The Ultimate Guide to Wedding Photo Sharing with QR Codes

Weddings are full of fleeting moments: a quick laugh between friends, a child dancing freely, a stolen kiss after the ceremony. Capturing these candid memories used to mean placing disposable cameras on tables and hoping for the best. But in 2025, wedding photo sharing has evolved and QR codes are leading the charge.

PixelParty makes it easier than ever to collect every photo from your guests. With a simple QR code at your event, guests can snap, upload, and share memories in seconds no apps or sign-ups required.
