OwnPix A simple phone plan for the day
| Moment | What to ask guests | Where to say it |
|---|---|---|
| Arrival | Put phones away before the ceremony starts | Welcome sign or program |
| Vows and ceremony | Enjoy the moment without taking photos | Officiant announcement |
| After the ceremony | Explain when photos are welcome again | Officiant or reception host |
| Reception | Invite guests to share their photos | Table cards and QR album |
Agree the boundaries with your officiant, photographer and venue. Some couples prefer no phones for the entire ceremony; others allow one photo at a designated moment.
Wording guests can follow
Welcome sign: “Please put your phones away during our ceremony and enjoy this moment with us.”
Officiant: “The couple would love to see your faces. Please keep phones and cameras away until the ceremony ends.”
Reception: “Now we would love to see the day through your eyes. Scan to share your photos.”
Keep the request consistent
Tell your photographer what you want and ask the venue about its rules. Afterward, share the album link with your intended group. OwnPix links can be forwarded, and anyone with the link can see the gallery once it opens.
