Wedding Rental FAQ

How does a wedding claw machine rental work?

We deliver a full-size claw machine to your venue, set it up, and pick it up after. The machine is $750 for 6 hours, with delivery, pickup, and plushie packs priced separately. Custom branding available.

Can you customize the claw machine for our wedding?

Yes. Our $350 wedding branding kit personalizes the machine with your names and date: a glowing acrylic marquee sign, a printed backdrop, and a matching header decal. Machine wraps also available for full visual branding.

When during the wedding does the claw machine work best?

Cocktail hour and late-night are the most popular. Guests love it as a surprise entertainment moment.

What prizes go in the claw machine at a wedding?

Plushie packs are available as an add-on, or you can supply your own wedding favors or custom items to put in the machine.

Do you need a dedicated power source?

Just a standard 120V outlet within 25 feet. Works indoors or outdoors under cover.

Will a claw machine fit in our wedding venue?

Almost always. The machine stands about 7 feet tall with a footprint around 3 by 3 feet, and our crew handles the loading. Send us a photo of the spot or the venue name and we will confirm before you book.

Where do you deliver wedding claw machine rentals?

Throughout the San Francisco Bay Area: San Francisco, the Peninsula, San Jose, the East Bay, and Marin. We have set up at hotel ballrooms, wineries, barns, and backyards. Ask us about venues further out.

Do guests keep the prizes they win?

Yes. Every plushie or favor a guest wins goes home with them, which is why couples use the machine as their wedding favor. Stock it with our plushie pack or your own custom favors.
