EXCELLENT! We used the glam Photo Booth at our wedding. And the photos turned out incredible!! Every person at the wedding was shocked to see how good the photos turned out! We got the file of all the photos after the event and had such a blast going through all of the photos. Truly one of the most memorable things we did at the wedding. Personal, yet fun and classy. The staff were extremely professional and flexible with the timing of the booth. For sure recommend !
Highly recommend! Very professional, easy to work with, and photos turned out great!
My experience with The Photo Bus was nothing short of PERFECT through the entire process! I first discovered them at a wedding convention in KC and kept their card knowing I'd want to reach out. I emailed with Emily a ton after that and she was so quick to answer, friendly and helpful. They made my neon sign and photo booth dreams come to life at my wedding 2 weeks ago!! My family was so impressed my sister just booked them for her wedding on October! I will recommend to anyone who asks :)
The photo bus KC was awesome!!! We had the GIF booth at our wedding and it was a hit, people were taking photos all night. I love how the photos went to the phone as people like to post photobooth pictures on social media. We also rented a neon sign that they seamlessly attached to our boxwood wall. We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend using this photo booth company!
Our experience with John and Cate and their Photo Bus company was top notch in every way! They were happy to answer questions and insure we'd chosen the best option for our event. Ours was our daughter's wedding in January of 2021. We chose the photo booth with the boxwood backdrop and neon "Better Together" sign. It added such a special touch to the reception decor. The guests loved the copies of their photos and had a blast taking the pics too! Our daughter and son-in-law absolutely love the custom photo album with all the pictures in it...what a treasure! Thank you to John and Cate for making the reception extra special!
The GIF photo station at my wedding was so much fun! The photographer was easy to work with, flexible, professional, and fun. My guests really enjoyed the interactive experience!
Thank you to The Photo Bus KC for a wonderful time at our wedding on 10.10.2020. It was everything we hoped for and more. Our photo album will be forever cherished! John and Cate were amazing and I will be sure to refer them on any chance I get and hope to have the opportunity to work with them in the future!
Also an extra special thank you to John for adjusting his schedule and allowing us to extend our time enjoying the Photo Bus!
The folks behind the original photo bus, John and Cate, are some of the most imaginative and creative people we know when it comes to creating unique photo booth setups that can be the life of your event! Their staff are always super friendly and professional. And John and Cate ore also two of the most genuinely nice and down to earth people we know. They treat everyone they come into contact with respect and professionalism. Their team arrives plenty early to events to make sure everything is running smoothly. They also have tons of customized props and backdrops for clients, and are always willing to go the extra distance. We couldn’t recommend anyone better in the business!
I used The Photo Bus's GIF booth for a corporate event recently. Everyone loved it, and had so much fun! The booking process is so easy, and the day-of staff was absolutely wonderful. They are very professional and helped our event shine! We will definitely be using them in the future!
We booked the GIF booth for our wedding reception and it was SUCH A HUGE HIT!!!! Everyone lovedddddddddd it.. John and his team set up our neon sign as the back drop and sent me a preview the day before the wedding, making sure i liked how it looked. I was seriously obsessed!!!! Loved it sooooo much. There was a line for it the entire night. We were able to choose between a single photo, a gif, or a boomerang. The images and gifs were so so fun to look at after the wedding. My husband and i got copies of every single one that was taken and we enjoy reliving the night by flipping through these images. Would highly recommend. It is so fun and we love seeing our family and friends posting their images from the booth :) Thanks so much Photo Bus KC and your entire team!
Everyone had a blast in the Photobus for our wedding! Everything worked as promised. I would highly recommend.
The Photo Bus was hands down the BEST event, after the wedding itself. So much fun, interactive and John and Cate were spectacular to work with. They made special props for our farm based wedding and it was "amazing". We love you guys!
The team was so easy to work with. My husband and I even ended up changing our minds about a couple of the details (which booth option, what time to take down, how many prints, etc.) close to the last minute, and there were no problems whatsoever. We also loved the design they came up with for our photo prints, based off just a couple of questions and my instagram. 10/10 would recommend the Photo Bus to anyone planning a wedding.
A true must have for any event. My fiance and I were both wanting a photo booth, and after visiting a bridal show she knew this is exactly what she wanted. And I am glad she did. The Photo Bus was a hit! There was always a line of guests wanting to get photos together, and the book that we received after always makes us laugh. Definitely would recommend.
