What Is an Audio & Video Phone Booth?
Handed a pen, most guests write “Congrats!” and move on. Handed a phone in a quiet corner, the same guest tells you the story of the night they met you. Here is the whole thing in four steps:
- 01
Pick up the phone
Guests lift the handset of a vintage payphone. It is the most familiar object in the room, so nobody needs to be shown how.
- 02
Hear your greeting
Your own personalized greeting plays first and tells guests what kind of message you would love: advice, a memory, a toast.
- 03
Leave a video + voice message
The built-in camera records their face while they speak. Hang up and the message is saved. As many guests as you like, as often as they like.
- 04
Keep every message
After the event you receive all the messages as digital files: yours to keep, replay on anniversaries and share with family.
Faces and voices, not just signatures
A voice-only phone captures sound. Ours records video too, so you see who is talking, the raised eyebrow, the laugh, the friend who cannot get through the sentence. Three hours into a reception, “hi, it's me!” is a lot easier to place when you can see the face.
It also reaches the guests every other station misses: the ones who will not go near a camera will often happily pick up a phone in a quiet corner.

Best Events for a Phone Booth
Anywhere the value is in what people say, not just how the night looked.
Weddings
Advice for year one, toasts from people who did not get the microphone, and grandparents in their own words.
Milestone birthdays
A 30th, 50th or 80th where every guest has a story about the same person and nowhere else to tell it.
Retirements & anniversaries
Colleagues and old friends leave the speech they would never give in front of a room.
Bridal & baby showers
A small room of people who know her well. Messages she will play again on the big day.
Celebrations of life
Set up quietly, with no branding, and the family receives every message privately.
Photos, video and messages in one night
The phone booth runs beside any of our booths. These are real GTABOOTH360 events with the booth you would pair it with.
Your guests' messages belong to you, so you will never see them on our website or social media. Photos of the phone set up at our events are on their way to this page. Want to see it in person first? Ask us.
Three tips for the best messages
- Ask one question in your greeting. “Tell us your best advice for year one” beats a generic beep every time.
- Put it near the bar or lounge, not under the DJ speakers and not around a corner where nobody finds it.
- Have the MC mention it once. One sentence from the microphone turns the phone from decoration into an invitation.

Audio & Video Phone Booth FAQ
How much does an audio & video phone booth rental cost in Toronto?
+
The Audio & Video Phone Booth is $125/hr with a 2-hour minimum, so $250 for 2 hours, plus HST. It is added to any booth you book with us, and there is no travel fee anywhere in the GTA. Build your exact total on our pricing calculator.
What is an audio & video phone booth?
+
It is a vintage-style payphone with a built-in screen and camera. Guests lift the handset, hear a greeting you choose, and leave a message that records video as well as voice, so you keep the faces and expressions, not just the words.
Can I rent the phone booth on its own?
+
It is designed as an add-on. Pair it with the Mirror Booth, Magic Mirror Booth, 360 Video Booth or Portrait Station and it runs alongside your booth for at least two hours.
Do guests need an app or any instructions?
+
No app, no account and no sign-up. Guests pick up the handset, listen to your greeting, speak, and hang up. A small sign on the table is all the instruction anyone needs.
How do we get the messages after the event?
+
Every message is delivered to you digitally after the event as files you can download, keep and share. The messages are private to you. We never post your guests' messages online.
Can we record our own greeting?
+
Yes. A personalized greeting is included. Asking one specific question, like your best advice for our first year or your favourite memory of us, gets far better messages than a generic beep.
How much space does the phone booth need?
+
About the footprint of a side table. The best spot is a slightly quieter corner near the bar, the lounge or the entrance, where guests walk past it but are not performing for the whole room.
Is there a limit on how many messages guests can leave?
+
No. Messages are unlimited for the hours you book. One announcement from your MC pointing guests to the phone makes a real difference to how many you get.
