No more waiting months to get your wedding photo album. Encourage your guests to instantly share their own photos with this little trick that will liven up the evening.
When you organize a wedding, you can’t wait for the end of the day, to relive this magical moment by viewing the photos and videos of the most beautiful day of your life. In general, this is the role of the photographer and videographer: to capture these precious moments to allow us to keep these romantic and festive memories forever. 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 group them all together to access them immediately after the ceremony, or even during the wedding evening. All you need to do is add a small element on the guest table, which will liven up your event and delight the guests.
This is a QR Code that you can create very simply, in just a few clicks. Your friends and family will just have to scan it to instantly share the photos that will be displayed in a single gallery, which everyone can view at the same time. So beware of friends who have a sense of humor and who would be tempted to publish offbeat photos. So, how do you set up a QR code to download your wedding photos?
Go to the Google Photos app and create a shared album. To do this, add a title “Wedding of Stephanie and Jerome”, then click on the “share” icon at the top right with the three buttons in the shape of <. Then click on "create a sharing link" which allows everyone with this link to see the photos in the album and also add some. You can check in "options" that the "collaborate" part is checked. Copy the URL that was then generated to generate a QR Code.
To do this, go to a QR Code generator site and paste the link to your photo album, then click on create. Once the QR Code is generated, all you have to do is use it on your cards that you can place on the guests’ tables. Don’t hesitate to use tools, such as the Canva site, to create a pretty card.
And the first thing you do when you see a QR Code is to scan it. Your guests will intuitively download the most beautiful photos they took during the day or evening with their smartphone. A participatory, fun and of course free tip, which will not fail to liven up your wedding evening while waiting to receive the official photos from the professional.