The open air photo booth was a hit at or wedding and they were so much fun to work with. They were able to cartoonize our puppies to create a fun & custom photo strip for our big day!
This was a MUST HAVE for our wedding. I have a deep love for photography and Volkswagen's, so this was a no brainer. From my very first email to the day of, it was so easy, stress free. Even the emails just brightened my day. The enthusiasm from the emails was exciting and reassuring that we had made the right choice, with the right company! The actual bus, when it pulled up was an immediate hit! Then the inside/background to the props, it was all so cute, so perfect! Since we so busy with the wedding it was great to get an email with all of the pictures so I could see them all! totally worth every cent! And I heard only good things from all of my guests!! Would totally recommend them over and over again!
We've booked The Photo Bus for two separate functions and can't say enough wonderful things about them. If we could give them more than 5 stars, we would! They're easy to work with and make the entire process a breeze. John and Cate are both highly involved owners with a passion for fantastic customer service and results. The only mistake you'll make is if you don't book The Photo Bus for your next event!
The Photo Bus was an awesome experience for my corporate-type event! The bus was a focal point of the room, easy to set-up and guests loved the experience. Highly recommend!
I loved working with The Photo Bus Team! Cate was helpful through the process and made the experience easy. Always responded quickly and professionally, I highly recommend! Thank you for making networking event extra fun and special! :)
After experiencing the GIF booth at a friend's wedding, we knew it was a MUST at ours! We had so much fun and loved seeing the pictures of our guests! Instead of a traditional guest book, this is what we will use to remember our special night. Thanks to Cate and Ali for all the help1
I HIGHLY recommend The Photo Bus and their attendant Kit!! We used the Open Air Booth and it was a hit all night!!! Kit was very attentive to the needs of our guests and kept the line flowing all night! The company posted copies of all the photos online the next day or so and I loved seeing all the photos! Everyone had so much fun with this and STILL talk about the booth almost two months later! They also email you a link to the individual photos, which is a plus!
We used The Photo Bus (open air booth) at our annual convention and trade show and it was a big hit with our attendees! Communication with The Photo Bus was great from beginning to end. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a fun addition to their wedding or event!
This 5 star review is so easy to write! John, Cate and Ali are all amazing to work with! They are responsive, kind and always willing to help out. As a bride, I knew I wanted to work with these guys a long time ago and I continue to refer them to my clients over and over again. My family and friends had SOOO MUCH FUN in the blue bus. I don't think anyone had experienced The PhotoBus first hand so it was a nice treat and upgrade from a normal photobooth. Such a great add to our wedding day. Our day was perfect and I have all my vendors to thank for that! Thanks for being so amazing guys!!
The Photo Bus group is great. Responsive, professional, in time and just plain fun.
The photo bus is the cutest concept for an interactive activity for guests and the fact that it is inside an actual working and adorable drivable buggy van makes it that much better.
We previously saw the photo bus at an event when we were viewing union station for our wedding and immediately knew we wanted it our wedding.
Most of my coordinating was done with Ali and she was so friendly and helpful. She showed us all the different back drops we could choose from and then had a custom logo created for us with flowers and our names for the pictures that get printed out immediately for the guests right after they finish up their photo session. I loved that we got all the guests Photos emailed to us as well.... it was fun looking at everyone’s pics. Would 10/10 recommend adding the photo bus to your reception if you’re looking for something unique and fun!
We loved the Photo Bus at my daughter's wedding! They were easy to work with online and in person.
The photos were great and were a great keepsake for wedding guests.
Thank you for the fun addition to her wedding!
This was such an incredible idea to have at our wedding! Everyone loved it and the kids had a blast! Definitely a fun way to document all the memories from our big day. Best decision ever!!
We used the photo bus for our wedding last weekend and it was a huge hit! All our guests loved it and there was constantly people in line to get their picture taken. Everyone at the photo bus company was so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect! We could not have picked a better photo booth company!
Photo Bus is amazing! They made us an awesome customized banner for the bottom of our photos that perfectly captured the style of our wedding. Our guests all loved it and had a great time. I would HIGHLY recommend using the Photo Bus as your guestbook. They print you all of the photos and give you a nice book to take home - the same night as the wedding! We love ours and it is a great and fun keepsake to have. The entire Photo Bus team was great and easy to work with.
