Common Questions

Before you book.

Do you serve all Scarborough venues including community halls and banquet spaces?+
Yes. Akari is fully self-powered and requires no venue electricity or WiFi. We operate at any licensed venue in Scarborough (banquet halls, community centres, church halls, hotel event rooms, and outdoor tents) without any coordination with venue staff about power or connectivity.
Can Akari handle large Scarborough receptions with 200+ guests?+
Yes. Large events are where Akari performs best. A corner booth fails at scale. Guests at far tables never find it. Akari's roaming format ensures every table gets covered regardless of room size or guest count. We regularly serve 200-350 person events across Scarborough banquet halls.
Does Akari work well for Caribbean, South Asian, and multicultural events?+
Absolutely. Multicultural celebrations are among our most common events in Scarborough. Long receptions, high-energy rooms, multi-generational guest lists. Akari adapts to any format. The overlay can be designed to reflect your cultural aesthetic, and we've covered Caribbean, South Asian, Filipino, and Afro-Caribbean events extensively across the area.
What does the custom print overlay include?+
We design a branded overlay specific to your event: names, date, logo, colour palette, or cultural motifs. A proof is sent before the event for your approval. Nothing goes to print without your sign-off.
How far in advance should I book for Scarborough?+
As early as possible for peak season and major cultural celebration dates: summer weddings and long weekends fill fastest. That said, we regularly accommodate last-minute bookings. Send us your date and we'll confirm availability within minutes.
Is Akari insured?+
Yes. Akari carries full liability insurance and can provide documentation to any Scarborough venue that requires it. We handle the paperwork in advance so there are no surprises on the night.
Is the piloted photobooth rental accessible for guests with mobility limitations?+
Yes. Because the robot comes to each guest at their seat, it is naturally inclusive for guests in wheelchairs, guests with limited mobility, and older or elderly guests who would not queue at a corner photo booth. The entire event photography experience happens at table level: no standing, no walking, no queue. For the multigenerational event profiles common in Scarborough, this is one of the roaming format's most valued features.
How is guest contact information handled after the event?+
Phone numbers and email addresses collected at digital delivery are used solely to send the guest their photo. We do not store, sell, or market to guest contact information beyond that purpose. Contact data is removed from our systems after the post-event gallery delivery window closes. Our data practices comply with CASL and PIPEDA.
Can guests choose not to provide their contact details?+
Yes. Digital delivery is completely opt-in. Guests who prefer not to share their phone number or email simply take their instant print and move on. No data is collected from anyone who declines. The instant print is theirs regardless.
When is the post-event gallery delivered and how long is it available?+
Your private online gallery is delivered within 48 hours of your event. It contains every photo from the night in full resolution, organised chronologically. The gallery remains accessible for 30 days from delivery, with individual image and full archive download available. Extended hosting is available on request.
What happens if there is a technical issue during the event?+
Our operator is on-site for the full duration and resolves any technical issue immediately. We carry backup consumables for all events. In the rare case of a hardware failure that cannot be resolved on-site, we provide a full or partial refund proportional to lost coverage time. We have never had to end an event early due to a technical fault.
