How a QR Code Wedding Gallery Actually Works

What a guest actually sees

They open their phone's camera, point it at the code, and a private gallery page opens in the browser — no app store, no download. They type their first name (so you know who shared what), then tap to upload photos or videos straight from their camera roll or camera. That's the entire flow, start to finish, in under a minute.

Where the photos go

Every upload lands in one private gallery tied to your wedding, in full original resolution — not the compressed, cropped version a group chat or social app would produce. You see everything organized by guest and by time, from your own dashboard.

Is the gallery actually private?

• ✓The page isn't public or indexed — only someone with your QR code (or the link it encodes) can open it.
• ✓File links are signed, not guessable or browsable.
• ✓Only you see which guest uploaded which photo — guests just see the shared gallery, if you choose to turn that on.
• ✓Nothing posts automatically to social media.

What else lives behind the same QR code

Once guests are on the page, it's a natural place for more than photo uploads: a live slideshow for the venue screen, song requests for the DJ, a digital menu card, and — on the Pro plan — table games with timed photo missions and a time-capsule message guests can leave for your first anniversary. One scan, one page, no juggling five different apps.

Setting it up for your wedding

You build the page in your dashboard — names, colors, a welcome message, and your own photo — then download a print-ready QR code. Put it on tables, the welcome sign, or tucked into the menu. There's no printing service to wait on and no separate sign-up flow for guests to stumble through.
