Practical wedding guide
Where to put your wedding photo QR code
The best QR location is within comfortable reach when a guest has time, light and their phone—not necessarily the largest sign.

The answer in a minute
Use three or four repeated placements with identical instructions and test every printed size from a seated distance.
Prioritise dwell time
Place codes on tables, at the bar queue and beside the guestbook. Doorways and dance floors create visibility without enough time to act.

Build your candid shot list
Turn the plan into a working guest album
Create the destination your QR code, prompts and reminders lead to.
Respect the room design
Ask the stationer to integrate a high-contrast code into existing pieces. It should feel intentional without being disguised by ornament.
Extend placement beyond paper
Add the same link to the wedding website, digital itinerary and next-day message so a missed scan never means a lost contribution.

Before you choose
What should we decide first?
Use three or four repeated placements with identical instructions and test every printed size from a seated distance. Whichever route you choose, try the full guest journey on a signed-out phone before you print a sign or share the link.
How should we test it before the wedding?
Start here: decide who owns this task. Then ask someone else to repeat the upload on both iPhone and Android, using the exact link your guests will receive.
