You are planning a wedding, and your bridal party (the damas de honor, the padrinos, the cousins who are in every photo) may not share one language or one phone. Some of them are more at ease in Spanish, and that is fine: joining your album takes no account and no sign-up form, just a QR code. All of them will be taking pictures from the getting-ready morning to the last dance, and you want one place where those photos end up, without chasing anyone and without handing your wedding to a public site.
What is hard right now
- The getting-ready photos are scattered across six camera rolls, and nobody remembers who took the good one of the bridesmaids.
- Half the bridal party is on iPhone and half on Android, so the group chat compresses the photos and the best shots never arrive at full quality.
- I do not want to ask every bridesmaid and groomsman to download an app and make an account the week of the wedding.
- Some of our family and friends are more comfortable in Spanish, and I do not want a sign-up step that loses them before the first photo.
Scenarios
The getting-ready morning
The bridesmaids are curling hair and opening gifts while the photographer is with the groom. Someone has taped a QR code to the mirror. Each bridesmaid scans it, joins from her phone browser with no account, and her photos land in the same album as everyone else's.
It does not matter who is on iPhone and who is on Android, or whether the group chat that morning is in Spanish, English or a mix of both. Everyone joins the same way. If someone would rather type than scan, there is an eight-character invite too.
Ceremony, reception and after-party
You split the day into Moments: ceremony, reception, after-party. Each Moment has its own QR code and its own reveal timing, so the bridal party moves from one stage of the day to the next without switching apps.
The album stays organised by part of the day, which means the padrinos' dance-floor shots are not mixed in with the vows. If you are still deciding how to collect photos from the wider guest list, this guide to collecting wedding photos without the chaos is a good next read.
Seeing the photos when you choose
You pick a reveal mode. During lets the bridal party see photos as they are taken. After the event unlocks the gallery when the wedding ends. Additional delay unlocks it a set number of hours after the event ends.
You keep the surprise for the honeymoon flight if you want it, or you let everyone enjoy the day live. It is your call, and you set it per event.
Finding your favourites afterwards
A week later you want only your maid of honor's shots. You filter the album by photographer, then export your favorites to keep or send to the family.
Because everything went to one album, you are not asking six people to dig through their camera rolls. And the album stays private: we don't sell your photos or your data. No ads. No cross-app tracking.
Features that make this work
QR code invites
Every member of your bridal party joins from a QR code or an eight-character invite, from any modern phone browser, with no account required.
Reveal modes
Choose whether your bridal party sees photos live, after the wedding, or a set number of hours after it ends.
Private event albums
Photos are encrypted in transit and kept in event-scoped storage, so the getting-ready and after-party shots stay with the people you invited.
Guest upload
The free tier covers up to 7 guest uploaders per event. SYNC PRO is a one-time purchase per event if your wedding needs more room.
