Summer, Summer, Summer

The pool, the view overlooking the lake, the summer fun…

Two Snapz booths were hired by INK Entertainment for big summer bashes at the Cabana Bar in Toronto on August 16th and 17th. Cabana is an outdoor club that accommodates 2500 people. It’s a very “Miami” setting with huge pool ,white tables and umbrellas, chaise loungers and all-white (surprise!) cabanas. Beautiful people in their best beach attire enjoy fantastic cocktails and Oliver and Bonacini food service. Needless to say that it is the IT place for Toronto summer parties.

Snapz & The Summer Sailor Scuttle

A branded Snapz traditional booth was at the JWT Worldwide Summer Sailor Scuttle on August 14 at Skybar in Toronto. Our new “stair” booth which was created especially for difficult to access venues was brought up 4 flights of stairs as Skybar has no elevator. This is no easy feat for a 450 pound machine. The “stair” booth weighs the same but is easily broken apart and reassembled and is brought up and down stairs in 3 separate parts. Set up is still about 7 minutes once the booth reaches its final destination.

Weddings, Birthdays, Grad Parties and Social Media Uploading Technology

For several years, Snapz Photo Booth has been offering activations that allow booth users to upload their images to social media or send to email. Uploading stations located near the photo booths bring the technology outside of the machines so wait lines are kept to a minimum. Unique QR technology allows a user to scan (with a smart phone app or with a scanner located outside of the machine) a small unique QR code on their photo strip to access a landing page that displays only their image. From the landing page, a user can upload their image to social media or send to email.

Most of the jobs that included social media uploading technology have been corporate or agency clients. More recently many of our personal party clients (weddings, birthdays, and grad parties) have been adding social media uploading technology options to their booth rental packages. QR code technology landing pages can be customized with party themes, names of couples or guests of honor, and party or wedding websites. Uploading stations can also be customized.

Ask us about our various social media options for your next booth rental… We can make recommendations for the what would best suit your event needs.
