The wedding photo sharing app your guests never have to download.
Every guest’s photos of your wedding day, in one gallery by morning. They scan a little card on the table and add theirs from the phone already in their hand — no app, no sign-ups, nothing for you to chase afterwards.
The best photo of your wedding is on somebody else’s phone.
Your photographer is brilliant, and your photographer is one person. Everything they weren’t standing next to ends up scattered across two hundred camera rolls — and the ways people try to get it back all leak. Group chats compress photos into soup. A hashtag dies the moment nobody’s checking it. And nobody wants to spend their first married month messaging Aunt Julie about photos she’s definitely already taken.
So collecting wedding photos from guests has to happen on the day, while everyone is still in the room — in one tap, with nothing to install.
What usually happens
- “I’ll AirDrop them to you!” (they won’t)
- A group chat that ruins the quality
- A hashtag three people remembered
- Six weeks of polite reminders
The getting-ready room
Your sister crying at the dress, the dads pacing in the corridor, someone’s toddler in the veil — half of it shot on phones by people who’ll never think to send it to you.
While you’re off being photographed
You’re having portraits taken in a field somewhere while a hundred of your favourite people meet each other for the first time. That hour exists only on their phones.
The photo of the whole night
Blurry, badly lit, taken by your cousin at midnight — and it’s the one you’ll print. Group chats squash it to mush, and mostly it never leaves their camera roll at all.
The exit, from six angles
Sparklers, confetti, the car. Everybody filmed it, nobody agreed who was sending what, and by Tuesday the thread has moved on.
Put together, everything guests add across the day amounts to a digital wedding guestbook — hundreds of photos instead of forty signatures, and nobody had to queue for a pen.
Three things, spread over three months.
Put in your two names and a colour that matches the day. You get a link and a printable QR card back in about a minute — long before anything else on the list is done.
One card per table, one at the bar, one by the welcome sign. Guests scan with the camera they already have and add photos in three taps. No app, no account, no queue at the door.
Wake up to the getting-ready room, the speeches, the dance floor at 1am — every angle of the day in one gallery, in full quality, yours to download and keep.
One little card per table does the whole job.
Your gallery comes with its own card — download it, drop it into your table numbers or order of service, and print. Guests point a camera at it and they’re uploading seconds later — no app store, no wifi password, no fuss.
This one is real: point your phone at it and you’ll land in our live demo gallery.
Want to design the card yourself? Our free wedding QR sign maker turns any gallery link into a printable table card or welcome sign — no account needed.
your photos
Want the card itself explained — how to make a QR code for wedding photos, what size to print it, and where to put it on the day? That page has a real, scannable one on it.
Not sure what a wedding gallery actually looks like? Go and poke around a real one the way a guest would — that’s the whole product, with no sign-up wall in front of it. When you’re ready, the price list is three lines long.
Open a real wedding gallery
your photos
Put the reception up on the big screen.
Cast the gallery to the venue’s TV or projector and the wedding plays itself back while it’s still happening. A photo taken during the first dance is on the wall before the song ends — and seeing it there is what makes the next fifty people upload.
You shouldn’t be the only one holding this.
One of you will end up being the person who downloads everything. Invite the other — plus your maid of honour, your best man, or your mum — and they can sort, tidy and download right alongside you. Unlimited collaborators, free on every plan, including the free one.
Where your wedding photos actually go.
You’re about to ask two hundred people to put photos of your wedding on a website they have never heard of. That deserves a straight answer rather than a badge, so here’s ours — including the part we can’t promise.
There’s no guest sign-in — the QR card is the key, which is exactly why it works for two hundred people at once. Everyone you hand it to can open the gallery, and we can’t tell one guest from another. One switch takes the whole thing off the web again.
The link that opens your gallery is the same one that uploads to it — we don’t check who someone is before their photo lands. You can close uploads whenever you like, and Expert holds every photo in an approval queue until you say yes.
Every gallery page asks search engines to skip it, and our robots file blocks the path outright. WhatsApp still draws its preview card when someone shares the link — that’s a preview being fetched, not a page being indexed.
We don’t train anything on your wedding photos, sell them, advertise against them, or use them as examples on this site. Nothing in PhotoCheese looks at the contents of an image. They’re stored, and they’re shown to your gallery.
