Frequently Asked Questions
General FAQs
Q: Is it possible to have both of the vehicles for an event?
A: Yes! As long as both vehicles are free the day of your event you can book both of them.
Q: I would like to get a photographer for the event as well, can VintageFiesta do that too?
A: Sure! Just call us and let us know that you are interested in having us photograph the event as well. You can check out our additional services for more info.
Q: I am trying to decide between renting the Airstream or the VW Bus, what do you recommend?
A: Both vehicles are awesome and will be a super fun attraction at your event. However, the vehicles are different. The Bus works great for smaller events because it can fit less people. The Airstream not only has more room for people to take pictures in, but it also has a separate lounge space, so it is perfect for larger events. Also, keep in mind that the Airstream takes up more room than the bus, so if its a tight fit,the Bus might be a better option.
Q: What happens if it starts raining at my event?
A: One of the best things about VintageFiesta is that we have the ability to bring everything we need inside the vehicles themselves. If it happens to rain at your event, we can pull our prop box inside and your guests can take cover inside the vehicle! If the whole event is rained out and moves indoors, we are able to setup an open photo booth indoors as well.

A: Yes! If you give us advanced notice we can tailor a custom prop package for your event. Check out our add-ons for more info on additional options that can be customized.

A: Yes absolutely! We can design a custom overly with any custom text and graphics of your choice, such as, event information, sponsor logo, promotional branding elements, and more.
Q: How far in advance do we need to book the vehicles?
A: This really depends on how busy we are. Please check with us on availability, and we can reserve the date with a signed contract and deposit. If the vehicle you want is not available for your date, we might be able to offer another type of service for your event.
