What requirements do you need to set up at an event?
All we need is a 10ft x 20ft space, a level ground, and to be within 100ft of a power outlet. We can be inside or outside!
Do you travel?
Yes! Packages include travel up to 75 miles round trip from zip code 20105. For event destinations over 75 miles please inquire for a custom travel quote. We offer fixed travel rates for some of our more popular location requests: Baltimore, MD - $200, Charlottesville, VA - $250, and Richmond, VA - $325. For locations that are 3 hours or more one way from zip code 20105 will also have a $150 overnight fee.
What if we have an indoor venue space?
We are more than happy to bring our bus or camper inside! You would need to clear this option with you venue to ensure that there is proper space to get through the doors and a location that we could set up. Marigold is 15 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 6.5 ft tall (3000 lbs). We require a 20ft x 10ft space inside with an available outlet.
What if it rains?
If bringing Marigold inside is not an option, we are still able to set up in rain. We provide a 10ft x 10ft tent set up covering the photo booths entrance in poor weather for the convenience of you and your guests. If weather is dangerous than we can set up inside without the bus.
Can we personalize or customize our event?
Yes! Personalizing our bus can really take your event to the next level. For wedding couples we are happy to assist with adding your monogram or wedding logo to any of our booths and for our corporate clients we can include your custom branding or full vehicle wraps to our bus. We also work with you on any custom props or backgrounds to really make your event special.
Is Marigold available for photo shoots?
Absolutely! Marigold is a bit of a show off and loves being the center of attention! Our VW bus is available for engagement photos, mini sessions, family portraits, styled shoots and commercial projects. We offer both hourly and day rates. Contact us for availability!
Can we see the bus prior to booking?
We try to do several public events throughout the year and post our whereabouts on Facebook and Instagram in order for you to see the bus and get a chance to experience the fun first hand!
What are Idle Hours?
These are hours where the bus is fully set up but temporarily closed for photo booth fun. This is a popular add on during weddings or events when there is activity that is occurring where the audiences attention is needed (during dinner, speeches, ceremony, etc). This way the actual booth hours aren’t wasted. For example during a wedding we may be set up for 1 hour for cocktail, 1 hour idle during dinner, than 3 hours during reception (4 hour package plus 1 idle hour).
Does Marigold still run?
She does! We do our best to keep Marigold in good running shape, however, she is nearly 50 years old and she does have her quirks! Because of this we tow Marigold to all of our events to limit the wear and tear on the bus and to ensure that we show up to your event on time and ready to go!
Is Marigold your only photo bus?
Yes, however, but we do have several fun things in the works so always check back!
