These Terms & Conditions set out an agreement between the Hire Provider (Emerald Lion Photo Booths Limited) and the Hirer (the person, organisation or company booking the equipment for hire from the Hire Provider). Upon booking (either verbally or electronically), it is deemed that the Hirer has read, fully understood, and agreed to the Hire Providers Terms & Conditions.
The equipment consists of any item of hire, including props. All equipment remains, at all times, the property of Emerald Lion Photo Booths Limited. All our equipment is for indoor use only in a weatherproof area on dry, level, hard surface flooring/ground.
In the event of the Hire, Provider being unable to attend your event due to reasons beyond their control such as (but not limited to) adverse weather conditions, road closures, vehicle breakdown, illness, death, or equipment failure, the Hire Provider’s liability will be limited to refunding all of the monies already paid by Hirer to Hire Provider for that service.

Package prices are priced for hire up to and including midnight. Post midnight hire is at the discretion of the Hire Provider and, if approved, will incur additional hire charges.
On receipt of a £50 deposit, Emerald Lion Photo Booths Limited will provide a Photo Booth for your event.

The operator will not operate the booth until payment has been made in full. If hiring both a Photo Booth & LED Letters, a deposit of £100 is required.
Hire time is the length of actual time outlined on your chosen hire package, plus any additional hours pre-ordered and pre-paid for.
Unless otherwise agreed, the booth will print one picture for your photo album. Guests will receive the number of photos outlined in your chosen hire package i.e. one per group or one per guest. Guests may use the booth as many times as they like within the hire period.
Your guests can upload their pictures to Facebook in real-time, but this is subject to wifi connectivity/availability at the event. Please request this service in advance if required.
If available, we will also bring an external printer and computer which will enable guests to purchase key-rings, magnets and larger 6x9 photos. This is offered as an additional service and is not in any way an attempt to commercialise your event. For this additional service, guests are charged £5 per 6 x 9 photo. Key-rings, 6 x 4 reprints and fridge magnets are £3 each. Prices may vary where the advance purchase of 'hire extras' has been made by Hirer
Whilst we encourage the fun use of the booth, if we feel that the booth is not being treated respectfully we will ask the guest(s) involved to leave the booth, and they will not be permitted to re-enter.
We will not accept any threatening behaviour. If this occurs we will stop the use of the booth and dismantle it with no refund. Smoking, food and beverages are not permitted in the Photo Booth at any time.
Any damage/loss to the Hire Providers equipment through misuse, negligence, abuse or theft by the Hirer, their guests, or affiliates, becomes the responsibility of the Hirer. The Hirer shall bear the cost of any such repair. If the equipment becomes damaged beyond repair, the Hirer shall bear the replacement cost and any additional cost as a result of the affected future hire.
In the unlikely event of a technical problem with the Photo Booth, or in any event beyond our control that renders the Photo Booth unusable, a refund will be given pro-rata to any time lost.
