Your wedding code

For the photos, paste the link to your album or upload folder. Next to it, the way to the venue and the Wi-Fi for your guests are ready too.

Higher levels survive scratches and logos but make the pattern denser.

The light border is part of the code. Below 4 modules you are asking for trouble.

How it works

Three steps to your photos

  1. Set up a place for the photos

    A shared album or a folder guests may upload to, with a service you already use. From there, copy the link for sharing.

  2. Design the code

    Paste the link, choose the frame with “Share your photos” and match the colours to your invitations and table cards. For print, download it as PDF or SVG.

  3. Test with someone else’s phone

    Scan it, upload a test picture and check that it arrives. Do this on a phone where you are not signed in. Only then do the table cards go to print.

Uses

Where the code helps at the wedding

Table cards and menu cards

A small code at every place. Anyone who takes a lovely picture between two courses uploads it straight away, before it gets lost on their phone.

Sign at the entrance

A sign next to the guest book or the photo booth: “Share your photos with us”. Printed large enough, guests scan it as they walk past.

Invitation and save-the-date card

A location code opens the maps app with the venue as the destination, so nobody has to type in the address. A link code leads to the wedding website with the schedule and the RSVP.

Wi-Fi in the hall

In the countryside, mobile reception is often weak. If the venue offers Wi-Fi for guests, a Wi-Fi code at the entrance helps, and the photos upload faster.

Thank-you card

After the celebration, the link to the finished album goes on the thank-you card. That way, guests who did not take any pictures themselves get to see them too.

Hen and stag parties

The same on a smaller scale: a folder for the evening’s pictures, a code on the drinks sign or in the group chat.

Where the code leads

Upload folder, album or both

The code only contains a link. Where it leads is up to you, and that is the most important decision: it sets what guests see and what they have to do for it.

Upload folder
Guests upload and do not see the others’ pictures. Dropbox calls this a file request, Nextcloud an upload-only share link (“file drop”). Either way, guests need no account of their own, and uploading works in the browser.
Shared album
Everyone sees every picture and can add their own, for example in a shared album in Google Photos. Whether guests have to be signed in for this depends on the service and your settings.
One code, one destination
A code always leads to exactly one destination. For photos, directions and Wi-Fi you need three codes, or you link to a wedding website that has everything on it.
No detour
The link sits in the pattern itself and does not go through our server. The code works as long as your album or folder exists, even years after the celebration.

Anyone who scans the code, or only has a photo of the table card, gets the link. For private pictures, an upload folder is therefore the more cautious choice: guests see nothing, and you share the finished album later with the people you choose. Ask your guests before you show pictures of them publicly.

In practice

Making sure the photos arrive

Check the storage space

A hundred guests with ten photos each in full resolution quickly add up to several gigabytes, and many times that with videos. Check beforehand that there is enough storage. A full folder accepts nothing more, and you only notice after the celebration.

Large enough for the table card

At the table, people scan from about 30 cm. A typical upload link needs about 4 cm side length for that, a good 5 cm with a logo. A sign scanned from one metre away should be 13 cm or more.

Colours with contrast

Gold on cream looks elegant but scans poorly: the modules need clear contrast with the background. Dark green, midnight blue or burgundy on light paper work well. The preview warns you if the contrast is not enough.

Add a line of text

Write under the code what happens, such as “Scan and share your photos with us”. If no account is needed, feel free to say so. People who know what to expect are more likely to scan, especially older relatives.

Questions about the wedding code

How large for table cards and signs?

The size calculator in the guide gives the right side length for every reading distance, from the table card to the sign at the entrance.

To the size calculator
Do guests need an app to upload photos?

The phone’s camera is enough for scanning. Whether guests need an app or an account to upload depends on where the link leads. With a Dropbox file request or a Nextcloud upload-only link, it works in the browser, without an account of their own.

Which service is good for wedding photos?

One you already use and that has enough free storage. For collecting photos without an account for guests, a Dropbox file request or an upload-only link in Nextcloud works well. If everyone should see every picture, use a shared album, for example in Google Photos.

Can I put photos, directions and Wi-Fi in one code?

No, a code leads to exactly one destination. You make three codes; the generator above has Link, Address and Wi-Fi side by side for this. Or you link to a wedding website that has everything on it.

How large does the code on the table card need to be?

For a typical upload link read from 30 cm away, about 4 cm side length, a good 5 cm with a logo, each plus a light border all around. The shorter the link, the coarser the pattern and the smaller the code can be.

Does the wedding code expire after the celebration?

No. The code is static and does not depend on our server. It works as long as your album or folder exists. So guests can still find the pictures years later via the thank-you card.

Can strangers see our photos with the code?

Anyone who scans the code or has a photo of it gets the link. With an upload folder there is nothing to see there, people can only upload. With a shared album, anyone with the link sees every picture. Choose according to how private the photos should stay.

How do guests find the venue with the code?

With a location code on the invitation: it opens the maps app with the venue as the destination. In the generator above it is called “Address”. With coordinates it also finds an estate or a cabin without a house number.
