Practical wedding guide
Wedding photo permission and consent guide
A private celebration does not remove people’s preferences about where identifiable images appear afterwards.
The short answer
Collect privately, publish selectively and ask when an image features children, vulnerability or someone who avoids social media.
Make opting out ordinary
Give guests a discreet way to say they do not want public images. Do not require them to explain personal or safety reasons.
Separate supplier permissions
Photographers, venues and performers may have contractual rules around portfolio use and credit. Guest possession of a file does not settle those rights.
When stakes are high, get legal advice
Privacy and image-rights law varies by location. This guide supports considerate behaviour but is not a substitute for jurisdiction-specific advice.

No. With The Wedding Pics, guests scan a QR code or open a private link and upload from the browser. They do not create an account.
Can the couple review photos before guests see them?
Yes. Gallery visibility and moderation are controlled by the couple, so new uploads can be reviewed before they appear publicly or in a slideshow.
Can we download the original files?
Yes. Couples can download individual originals or prepare a whole-album ZIP export during the storage period included with their plan.
One QR code. Every guest perspective.
