Common Photo Booth Rental Invoicing Mistakes

Invoices fall apart when terms are fuzzy or buried. Use these simple fixes to cut disputes and get paid cleanly.

Mistake
How to fix it
Skipping a deposit risks no-shows and lost dates.
Charge a nonrefundable retainer that applies to the final bill and state when the balance is due.
Listing only an event time causes disputes over arrival, live time, and teardown.
State setup start, live time start and end, and breakdown end, and tie charges to these times.
Capture parking rules, loading path, elevator use, and contact names, and add them to the invoice notes.

No written policy for cancellations or reschedules invites chargebacks and angry calls.

Charging tax wrong creates compliance risk and surprise bills.
Apply tax only where required and keep records for printed goods and physical items, and check local rules.

Photo Booth Rentals Invoice FAQs

Bill hours, idle time, travel, custom wraps, COI fees, taxes, and overtime for weddings and trade shows. Line items and terms, clear answers.

How do I bill idle time for early setup?

List setup, live hours, and idle time as separate lines. Add your rate for holding the booth while inactive. Example: “Idle Time - 2 hrs @ $50/hr = $100.”

Should I take a retainer to hold the date?

Yes. Record it as a nonrefundable retainer that applies to the balance. Example: “Retainer to Reserve 10/12 - $150” and later “Retainer Applied -$150.”

What belongs on travel and parking lines?

Spell out mileage past your base radius, tolls, and parking or valet. Add a stair-carry or elevator fee if needed. Example: “Travel - 42 miles @ $0.75 = $31.50,” “Venue Parking - $28.”

How do I price overtime if the party runs long?

Set an hourly overtime rate in your terms. Get a client signature or on-site approval before running over. Example: “Overtime - 1.5 hrs @ $175/hr = $262.50.”

Do I charge sales tax on prints or digital files?

Rules vary—check local rules. Many states tax tangible prints and some tax services too. Example: “Subtotal $1,000,” “Sales Tax 8.25% = $82.50.”

How do I show custom branding or a full booth wrap on the invoice?

Break branding into design and production. If you install a vinyl wrap, list removal too. Example: “Brand Design - $120,” “Vinyl Wrap Production - $260,” “Wrap Removal - $60.”

How do I handle damage to props or backdrops?

Include a damage clause and a security deposit if you take one. List the replacement or repair as a separate charge. Example: “Damaged Sequin Backdrop Replacement - $180.”

Can I bill for providing a COI or adding the venue as additional insured?

Yes. List it as an admin charge if your insurer bills you or it takes extra time. Example: “COI + Additional Insured Processing - $35.”
