Before you pay a deposit

Ask whether the quote includes delivery, setup time, an attendant, prints, travel, and extra hours. Confirm cancellation terms and when you receive the digital files. Two packages with the same headline price can include different things.

A booth and a shared album can work together

A booth makes a dedicated photo spot. An event album collects pictures taken elsewhere too, from the ceremony seats to the dance floor. Put the album QR code near the booth and ask guests to add their own phone photos; confirm separately whether your booth vendor provides its files.
