We had a ton of photos uploaded with the qr codes it was such an amazing idea. Money well spent
Things I liked: no app, no sign up, and the album filled up while our photographer was still packing his gear. 300 or so photos.
Do it. The screen kept everyone entertained.
Thanks to whoever thought of this. Saved me chasing people for for pictures. Only gripe, the cards got buried under the dinner plates so a lot of tables never noticed them.
you emailed so ok. tell people the screen thing has like a 2 minute delay, we defiantly expected instant.
four stars. the cards looked sharp on every table but my crowd mostly ignored them. people my age do not scan things.
Fair warning, the older half of the room isnt going to scan anything. Maybe a third of our guests sent pictures in. It rained all day too.
Hundreds of pictures in the album and I did not lift a finger.
thank you doesnt cover it, about 250 photos of my girl that we didnt pay extra for
Absolutely loved the screen going all night, people stopped eating to watch themselves. It ran a bit behind, photos showed up a while after they were taken, which confused some of the older folks. Still, the slideshow was the best thing in that room. Would tell anyone to add it.
they sent a survey so here, the little cards worked, people actually scanned them 👍
get it, we ended up with 500 something pictures, the photographer only gave us 200 and not for six weeks
Do it. We got back around 500 pictures and maybe 40 of them are ones I actually want printed.
Get the extra cards, they cost almost nothing next to everything else. We put one at every seat and had maybe a couple hundred pictures by the end of the night.
Thanks for the book, it came before Christmas like you said and my wife cried over it.
Great. The album basically filled itself up.
Do it. People stood around watching the the pictures come up all night, maybe 30 of them at a time.
Cheap, simple, no fuss with the QR code, loads of photos came in, we are happy with it.
Two things, our photographer ran late and was rude about it, and the picture link worked all night without me touching it. Thats my whole review.
My grandpa is 82 and scanned it without asking anyone for help, which honestly shocked me. He put up 3 pictures of the ceiling and one of his plate. Rating is high because of stuff like that 😄
thank god for this, i didnt have to beg anyone for photos
people watched the photos pop up on the screen for 3 hours straight
I owe you a good review. The reason this is five stars for me is the pictures from the parts of the night I missed. I was getting my dress bustled through most of the cocktail hour and I have all of it anyway, because people were sending pictures in the entire time. The groomsmen apparently took a lot of pictures of the cake before anybody cut it.
good: pictures all came through. bad: the printed cards did not arrive until after the wedding. we ran copies on the venue's office printer instead. one star is for that, not the photos.
If you are picking between this and a guest book, take this. The guest book got signed by almost nobody. The recordings we still have not listened to all of them.
honestly a huge relief. we woke up to like 200 pictures we we didn't have to chase anyone for
Loved that the photos stayed hidden till later 🙂
Good but know what you are getting. We got 45 photos, not the hundreds our photographer promised the thing would pull in.
You emailed me twice so fine, here you go. I LOVE the book. I have looked at it probably every week since we got it and my husband caught me crying at the kitchen table over a picture of his uncle asleep in a chair. I keep meaning to order a second one for his mom and I keep not doing it.
Put the link on the menus too. We got a hundred or so photos before dessert.
I want to say that the whole day I kept thinking I would have to remind people to send us their pictures, my daughter said not to worry about it and she was right, they just kept coming in on their own, I never asked a single person and that was the BEST part of the evening for me honestly.
Love that the photos download big.
order more cards than tables. we had 14 tables and used 20, people take them HOME apparently
Still going through the pictures a month later. So many 🙂
Better than the shared drive we used for my sister's wedding, files come down full size. Only 3 tables found the QR codes though, our venue is dark.
Their email reminded me, so here goes. It worked well enough. maybe half the room actually put photos in, the ones under 40 mostly. the rest of us took pictures and left them on our phones.
Best part was seeing them up on the screen during dinner. Thanks.
Got a bunch of photos out of it, though plenty of people never noticed the cards 🙂
guests were fine, no app, nothing to sign up for. the setup on my end was another story, i redid the qr code more than once before it pointed anywhere.
