figure, from your contract — what is still owed when they arrive.
What gratuity are you planning?
Your own figure. It rides beside the balance on the day-of money sheet.
