How to Create a QR Code for Wedding Photos
A QR code for wedding photos should do one thing well: get a guest from ‘I want to capture this’ to ‘it’s in the couple’s gallery’ in under ten seconds.
Upload QR vs live camera QR
Upload QRs open a page that asks guests to choose existing photos. Live camera QRs open a disposable-style camera so guests shoot in the moment. WedPOV uses the second model.
Setup in three steps
- Create your wedding and publish the invitation / RSVP page.
- Unlock the guest camera and download your unique QR.
- Print table cards and welcome signs — place them where guests naturally pause.
Placement that actually works
- One large welcome sign at the entrance
- A card on every reception table
- A spare at the bar and guestbook