Got the follow up email so here I am. I almost skipped the printed cards to save money. They ended up on all 14 tables and they were the reason anyone scanned anything. My mom took one home.
My daughter lives across the country now so I have been going threw the pictures on my own, which is a slow way to do it. She calls and I tell her what I found. Anyway the point of writing this is the guest photos are the ones we keep coming back to, not the ones the photographer took. Grateful for that.
My advice if you are looking at this is to put the album on your wedding website too, not just at the reception. We had 90 people and a good chunk of them scanned the code before they even showed up. Five stars mostly because we ended up with photos from the getting ready part, which we were not expecting at all.
my grandma scanned it, which tells you something about how simple it is. she is 89 and has a flip phone, so honestly my cousin did it for her. anyway the album is good. i thought videos would go up the same as photos and they did not all make it, so check on that part.
For whoever asked in the thread, yeah we used it and it was cheap, cheapest line on our whole spreadsheet honestly. the pictures alone are worth the five stars, easy
Got loads of photos out of it. Put the QR codes somewhere people actually look. Ours got buried.
No regrets. The screen kept people entertained.
Worth doing. My daughter got pictures from people who never would have emailed them. The album filled up while the party was still going on.
I tell every engaged person I know about this now. The little printed signs came out really nice, nicer than I expected honestly for what they cost, and we put one at each of the 12 tables plus a bigger one by the guestbook. My aunt who does not own a smartphone still got someone to take a picture for her, that is how much people got into it. I had photos coming in during dinner and I kept checking them under the table during the toasts which I know is rude.
Put the code up by the bar, thats where everyone stands anyway. We didnt have to chase a single person for pictures after.
We booked this three weeks out and honestly forgot about it. Point the screen at the bar area, not the dance floor. Ours ran like 200 photos through dinner.
Our venue had a weird rule about no photos from the aisle so we were short on ceremony ones. anyway the full size files off yours covered us there, we got a couple keepers.
Lovely little cards, defiantly recommend.
Compared to the photo app my niece used last year this was nothing. 6 of us over 60 got it working and we dont usually manage that.
we did a destination thing in puerto rico and only about half our people could make the trip. the ones who stayed home kept asking for pictures and i had nothing to send them for a while. this fixed that, my mother in law in ohio was looking at the link before we even got back to the hotel.
thank you for the screen thing. four stars only because our older crowd mostly just watched it
they emailed asking how it went so heres the honest answer, it didnt work. we got maybe 4 pictures out of 130 guests and i still dont know why. scanned fine on my phone.
Put the link in the invites too. We got 40 before the day.
Every picture came through, thank you.
put the code on the menus too not just the tables. About 500 photos for us
Thanks for this, so glad nobody had to download an app. Wish the cards stood out more.
What we liked: the link, the photos coming in all evening, and not chasing anyone for them.
I told two other people about this already and both of them asked me about the cards on the tables so I will put it here, we ended up doing one at each place setting instead of one per table and that got a lot more people scanning, and the QR code read fine even in the dark, our tables just had candles and that was enough light for it.
my son in law put the little cards out while the caterers were still setting up, by the salad course people were already using them, so grateful
Big relief honestly. My wife was worried nobody would bother with it, they all did, the pictures were up before we even got back from the honeymoon.

Totally recommend!
honestly the best part was not having to do anything on the day. people just took photos and they showed up where they were supposed to. we checked in the morning and it was all sitting there. no chasing anyone down for pictures.
put the cards where people actually look. 90 guests, maybe half used the link
Someone in my daughter's group chat asked about this and I told them to get it, the pictures all came through.
My best man was convinced nobody would bother scanning anything. He checked at midnight and there were already so many pictures up. He showed everyone at our table.
here is the part nobody tells you. i set this up late at night the week of the wedding because it was the last item on a very long list, and i could not figure out how to get the thing pointed at the right album. i made a second one by accident. the empty one sat there all night and i only noticed the next week when i went looking for pictures that were not there. the actual product is fine. guests scanned, guests uploaded, no accounts, no app, no complaints from the older folks. but do it a month early and read the screen instead of clicking through it like i did.
If you are asking whether to get the book, get it, but the ordering part is not obvious. I had to go back through it more than once before the pictures were where I wanted them.