We booked them for our wedding reception and it was awesome! We went with the GIF booth because it was a more affordable option for us and it turned out super fun! We worked mostly with Ali, but John and Cate are also amazing and very attentive. Ali responded to emails very quickly and they even used our invitation design as part of the background. The Photo Bus company is definitely the way to go!!
Fabulous! Very professional and great to work with. LOVE THEM!
The Photo Bus was absolutely one of the best vendors I worked with for our wedding day! We decided somewhat late (in "wedding time") that we absolutely wanted a photo booth for our reception. Ali was such a pleasure to work with and took all the anxiety out of booking TPB with only about 6 weeks until our date. We booked the open air booth and were blown away by the quality of the gold sequined background and props they had for us to use! The photo print outs were also of high quality and were the size of a regular photo (which make them easy to frame since they weren't the super skinny strip photos). Everyone had so much fun taking pictures- we will truly treasure these captured moments from our wedding reception. I highly reccomend them for any event!
We just used the Photo Bus for our wedding and I would HIGHLY RECCOMEND THEM! They were so worth the money and all of our guests loved being able to use the photo bus to take pictures. We did our guest book through them and it was such a fun way to remember the day. Book them now!
We booked the Photo Bus for our family reunion at the KC Royals game and it was a huge hit with the entire family!!! Ali was so helpful with booking all of the details and John was awesome taking all of the pictures and helping make sure we got a photo of every family member. I would highly recommend the Photo Bus for any event!!!
We loved using photo bus KC! We had the open air booth at our May 26, 2018 wedding at The Grand Hall at Power and Light. Their team was very helpful and responsive. The team that was there on wedding day was also very helpful with using the booth! I loved having this for our guests and it was a hit all night long!
I am a wedding photographer and occasionally a guest at weddings. When I see The Photo Bus at any event, I have a sense of ease because I know everyone will be thrilled with the entire experience. Whether or not you go full bus or one of their booths with a backdrop, you cannot go wrong. Their entire staff is professional and kind, always my favorite to work with and see as a guest at weddings and events.
Seriously, what are you waiting for? Book them right now!
I was introduced to The Photo Bus several years ago at a friend’s wedding, and ever since then I knew I wanted to have them at my wedding! They were so wonderful to work with. They are the friendliest, most easy-going people, and they added so much fun to our reception! I loved looking back through the photos after our wedding and know we will cherish them for years to come! I have no doubt that they made our reception a hit!
We had SUCH A BLAST with the Photo Bus at the wedding. Ali kept everything moving right along so everyone could have fun taking photos without waiting long at all. Plus she was awesome about handing out props and prompting everyone when to be ready. The timing we worked out had them set up the open air booth in the middle of dinner but she was so quiet and subtle that I didn't even notice! Our guests are STILL sharing the gifs and photos online - it was so much more than smile and snap static photo booth, the Photo Bus was a HUGE part of the party! Also very helpfully, she saved all the photos that my husband and wedding party were in and gave them to us at the end of the night, which I really appreciated. Thank you Ali and The Photo Bus KC!
Gif Booth was even more fun than we thought it would be. One of the highlights from our wedding was going through the 200+ gifs, photos and boomerangs when we got back to our hotel at 3am. Seriously so much fun! And their entire team was lovely to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond and never pushy.
My husband and I used The Photo Bus for our wedding last May, and they were absolutely fabulous. The red photo bus came to our reception site and it was perfect. Cate was so easy to talk to, very responsive to messages and provided the best photo experience for us. Everyone at the reception had a blast. Aside from the cool book everyone signed with all of our photos we also go the digital copies. I would use The Photo Bus again for events in the future! Super easy to work with and so happy we used them over any other photo booth.
I used The Photo Bus's awesome gif/social open air booth for an event I was hosting. My guests loved getting to play in the booth, and share the images they took on social media. It was really a highlight of my event! Every step of the way John, Cate, and their staff were so accommodating and easy to work with. Hosting events can be stressful, but they made it easier and I am so appreciative. Not to mention, their booth is amazing, the background options are options, and it's so easy to use. I LOVE The Photo Bus!
We used The Photo Bus's open air photo booth for our wedding this past October and they were a huge hit! They were a pleasure to work with (including a last minute change to our type of photo booth) and our guests loved it -- there was always a short line waiting! The photo book that we got that night has been a fun way to relive an amazing night!
We used The Photo Bus for our work Holiday party and it was a big hit! This is the second time that we have used them, and we will definitely use them in the future!
