Got Questions?

can i keep my photos private?

Of course, we respect your rights to your photos! All you have to do is tell us you want them private and suddenly your black mail worthy photos will not be available for anyone to see! Poof!

Do you offer special pricing for non profit and school events?

Yes we do! The best way to find out what we can do for you is to contact us right away. A third of our business is with non profits and schools and we would love to keep it that way!

can i get custom props?

Yup, yup, how else can we make your event more special!? You should see our prop closet, it's close to the size of a Halloween super store!

can i get a custom backdrop?

Absofreakinglutely! That's our specialty! Have you seen what we've got? We will help you right from the start! Just send us an email or call us, and we will help you with the whole process!

Do you have customer testimonials?

Yes! Have you seen all our crazy good Yelp Reviews? They say we are pretty damn good!

Why do your photos look so good?

Right? Superior lights, radtastic backdrops, and out of this world props make you look oh so smashing! Also our specially trained attendants are well equipped to turn up the fun factor and make you look AMAZING in your booth! People love our booths so much they want to buy one for their homes!

How much space do you need?

We require at least a 10x10x8 space, please make sure we have access to constant electricity within 15-20 feet and level ground.

Can you set up outdoors?

Yes, we can provide a canopy for extra cost but we ask that you please don't make us work in the rain – our equipment gets sad when it's wet! Otherwise, please be sure we have consistent shade, access to dedicated electricity within 15-20 feet and level ground. We really don't like direct sunlight since the equipment may overheat!

How can I ensure that my booth is a hit?

Tell people that you will have a photo booth at the event, prep them to have fun! It's all about the hype! Place the photo booth in a high traffic area, typically near where the drinks are, but please keep us away from dark, lonely corners! We would also love it if we were away from the speakers and the DJ so your guests can interact with your attendants without having to spoil the fun!

what is a super booth?

A photo booth with 5 cameras. Can it seriously get better than that? 5 photographs all at one time, you just have to check it out. I mean, it's just super!

what is the slo mo booth?

7 seconds turned into 21 seconds. Super cool right? Suddenly every thing is so super slow and man, people's faces look funny that slowed down! Confetti and balloons take on a new meaning!

What is the GIF Booth?

Step right in front of the GIF Booth, post for 3 photos and TA-DA! You'll get an animated GIF of your 3 photos that you can post on social media! It's super fun and you'll look like a little stop motion video. How cool is that?

Why is Giggle and Riot more awesome than the rest?

'Cause we strive to be, and it shows! We know our booths are not for everyone. People who love our booths are usually stylish and chic and recognize that they deserve a booth that is more fun and more snazzy. Frankly, our clients know they deserve the best. Our colors, photos and prints are much better quality and our printer prints them out lightning fast! Our props are custom picked to match your event and we are always on the hunt for new ones. And we pride ourselves on having the best and most varied backdrops to compliment your event and make it more fun. We might cost a little more than your average booth but then again, we are far from average. We are different from the rest and if we dare say, one of the best booths out there!

Do you cost more than other booths?

Some booths yes, but we are oh so worth it! The best and widest collection of backdrops, amazing light quality, top notch customer service before and after your event, and ever lasting love and photo booth cheesiness. Those are just some of the goodies you get with us but don't stop us there. Our amazing Yelp reviews and customer testimonials prove just how much we love to serve our clients. We pride ourselves on going above and beyond for our clients, and we bring our A game to every event. We love to customize every single aspect of your booth for you, so you will never have the same old boring set up as another event, it's all about you baby and you're the star!

Why don’t you have enclosed booths?

We have all open air booths because we get to fit more people that way! Our record is 32 people, beat that! Typically, in a traditional enclosed booth, a bride with a wedding dress can only fit 1 or 2 more people in it with her. Also, having an open booth like ours means way more interesting backdrops that we can customize for your party. Open booths also means that guests' clothes stay on (trust us on this!) and everything stays relatively PG 13. Lastly, open air booths mean open entertainment for your other guests! Guests are free to photo bomb as much as they want, which is an art in itself. This encourages other guests to join in on the fun. And really, if you do want privacy, we do have the option of enclosing our booths with privacy curtains!

This is awesome!

Right?! We agree! And we want to share it with the world!!

Where are you based?

Right now, Sacramento and San Francisco but we’re also jazzing up the San Jose, Napa, Sonoma and Lake Tahoe areas. We're willing to travel all over Northern California for your special event!
