No need to wait for months to get your album with photos of your wedding. Encourage your guests to instantly share their own photos, with this little tip that will liven up the evening.
When you organize a wedding, you can’t wait until the day, relive this magical moment by viewing the photos and videos of the best day of our life. In general, this is the role of the photographer and videographer: to capture these precious moments to allow us to forever keep these romantic and festive memories. Often, we also tend to ask our guests to send us their photos the day after the wedding. But a free application allows you to bring them together to access them immediately after the ceremony, or even during the wedding evening. You just have to add a small element on the guest table, which will animate your event and delight the guests.
This is a QR code that you can create very simply, in a few clicks. Your entourage will only have to scan it to instantly share the photos that will appear on a single gallery, which everyone can at the same time consult. So beware of friends who have a sense of humor and who would be tempted to publish offbeat photos. So, how to set up a QR code to download your wedding photos?
Go to the Google Photos app and create a shared album. Add for this a title “Wedding of Stéphanie and Jérôme”, then click on the “Share” icon at the top right with the three buttons in the form of <. Then click on "Create a sharing link" which allows everyone with this link to see the photos of the album and also add them. You can check in "Options" that the "collaborating" part is well checked. Copy the URL which was then generated to generate a QR code.
To do this, go to a QR code generator site (QR Generator) and stick the link of your photo album, then click Create. Once the QR code has been generated, all you have to do is use it on your cards that you can have on the guest tables. Do not hesitate to use tools, such as the Canva site to build a nice card.
And the first thing you do when you see a QR code is to scan it. Your guests will therefore intuitively download the most beautiful shots they have taken during the day or the evening with their smartphone. A participatory, fun and of course free tip, which will not fail to animate your wedding evening while waiting to receive the official photos of the professional.
