New Bend Booth: Refreshed Brand, Live Availability, Instant Booking

Bend Booth has a new home. Same booth, same owner-operated service, same Central Oregon coverage — but everything around the booking experience just got a serious upgrade. New brand, new site, live calendar, instant online booking, and every add-on priced transparently up front.

If you'd rather just see it in action, check live availability for your date — it pulls our real calendar.

A refreshed brand for Central Oregon

The old site leaned generic — a stock logo, a single hero photo, and a contact form that disappeared into an inbox. The new identity is built around what actually defines Bend Booth: modern memories at the edge of the Cascades. Editorial typography, a warmer palette, and photography from real Central Oregon events instead of stock imagery.

It's the same team and the same booth showing up to your event. The brand just finally looks like the experience guests have when they're standing in front of it.

Live availability — no more guessing

The biggest change: you can now see whether your date is actually open before you do anything else. Type your event date into the homepage or the booking page and the calendar checks our real schedule in real time. If it's available, you can lock it in on the spot. If it's not, we suggest the next open Saturdays.

• →Real calendar — not a generic 'we'll get back to you' form
• →Popularity hints for peak summer Saturdays and holiday weekends
• →Late-booking flag inside the 5-day window so nothing surprises you at checkout

Instant online booking

Pick your date, pick your package, pick your add-ons, pay, done. The whole booking flow lives on the site now — no back-and-forth emails, no waiting on a contract PDF, no chasing an invoice.

• →Pay in full and save 5%, or split 50/50 with the balance due before the event
• →Secure payment processing — receipt and calendar invite sent automatically
• →Automatic reminders so the balance and event details never sneak up on you
• →Late-booking surcharge ($200) only applies inside the 5-day window and is shown before you pay

If you'd rather talk it through first, the contact page and phone line still work exactly the way they always did.

Every add-on, priced up front

Add-ons used to live in an email thread. Now they're on the site, with prices, so you can build your package without guessing.

• →Custom branded photo overlays for weddings, corporate activations, and parties
• →Premium backdrop options — sequin, floral, modern textured, and custom step-and-repeats
• →Extra hours of coverage at a flat hourly rate
• →Idle time for venues with long gaps between ceremony and reception
• →Scrapbook / guest signing station with prints and pens provided
• →AI photo experiences and short-form video with audio for the social-first crowd

Built for the way you actually plan an event

Most of you are planning on your phone, late at night, between fifteen other vendor decisions. The new site is built for that — fast to load, easy to scan, and you can go from 'curious' to 'date locked in' in under five minutes.
