FAQs

How much does it cost?

We charge R3000 per event, for an unlimited amount of voice recordings. This includes delivery to your event and collection once it’s over.

Will the device need to be plugged in?

Nope, our audio guestbooks have a built-in battery pack and should last for 12 hours. There’s no need to place them near a power outlet, but we do recommend you choose a quiet spot without too much background noise.

Can I supply a custom recording for guests to hear before they leave their messages?

Absolutely! We need to set up the pre-recorded message before we deliver the device to you, so all we ask is that you send your voice note to us within seven days of your event. If you choose not to have a custom recording, your phone will be delivered with the standard “Please leave a message after the beep” message.

There is no extra cost for a custom recording.

How will the voice notes be shared after the event?

We’ll pass along all your recordings in two formats; simple audio files (like a voice note) and videos perfect for social media with a cover picture of your choosing.

How long will it take to receive the final voice notes?

Seven days (but usually sooner!)

Do you work with wedding and event planners?

Yes, of course! If you’re an event planer, send a mail to info@leaveamessage.co.za and let us you’re interested in working together.

What colours do the audio guestbooks come in?

Black, ivory and a gorgeous blue! We’d love to hear from you if there’s a particular colour you’re interested in, with enough time we can organise just about any colour!

Can you include a chair and table for guests to sit at when they use the audio guestbook?

Because each event has a different look and feel, we think it’s best to leave this up to you. We’ll supply the phone, and we recommend you designate a small area for people to leave a message. Including a frame or easel with information on what the device is all about is a good idea too - we’re happy to help you word this if you like.

How long can voice recordings be?

Your guests can leave messages up to 2 minutes long - once the time limit has been reached they’ll hear a beep to know the recording is over. They can always pick up the phone again and record another message!
