"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 San Jacinto room. We arrive knowing where the outlets are, which freight elevator to use, and how to load in without breaking step.
Resort/Casino
Same setup, same crew, same response time across all San Jacinto ZIPs (92581, 92582, 92583). If your venue has a 110V outlet and a 10×10 ft footprint, we're set up.
Downtown San Jacinto runs along Main Street and Idyllwild, anchored by the San Jacinto Community Center, the Estudillo Mansion, and the historic civic core around City Hall. The community center ballroom and the mansion grounds carry most of the weekend wedding and quinceañera calendar, along with the Eastern Riverside chamber's civic events.
Soboba Springs sits on the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians reservation on the east side of San Jacinto, anchored by Soboba Casino Resort, the Country Club at Soboba Springs, and the resort event lawn. The casino ballrooms, golf course clubhouse, and outdoor terrace handle weddings, corporate appreciation nights, tribal celebrations, and the Soboba Foundation galas.
Park Hill offers family-friendly neighborhoods with mountain views.
Seven Oaks is a quiet residential pocket on the north side of San Jacinto, a tree-lined neighborhood of single-story ranch homes and family-owned parcels off Cottonwood and Seventh. Most events here are backyard graduations, baby showers, milestone birthdays, and the occasional small home wedding.
East San Jacinto runs up to the foot of Mt. San Jacinto and the State Park boundary, with view lots looking straight at the granite face. Foothill weddings on private acreage, milestone anniversary parties, and outdoor engagement gatherings make up most of the calendar, often timed to the late-afternoon golden hour against the mountain backdrop.
West San Jacinto covers the newer tract neighborhoods toward the Hemet line, built out with master-planned communities, HOA clubhouses, and the parks around Hewitt and Sanderson. The clubhouses and community pool pavilions carry most of the recurring bookings: birthday parties, baby showers, retirement gatherings, and small wedding receptions.
The Ramona Bowl Amphitheatre has been hosting the Ramona Pageant in the foothills above San Jacinto since 1923, and the surrounding neighborhood draws on that history for cast parties, donor receptions, milestone anniversaries, and outdoor weddings on the bowl lawn.
The San Jacinto Avenue corridor is the commercial spine cutting through the city, lined with banquet halls, taquerias, and event spaces serving the surrounding neighborhoods. Quinceañeras, weddings, and large family birthday celebrations carry most of the weekend hall calendar, often booked back-to-back on Friday and Saturday nights.
Mountain View Estates is a hillside residential neighborhood with view lots framed against the San Jacinto range, made up of larger custom homes on quarter-acre and bigger parcels. Backyard weddings, milestone birthdays, anniversary dinners, and graduation celebrations make up most of the events here, usually staged on the rear patio facing the mountain.

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.

Saturdays in San Jacinto fill up 4–8 weeks out and peak wedding season (April–October) often books 3–6 months in advance. If you have a specific date in mind, lock it in as early as possible. We can sometimes accommodate last-minute requests with 1–2 weeks notice.
Yes — we cover every neighborhood and venue in San Jacinto, from private residences to hotels, banquet halls, country clubs, and outdoor venues. We cover all of Riverside County with no extra travel fees inside our standard service radius.
Weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, school dances, graduations, holiday parties, fundraisers, and brand activations. We bring the same professional setup to a backyard birthday in San Jacinto as we do to a 500-guest gala — only the package size changes.
Our standard open-air booth needs a 10x10 ft area with access to a single power outlet. The 360 booth needs slightly more — about 12x12 ft. We can work in tighter spaces too; just send us a quick photo of the spot during planning and we'll confirm fit.

Photo booth rental pricing from The Photo Booth Guy ranges from approximately 425 dollars on the lower end to around 1,050 dollars for more comprehensive packages, giving clients in San Jacinto a range of options depending on the scale and style of their event. The base starting price typically covers core rental time and standard service, while higher-tier packages are likely to include additional hours, premium props, custom print designs, or enhanced digital features. Because the company has not published a detailed breakdown of every tier online, the best way for San Jacinto residents to understand exactly what each package covers is to call The Photo Booth Guy directly at 909-570-1988 and discuss the specific needs of the event. Pricing can vary depending on the day of the week, the duration of the rental, and any add-ons requested. Getting a custom quote early in the planning process helps avoid surprises and ensures the package is sized correctly for the guest count and venue at hand.
The Photo Booth Guy is headquartered in Chino, California, and regularly travels to serve clients throughout Riverside County, including San Jacinto. The drive from Chino to San Jacinto puts the city well within the company's typical service radius, making it a practical choice for events in the San Jacinto Valley. For events that fall outside the standard service area or involve multiple locations, it is worth contacting the team at 909-570-1988 to discuss whether a travel fee applies and how logistics would be handled. The company's willingness to travel across a broad stretch of Southern California reflects its commitment to being accessible to clients regardless of where their event is hosted. Destination events, multi-venue corporate gatherings, or celebrations held in more remote parts of Riverside County can all be discussed directly with the team, who will provide clear information about any distance-related costs before a contract is signed.
Booking a photo booth from The Photo Booth Guy for a San Jacinto event starts with a phone call to 909-570-1988, where the team can walk through available dates, package options, and any customization the event might need. Given the company's strong 4.9-star reputation and volume of events across Riverside County, popular dates on weekends and during peak wedding and holiday seasons can fill up quickly. For weddings, it is generally advisable to book at least three to six months in advance to secure the preferred date. Corporate events, school functions, and birthday parties may have more flexibility, but booking early is still recommended to avoid losing a date to another client. During the initial conversation, having the event date, venue address, expected guest count, and a rough sense of how long the rental is needed will help the team recommend the right package and provide an accurate quote for the San Jacinto event.
