Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before booking your Megastar 360 photo booth experience.
What is included in a photo booth rental?
A standard photo booth rental includes professional setup and pack-down, an on-site attendant, unlimited sessions during your hire period, high-quality lighting, custom overlays or branding, and digital delivery of all photos or videos. Inclusions can vary by package.
How much space does a photo booth need?
Most photo booths require a clear area of approximately 3 × 3 metres. A 360° photo booth typically needs slightly more space to allow for safe movement around the platform and optimal camera angles.
How long does setup take?
Setup usually takes 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the booth type and venue access. Pack-down is typically faster and handled discreetly after your event.
Can the photo booth be customised for my event?
Yes. Photo booths can be customised with branded overlays, event titles, colours, logos, and themed props. This is especially popular for weddings, birthdays, and corporate events looking for a polished, on-brand experience.
Do guests receive their photos instantly?
Yes. Guests can receive their photos or videos instantly via QR code, email, or SMS. Some packages also include instant printing, depending on the booth type and options selected.
Is a deposit required to book?
Yes. A $150 non-refundable deposit is required to lock in your date and package. The remaining balance is due before your event.
What is your cancellation policy?
All bookings are final. Because your date is reserved exclusively for you, we’re unable to offer refunds once a booking is confirmed. If your plans change, get in touch as early as possible and we’ll do what we can to help.
Do you travel outside Melbourne?
Travel is included within 20km of the Melbourne CBD. Beyond that, a flat travel fee of $1.50/km applies for the return trip.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks ahead for weddings and peak-season events, though we can sometimes accommodate shorter notice — get in touch to check availability.
Can the photo booth be used outdoors, or what if it rains?
Yes, with a few conditions. The booth needs a covered, flat, stable surface — undercover outdoor areas work well, but it can’t be set up in direct rain or on uneven ground. Let us know your setup when booking so we can plan accordingly.
Can I extend my booking on the day?
Yes, subject to availability, for $300 per additional hour.
