You are planning your wedding, and you know you will miss moments. You will be greeting family, taking portraits or dancing while your guests catch the laughter you never see. Those photos usually end up scattered across phones and group chats. A shared digital wedding picture album gives your guests one place to send them. They join from their phones, you choose when the gallery is revealed, and you export your favorites afterward.
What is hard right now
- We want the candid photos our guests take, but we don't want to chase everyone after the wedding.
- Our guests use different phones. We don't want joining the album to mean creating another account or installing an app.
- We want everyone enjoying the reception, with the gallery ready to browse afterward.
- We want to find our favorite guest photos without searching through several group chats.
Scenarios
Collect the table photos you miss while greeting guests
While you greet relatives across the room, your college friends take a group photo at their table. You will never see that moment live, but you can still end up with it.
Put the event QR code on your table cards. Guests scan it, or type the eight-character invite, and they are in. A guest on Android and a guest on iPhone can both join from a modern phone browser through the invite link. No account is required, and installing the app is optional.
The QR code invites mean you do not have to chase anyone for photos later. For a closer look at the follow-up problem, read how to collect wedding photos from guests without the follow-up chase.
Give the ceremony and reception their own photo moments
Your cousin photographs the ceremony arrivals. Your friends capture the reception dancing. Those are different parts of your day, and they do not have to share one pile of photos.
Use Moments to split your event into stages such as ceremony, reception and after-party. Each stage has its own QR code and its own reveal timing. Guests move between stages without switching apps.

Save the gallery reveal for the morning after
You want your guests to contribute during the reception and browse the gallery later. That way everyone stays in the moment.
Set the event end time, then choose how the gallery unlocks. With After the event, it opens when the event ends. With Additional delay, it opens a set number of hours after the event ends. During is also available if you want guests to see photos live as they are taken.
These reveal modes let you decide whether the surprise waits for the morning after. And because guests can join through the invite link in any modern phone browser, cross-platform joining keeps everyone included.
Find your sister's shots and export your favorites
Your sister caught a hug with your grandparents that you want to revisit. You do not need to scroll through everything to find it.
Narrow the album to her contributions with the photographer filter. Then export your favorites so you can keep the digital photos you love.
You can export your favorites once the gallery is open, with no digging through group chats.
