Sharing your wedding photos with your guests
The wedding is over and everybody has a few hundred shots. Here’s how to get them all in one place and hand them out in a single tap.
Sharing wedding photos is one of the most irritating parts of the whole thing. The usual approaches, and what goes wrong with each:
| Method | The problem |
|---|---|
| Sending them through a messaging app | Photos get compressed and lose quality, and you can’t send them to hundreds of people one at a time |
| A USB stick or memory card | Has to be handed over in person, so it never reaches anyone out of town |
| Sharing a cloud folder | Guests have to create an account, and everything gets lost in one enormous folder |
| Uploading to social media | It becomes public, and there are private shots you won’t want to post |
| Asking everyone to send you their photos | Nobody does, and the few who do send them scattered across a dozen chats |
How it works in Vowlia#
-
You put QR cards on the tables
You print the card that comes with your invitation and put it on the tables. More: the QR card.
-
Guests upload their own shots
They scan the card and upload their photos and videos from the page that opens — without installing anything.
-
You sort through them
You see everything on the gallery screen and remove what you don’t want.
-
You publish
Open the gallery with “Finish and publish”, and send your guests a notification if you want to.
Why this works better#
- The collecting happens on the day. No chasing people afterwards asking them to send their photos.
- It all lands in one place. One gallery instead of scattered messages from different people.
- You stay in control. You decide what gets published.
- No friction for your guests. No install, no account, no password.
When should you publish?#
Your guests are at their most curious the day after the wedding. Publishing the gallery within the first few days noticeably increases how many people open it. You can always edit the gallery again later to add new shots.
Don’t forget to download your photos
