1. Space and power
- Find a flat, level area. Grass, gravel and slopes make booths unsteady, especially a spinning 360 platform.
- Check there's a standard power outlet within 5 metres. If not, tell us when you enquire.
- Leave room for a queue, so guests waiting don't block a doorway, the bar or the dance floor.
- Ask us for the exact space for your package. We include it in your quote.
2. Indoors or outdoors
- Outdoor setups need to be covered, such as a marquee, verandah or pergola.
- Have a backup spot inside. For safety, we may pause outdoors in rain, strong wind or extreme heat.
3. Pick your hours
- Book the booth for when most guests are there and the mood is up, often from after the meal or speeches until the end.
- Setup happens before your booked time, so you don't lose any hours to it.
- Running a long day, like a launch or a full wedding? Longer packages cost less per hour.
4. Talk to your venue
- Tell the venue you're bringing a booth, and ask about access times, loading and parking for suppliers.
- Check whether the venue has its own rules for suppliers, so there are no surprises on the day.
5. Personalise it
- Decide what goes on the photos or videos: names, date, a hashtag or your logo.
- Send logos as high-resolution files, ideally with a transparent background.
- For the photo booth, pick a backdrop that suits your colours or venue.
- For the 360 Ultimate package, choose a music track you have the rights to use.
6. Lock it in
- Enquire early for Saturdays, December and wedding season, as popular dates go first.
- At Rosco, your date is secured once you pay a 30% deposit by PayID and we confirm in writing. The balance is due on the day.
- Need to move the date? Tell us at least 14 days before and we'll move it once at no cost, subject to availability.
- Planning to use the photos or videos for marketing? Mention it when you enquire, as commercial use needs our written permission unless your quote includes it.
