    They can use a hashtag ... you can see all the pictures that were taken using your custom hashtag .

    Have them use a shared hashtag or link/Facebook album etc. to upload their photos?


    Maybe have a few cute framed reminders on tables/around your venue?

    You can make an account specifically for that purpose. And if you don’t want to keep it after you’ve saved the pictures they’ve taken then delete it.

    If you have a smaller group of relatively-media-savvy people coming to the wedding, this is a good option. However, in all honesty, most people won't download a whole other app to upload pictures they take. Using & widely-denoting your hashtag (and just generally following all your friends on social media) is the best way to collect photos.

    “Wedding Wire Guest” app
    I haven’t used it but I heard of it. Look into it and see if that’s something you’d like to use.

    I would say hashtag on Instagram works, but because I feel like not all the guests would like to upload many photos onto their profile of my wedding this will not be the best. I will set up a Google Drive Folder where anyone from the wedding can share any (or actually all of them lol) photos. In that case nobody has to set up an account or focus on using a hashtag, etc and I will see many photos that are not professional, but probably better for the memories. Smiley smile

    Hello! Sorry I'm slow to respond. I'm working midnight shift now. Anyway, I created a group on Facebook and invited all of my guests to join. I added an explanation for the group, so hopefully it works!