Remove a photo and the file itself is erased from storage, not just hidden from the page. Guests can pull their own uploads back the same way without asking you — the one that matters at 2am, after the third round of shots.
Uploads close first, then the gallery: a week on Free, three months on Pro, a year on Expert. We email you 15, 7 and 1 days before the end — one tap downloads the whole wedding while it’s there.
A link is a link. If a guest photographs your QR card and posts it, or forwards the gallery link into a group chat, whoever ends up with it is in — and we have no way to tell them apart from someone on your seating plan. There are no passwords on galleries today. So put your cards on the tables rather than on Instagram, and if you want a closer eye on what appears, the approval queue on Expert is the tool for it.
Two smaller things we’d rather you heard from us. Photos arrive exactly as the phone took them, so one can still carry the spot it was taken in — fine at the venue, worth knowing if a guest uploads from their kitchen the next morning. We’re working on stripping that out. And each photo has its own direct file link: if someone saves it, that link keeps working until the file is deleted.

Wedding questions, answered.
No — and there’s nothing to sign up for either. A guest points their camera at the QR card on the table, taps the banner that pops up, and your gallery opens in the browser they already have. Take a photo or pick a few from the camera roll, and they’re uploaded. Three taps, no keyboard, no account. Grandma included, promise.
Give them somewhere obvious to put them. A QR card on every table, one at the bar, one by the welcome sign — guests scan the one nearest their drink and upload straight from the phone in their hand. Everything lands in the same gallery, which you can watch filling up from your own phone while it happens.
Make it something people trip over rather than something they have to remember. A card at eye level on each table beats a hashtag printed once on the order of service, because nobody re-reads the order of service. Then have whoever’s holding the microphone mention it once during the speeches — that’s reliably the moment uploads spike.
You can start free: 100 uploads and a gallery that lasts a week. Pro is $49 paid once — 500 uploads, high-quality files, gallery for three months, and the plan most weddings land on. Expert is $99 paid once — unlimited uploads, an approval queue, gallery for a year. One payment per wedding, and no subscription left running afterwards.
This is the question we get asked most, and yes. There’s no app to find, no password to invent, no email to confirm. Point the phone camera at the card, tap once, and the upload button is the biggest thing on the screen. If someone’s really stuck, a bridesmaid can upload for them in about ten seconds — anyone can add to the gallery.
Most guests are on mobile data anyway, and uploads keep going in the background while they carry on with their night. If the signal drops mid-upload, the queue waits and resumes when it comes back rather than starting over. Barns and cellars are the classic problem spots, so it’s worth telling guests their photos will finish sending on the drive home.
Yes. Anyone with the link can add to the gallery, so the simplest route is to send it to them. If you’d rather they could also sort and download, invite them as a collaborator — that’s free and unlimited on every plan. It’s a lovely way to drop a handful of sneak peeks in while the proper edit takes its six weeks.
Honestly: it’s unlisted, not locked. Your gallery is never indexed by Google and isn’t listed anywhere on our site, and we do nothing with your photos — no training, no selling, no adverts. But there are no passwords on galleries today, so anyone holding the link can open it and add to it, and we can’t tell one guest from another. Put your QR codes where your guests are rather than where the internet is, and if you want a closer eye on what lands, Expert lets you approve every photo first.
Two clocks run. Uploads close first — two days after the wedding on Free, thirty on Pro, ninety on Expert — so nothing trickles in months later. Then the gallery itself reaches the end of its window: a week on Free, three months on Pro, a year on Expert. We email you 15 days, 7 days and 1 day before that, and one tap downloads the whole wedding on Pro and Expert. Files are wiped a month after the gallery comes down.
Yes, and most people do. One gallery across the whole weekend keeps the rehearsal dinner, the wedding and the morning-after brunch in the same place, which is usually how you’ll want to look back at it. If you’d rather keep them apart — the hen do, say — make a second gallery with its own QR card.
Celebration still months away? Leave your date and we’ll remind you a week before.
PhotoCheese is made by Marina and Ivan, two people who started it after a friend’s wedding went missing in a group chat. It works just as well for every other kind of celebration. Anything we haven’t answered here, ask us — a real person replies.
