Photo Booth Hire timings and durations
In the unlikely circumstance we are not ready to start at the agreed time because of an issue at our end, we will extend our finish time to the agreed duration (venue permitting).
In the event we cannot start at the agreed time for reasons that may be outside of our direct control, we will do all we can to extend the hire duration accordingly, provided this does not enter into the time of any other client that may have hired us. If that is not possible, the hire will still end as per the agreed time of the booking.
