Wedding photo guides
While you wait for your wedding gallery, bring the first photos together
After the wedding, you may want to see photos of the day straight away. Gather previews from your photographer and moments captured by friends to enjoy while you wait for the full gallery.
Photos you can enjoy first
Your photographer’s preview photos
Ask your booked photographer whether you can receive a few highlights early. Agree on the date, photo count and any extra fee so you know when to expect them.
Phone photos from friends and family
Ask for laughter while getting ready or a view from the guest seats. Mention original-file transfer settings when using messages, so the photos are useful for printing or organizing later.
Additional mobile photography
If you want photos and short videos on the day, you can explore separate coverage. First compare your existing booking’s coverage and delivery schedule with the extra moments you want to capture.
An album filled by your guests
Share a photo upload link or QR code on invitations and tables. With Snap Wedding, guests upload photos and videos without an account or app, and the couple reviews them in one album.
Prepare a destination before the wedding
Before the wedding: agree on timing and a destination
Ask about photographer previews and prepare a link for guest photos. If you use a QR code album, complete a test upload from another phone before printing your signs.
On the day: share a short, unobtrusive invitation
Place a brief note and QR code on tables or other venue-approved materials. Agree with your emcee on a suitable announcement time. Guests can upload at the venue or use the same link after going home.
After the wedding: thank people and invite them to share
Say thank you in your usual group chat or messages, then invite people to upload any photos whenever they have time. Check the files you receive and download originals before the storage deadline.
Keep photo requests short and friendly
Tell friends you would love to see the day through their eyes. Give them one place to send photos so they do not have to work out where to share.
- Keep it light: “If you took any photos, send them whenever you have time.”
- Mention that you would love photos of parents and friends too, so you can enjoy moments beyond your own view.
- Show photos to the people pictured before sharing them publicly on social media.
Enjoy the collection with family and keep the originals
Choose photos of parents and friends to look through together. The family-sharing guide explains album invitations and how to download and keep a separate copy of your originals.
