Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should We Use Windy City Photo Booths, Inc.?

At WCPB Inc. we pride ourselves on customer service.  We believe that every one of our clients and their guests walk away appreciating the experience as a whole.  With WCPB Inc. you get a personalized experience as we work with you to make our involvement in your big day or with your event as seamless as possible. 

We are a photo booth company that provides a traditional and classic style photo booth that most remember from yester-year.  We feel that we provide a much more intimate experience, the way a photo booth was meant to be.  Why not provide you and your guests with an unforgettable and unique, yet authentic photo booth experience?

We also provide our clients with the most affordable photo booth rental cost in the area.

How Does the Booth Work?

Using only the best quality digital equipment, we make the process as simple and enjoyable as possible.  Step into the booth, have a seat and start the photo booth experience with the push of a button.  The sequence includes four photos taken eight seconds apart, with a two second preview of the previous photo.  After you view your last picture, step out of the booth and 30 seconds later your prints are ready!

How Many Photos Can We Take During the Event?

There is no limit to how many pictures are taken or photo strips are printed out.  For your rental period you can take as many trips to the booth as possible!

How Big Is Your Booth?

Our booth stands at just over six feet tall, a width of roughly three feet and with the curtain assembly, a depth of about seven feet.

How Many People Can Your Booth Accommodate?

We provide a bench for the comfort of you and your guests and more of a classic photo booth feel.  With our custom curtain system, we can accommodate up to 6-8 guests at once.  If you want to squeeze more than that in, by all means…we will do our best to make that happen!

How Can I Make Sure My Guests Get The Most Use Out Of The Photo Booth?

In our experience, the best way to accomplish this is to make an announcement.  If there is a DJ or MC at the event, they can provide the guests with location of booth and let them know it is free of charge.  You can also provide a note with the place settings or provide a sign explaining the purpose of the photo booth, located near an entrance or by the photo booth itself.

Is There A Mileage Charge?

If your event location is within a 60 mile radius of our home office in Plainfield, IL (zip code: 60586), there is NO extra charge.  Any event location outside of that 60 mile radius, we do charge a flat fee starting at $50.

Is There A Typical Number Of Hours For Photo Booth Rentals?

Depending upon the event, yes there is.  This can vary based on the number of hours the hall has been rented for.  We have found that a four hour rental is sufficient for wedding receptions, but five hour packages are common. We also give you the options of adding hours the day of your event. 

WCPB Inc. is one of the few companies to offer an hourly rate.  Not every event requires a four or five hour rental.  Offering an hourly rate gives you, the client, flexibility in controlling cost and determining the most efficient rental period for your event.  We can customize two or three hourly rate packages to include the additional options of your choosing.

Can You Access Floors Above The First Floor With Your Booth?

Our booth is very mobile and we can access anything above one floor.  Elevator access will be necessary if event location is above first floor.

Do You Accommodate Outdoor Events?

We can accommodate outdoor events, weather permitting. Access to source of electricity must be provided.  If inclement weather is expected, shelter or cover will be necessary.

What Happens If The Booth Stops Working?

Never have we had such a problem, but this is the reason for having attendants on-site.  Our attendants know the components of the photo booth.  If a problem should occur, our attendants can provide a quick resolution.  From time to time the attendants may have to change a roll of paper or an ink ribbon.  This would require no more than a couple minutes and happens very rarely.
