Hannah P.Wedding at River Center
Loved snapXP at our 40th bday party/wedding! I don't know how we're going to have another party without renting a Selfie Stand! So much fun was had by all and unlimited photos was such a gift for the kids and all who were there. The background we chose looked fabulous and the templates were all customizable for our event and worked really well. Definitely get this to your party if you have the chance!
Nia C.Birthday party

Questions we get every week

How much does a photo booth rental cost in Des Moines?

The Selfie Stand is $625, the GLAM Booth is $725 and the GLAM Luxe is $825, plus tax. Every rental is a full day, up to 24 hours, with unlimited photos, a custom photo template, a standard backdrop, and delivery, setup and teardown within 35 miles of Des Moines. Nonprofits pay $525 for the Selfie Stand and $625 for the GLAM Booth. The Brand Experience, which adds a custom wrap, a branded microsite and lead capture, is $895 on the Selfie Stand and $995 on the GLAM Booth. See all pricing.

What areas do you serve?

We deliver and set up within 35 miles of Des Moines. That covers Des Moines, West Des Moines, Ankeny, Urbandale, Waukee, Clive, Johnston, Altoona, Grimes, Norwalk, Indianola, Adel, Pleasant Hill, Bondurant and Polk City. For an event anywhere else in Iowa, pick the photo booth up in West Des Moines with self-serve. We also ship the Selfie Stand anywhere in the United States, most often for company events.

How do we lock in our date?

A 25% retainer holds your date. The remaining balance is due 10 days before the event. You can book online for weddings, parties, company events and nonprofits, or send us a note if your event needs anything custom.

What if we need to move the date?

We will do everything we can to move with you. If the equipment is already booked on your new date, the retainer is kept and the agreement ends. Moving into the following year means that year's pricing applies. This is a plain language summary, not legal advice, and the agreement you sign is the final word.

What happens if we cancel?

Cancellations need to be in writing. If you cancel less than 30 days before the event and there is still a balance owed, the remaining service fee becomes due right away. Otherwise the event is refunded minus the retainer.

Do you print photos?

No, and that is on purpose. snapXP is fully digital. Photos, GIFs, boomerangs and video go straight to your guests by text, email or social, and everything lands in a live online gallery you keep. Nothing gets left on a table at the end of the night.

Which backdrop do we get, and what are the upgrades?

A standard backdrop with 30 plus designs is included with every rental. The two upgrades people ask for by name are the shimmer wall, which moves with the room and catches the ring light, and the flower wall, a backdrop packed with blooms that photographs beautifully at a wedding or a shower. Hedge walls are available too. All upgrades are subject to availability, so ask early, and backdrops are never required. See every backdrop.

What do you need from the venue?

Access to power, and we bring a 10 foot extension cord with every rental. We recommend at least 10 feet by 10 feet of space for the photo experience so there is room for a group to pile in.

Can we set up outside?

Yes, and it looks great outdoors. We do recommend cover, and outdoor setups are weather pending, since the equipment is not waterproof.

Our venue is more than 35 miles out. Now what?

Self-serve is the answer. You pick the photo booth up in West Des Moines one to three days before your event and return it within three days after. Setup takes 15 to 20 minutes, step-by-step instructions are included, and everything arrives packed in a rolling case. Standard backdrops are available for pickup events.

Can you ship it to us?

We ship anywhere in the United States by UPS, which averages $60 to $75 each way. Backdrops are not available on shipped events, but every digital backdrop still is.

Is there a limit on photos?

No. Unlimited sessions for the whole rental. Every guest can go as many times as they want, and every one of those photos lands in your gallery.