My uncle said he wasnt going to scan anything. He sent up a ton of pictures. Thats most of why the album gets 5 stars.
Everyone kept telling me this kind of thing would be a hassle for the older crowd at the wedding. My husband refuses to make an account for anything, ever, and he still got his pictures in without one.
you emailed asking so here you go. we looked at a shared cloud folder first and my sister in law swore by it, but you cant control who sees what and I didnt want 130 peoples pictures floating around with no settings on them. this one let us keep the album private and turn off downloads for anyone outside the wedding party, which is what sold me. also we got rained out of the ceremony spot and had to move everything inside 40 minutes before, so half the pictures are people under umbrellas. the settings held up fine through all of it. five stars.
Thank you for making this simple, we had 140 guests and the photos just kept arriving all through the reception and into the next day.
Get the screen. 5 stars just for the screen honestly.
Yes I would get the the cards, so many photos.
They asked, so: worth the money. Everyone got their pictures.
worked prefect, so many photos
Book it early!! We had a heat wave in July and I forgot half the things on my list, this one was already done and the album sat there waiting.
Editing my review down from four. I went back through the album and there is almost nothing from the reception. No service in the barn, so people scanned and the pictures never went anywhere. Some came in days later, most did not.
thanks so much, the album is full and my daughter cried looking at it
Things I am glad about: our photographer stayed an extra hour for free, my dress fit, and this thing cost 29 dollars and got us hundreds of pictures.
Our photographer's contract gave us the gallery in ten to twelve weeks, which felt like forever when everyone kept asking to see something. The pictures from guests were there the same night. We sent the link to my parents from the car. The photographer's gallery came in week nine, for what it is worth.
Hiding the photos until the next day was so smart.
such a relief honestly, the link just worked.
my grandpa does not own a smartphone and was very vocal about that at dinner, but my aunt held her phone up for him and somehow there are pictures from that whole table. get it
Worth it. Everyone actually used the link 🙂
Super easy, no app to get, people just went.
Better than the shared folder my brother made everyone join at his wedding, no sign up, nothing to install. But the cards ended up behind the the centerpieces and plenty of people never saw one. We got fewer pictures than we hoped. Food was great though.
Loved these little cards, they sat right next to the flowers and people actually picked them up and read them.
Would I do it again, yes. 130 people, no app.
Get the link out to people before the day, not on the day. We emailed it with the seating chart and had photos going up before the ceremony even started. Our photographer is great and all but she cannot be in the parking lot at 9am when the groomsmen are being idiots. Like 200 pictures!!
Since they emailed asking, my advice is put the code out during cocktail hour and not at dinner. That is when most of ours came in, by the time we cut the cake the album already had hundreds in it.
Been meaning to answer your email about this and I keep forgetting, so here, we had 92 people at the reception and by the end of the night there were over 400 pictures sitting there that we had nothing to do with, my husband still scrolls through them at night, so, five stars, nothing else to add really.
Really glad we set the album up. Ended up with photos from corners of the room we never saw.
thank you guys. we woke up to a whole page of photos from people we barely got to talk to that night. my aunt figured out the link before I did, which is SAYING something.
thank you for the screen thing. people stood there watching their own pictures come up all night
Want to say up front that the actual photo part of this is lovely and I am not sorry we used it, but please order the printed cards way earlier than you think you need to because ours did not show up until two days after the wedding and I spent the last week before refreshing a tracking page instead of doing anything useful, we were flying out of the country three days after the reception for our honeymoon and I had this whole plan about how the cards were going to look on the tables with the little frames my mom bought and none of that happened, in the end my husband printed the code on regular paper at his office the night before and we taped them into the frames which looked exactly as bad as it sounds, and people still used it, it says 388 in there right now which is more than I expected honestly and some of them are wonderful, there is one of my dad that I have looked at probably fifty times, so the thing itself works, I just would not count on the mail, three stars because I was genuinely stressed about it during a week when I did not need one more thing

We folded them as tent cards, placed on every table, near the bar, the sign in, and desserts. We have so many uploaded photos of friends and family and table shots that are amazing to see! Best $99 spent
