"We are so grateful to PBG Entertainment! They generously provided a classic photo booth for our nonprofit's annual fundraiser, and they were fantastic to work with. The customer service was excellent."
"Overall they did a great job. The white booth with props came out perfectly. It had that added vibe to the party. They were easy to talk to and followed instructions well."

Three reasons your event runs without a hitch — every time.
SetupOur setup crew arrives 90 minutes before guests do. Every booth is calibrated, tested, and styled to the venue before the first guest walks in — so when the party starts, the booth doesn’t need a second of your attention.
TemplatesOur in-house designer builds your template from scratch using your colors, your monogram, and your event date. Every template ships at proof stage 5 days before the event so you have time to refine. Zero stock layouts, zero compromise — every single strip carries your name.
ReliabilityCameras, printers, lighting, and laptops get a full diagnostic and tune-up every single week — not just the morning of your event. That’s how we’ve delivered 5,500+ events without a no-show. Reliability isn’t luck. It’s a schedule.
From hotel ballrooms to country club terraces to private estates — we've set up at every kind of La Quinta room. We arrive knowing where the outlets are, which freight elevator to use, and how to load in without breaking step.

Same setup, same crew, same response time across all La Quinta ZIPs (92247, 92248, 92253). If your venue has a 110V outlet and a 10×10 ft footprint, we're set up.
PGA West is world-famous with multiple championship courses.
Old Town La Quinta runs a Spanish Revival pedestrian village along Calle Estado with the weekly farmers market, Old Town Cellar, Stuft Pizza, and a courtyard that hosts the holiday tree lighting. Engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, gallery openings, and small corporate receptions fill the venues here, especially during the American Express golf tournament in January and the Coachella and Stagecoach run in April.
La Quinta Cove sits at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains in a tight grid of small-lot homes that back up against the Bear Creek Trail and the Cove Oasis trailhead. Backyard birthday parties, milestone anniversaries, hiker-themed engagement parties, and small wedding receptions dominate here. Streets are narrow with on-street parking on both sides, so a single van load-in works better than multiple vehicles.
The Citrus Club is a guard-gated community off Avenue 50 with three nine-hole courses laid out through mature citrus groves planted on the original ranch land. The clubhouse hosts member weddings, holiday parties, charity golf tournament dinners, and milestone birthdays, and the on-course Grove Pavilion handles ceremony-and-reception flips with a separate catering kitchen.
SilverRock Resort wraps an Arnold Palmer Classic course at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains and serves as the practice rounds host for The American Express PGA tournament every January. The clubhouse and event lawn handle weddings, tournament-week sponsor parties, corporate retreats from the new Montage and Pendry hotels coming online, and milestone birthdays.
Rancho La Quinta Country Club is a guard-gated community off Washington Street with two championship courses by Robert Trent Jones Jr and Jerry Pate and a hacienda-style clubhouse that hosts member weddings, anniversary parties, charity galas, and bar mitzvahs. The Hacienda ballroom and the lawn off the 18th green each support full ceremony-and-reception flows.
Tradition Golf Club is a guard-gated enclave of 280 homes around an Arnold Palmer course built on the original 1920s La Quinta hacienda land, with Spanish colonial casitas and courtyard fountains throughout. Member-only weddings, milestone birthdays, and small corporate retreats run through the historic Hacienda clubhouse, which preserves the original adobe structures.
Griffin Ranch sits on 300 acres of Merv Griffin's former estate off Avenue 54, with a 10,000 square foot clubhouse, eight pickleball courts, an equestrian center boarding up to 80 horses, and a Saddle Club barn that handles rustic-themed weddings and milestone parties. Birthday parties at the junior Olympic pool cantina and corporate retreats round out the calendar.
Washington Park anchors the commercial corridor along Highway 111 with the public library, the Civic Center campus, and the residential streets that feed both. Public events at the Civic Center amphitheater, library fundraisers, school graduations from the nearby La Quinta High campus, and quinceañeras at the surrounding homes drive most of the calendar.

Nine years. 5,500+ events. Every booking still attended personally or by an attendant I trained.
I retired from the U.S. Marine Corps after a full career — seven years in aviation logistics, then years as a career recruiter. Along the way I earned three Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals and a Navy Commendation Medal, all for performance. I started The Photo Booth Guy in 2017 because I couldn't find a photo booth operator in Southern California who treated every event the way I'd want my own wedding handled. So I built one. Every booking is owner-overseen. Every event ships with a uniformed on-site attendant — never a drop-off rental. We're a veteran-owned small business, fully insured, and accepted at every major venue in the Inland Empire.
Nine years in, we've delivered 5,500+ events and earned 619+ five-star reviews on Yelp plus 144+ on Google — and I still personally review every event the morning of. If you have a question before booking, call me directly at (909) 570-1988.

Photo booth rental packages from The Photo Booth Guy are priced between $425 and $1,050, giving clients in La Quinta a range of options depending on the scale and style of their event. The lower end of that range typically covers a solid foundational experience, while packages toward the higher end include additional features, longer rental hours, or premium add-ons that enhance the overall guest experience. Because the company does not publish a one-size-fits-all package menu, reaching out directly is the best way to get a quote tailored to your specific date, venue, and needs. Calling (909) 570-1988 allows you to walk through what matters most for your event and understand exactly what is included at each price point. Given the company's 4.9-star reputation across 750-plus reviews, clients consistently find that the pricing reflects strong value for the quality of service delivered in the La Quinta area.
The Photo Booth Guy is headquartered in Chino, California, and regularly travels to serve clients in La Quinta, Riverside County, and the wider Southern California region. La Quinta sits within the Coachella Valley, and the team is accustomed to making the drive out to the desert to support events there. If you are planning a destination event or a multi-location celebration that extends beyond the immediate La Quinta area, it is worth having a direct conversation with the team about logistics and any applicable travel considerations. The best way to get clear answers on travel availability and fees for your specific date and location is to call (909) 570-1988. The company's broad review base across 750-plus events suggests they have handled a wide variety of travel scenarios and can give you a straightforward answer about what serving your event would involve.
Booking a photo booth with The Photo Booth Guy starts with a simple phone call to (909) 570-1988. From there, the team will walk you through available dates, package options within the $425 to $1,050 price range, and any specific details relevant to your La Quinta event. For weddings and larger corporate events in Riverside County, it is wise to reach out as early as possible, since popular dates in the Coachella Valley book up quickly, particularly during spring and fall when outdoor event season peaks in the desert. Even if your event is a few months out, getting a conversation started early gives you more flexibility to customize your experience and lock in the setup details that matter to you. The Photo Booth Guy's 4.9-star rating across more than 750 reviews reflects a booking and service process that clients consistently describe as smooth and professional from first contact through the final photo printout.