They were amazing and attentive. Not only did they seem happy and anxious to be a part of our big day, but they also saved all the photos I left behind! As a busy bride, I appreciated being able to find all my photos in one place the next morning. Thanks!!
I e-mailed with Cate and worked personally with John on the day of our wedding. WITHOUT A DOUBT-- a must have at your wedding! John was fantastic and his colleague (I can't remember her name, so sorry) manned the photo booth and kept our memento book organized and our guests happy. I decided to get the photo book at the last minute and I'm SO GLAD I DID! My husband and I flipped through it before going to bed and have multiple times since! If you're on the fence, pull the trigger, get the book!! Would recommend the photobus to anyone and everyone. Stellar organization, stellar employees, incredible memories!!
A great addition to any wedding and definitely a guest favorite!
Book them. Seriously. The PhotoBus was absolutely a highlight from our wedding, it created some of our favorite memories and the online albums and printed photos are things we still see at our friends and family members homes long after our wedding. The attendant working the bus for our event felt like a family friend by the end of the night. John and Cate went above and beyond to make sure that everything was absolutely perfect for us. If I had to pick only one vendor for my wedding this is the one I would pick hands down.
We used The Photo Bus for our wedding reception and had the BEST experience! They were super easy to work with, really fun and the guests LOVED it! At the end of their time with us, we received a photo book with all the pix from the night plus things that people wrote to us. It has been a really fun way for us to look back on one of the best times of our lives. :)
PERFECT FIT for any occasion! The Photo Bus staff were great to work with...both before and during our event.
One of the highlights of our wedding. Memorable and tasteful. Staff was extremely easy to work with, responsive, and patient. Do it!
The Photo Bus is incredible. Their staff is helpful, friendly and quick to respond. I've had events with both buses available in Kansas City, and they are both in great shape and the highlight of the party. Would recommend all of my colleagues, family and friends use the Photo Bus at their next event!
I met Cate and John at the Bridal Spectacular, and once I laid eyes on that beautiful red bus I knew I had to have it. They are wonderful to work with and exceeded our expectations! Everyone was so surprised and impressed by the the level of service and photo quality. Now, days later everyone is still talking about the bus! We will definitely be using them again in the future.
When we saw John + Cate at the KC Bridal show, I just KNEW that they had the booth for me! My husband and I got married in March 2017. We got engaged in Chicago, during that weekend of giddiness, we took photos in an enclosed photo booth. We loved the experience and intimacy of it. During the bridal show, I got to share the experience with my mom, future MiL and my bff. It was such a great time and I knew it would be a hit. I underestimated its popularity, for sure. At our wedding, we had a LINE of guests waiting to take photos...THE WHOLE NIGHT. What made the Photo Bus booth unique is the customization and the props. John & Cate have some of the best props out there. Highly recommend!
FANTASTIC! John at the Photo Bus was on time for our event, very professional and friendly to all. The communication leading up to our event was timely and they answered all of my crazy questions. Recommend for any event!
Wow! They're great to work with, they exceeded my expectations, and my guests loved it. Highly recommend!
The Photo Bus was such a hit! Everyone enjoyed it and are still talking about it. It went perfect with our vintage theme. The attendants were professional and kind. You must get the photo book! It was so much fun looking through it and seeing everyone's picture along with their comments. All of the guest got to take a copy with them which was nice also!
Statement Maker!! The bus was such a cool addition to my venue (Union Station Kansas City) and customer service was awesome. I know my little nieces each did 5 or more sessions in the booth and they were able to do as many as they wanted! They provided digital images and it shows people from babies to 90-yr-olds having a blast.
I absolutely LOVE the Photo Bus and just adore Cate and John! The Photo Bus is a MUST especially if you have a space where the bus can fit inside. It not only provided fun entertainment and pics of all of our wedding guests but decor for the event as well. The print outs provided for the perfect gift take away for our guests, but they also post them on FB so you can tag everyone. They are so great to work with, I can't wait to hire them again :)
Love the photo bus! It added such a fun dynamic to our reception. Guests were lining up to utilize it. It was probably the best decision we made for our reception and it was super last minute. Cate was so fantastic to work with. She made things simple and FUN! It is really fun to look back on those pictures and remember who was at our wedding. Thanks again!
John and Cate were so amazing! They personalized our event with the cutest print out that matched our invite and included our dog. Our guest loved that they got to include pistachio in the pictures!! It was the most thoughtful touch! Our guest absolutely loved it. Best photo booth ever.
