# How Do Wedding Photo Upload Apps Work?

Understand guest uploads, access, and the limits worth checking before a wedding.

[**Create your event**](https://ownpix.app/#pricing)

Guests can share from their browser, with no app to download.

## The short answer

A wedding photo upload app gives guests a link or QR code to add photos to one event album. Check the guest steps, file limits, upload window, and gallery access before choosing.

## A simple plan

### **Create the album**

Set your event details and reveal preference.

### **Share the link**

Put the QR code on signs or send the link.

### **Test an upload**

Ask a guest to add a sample photo and video.

### **Collect and download**

Remind guests, then keep your own backup.

## What a guest needs to do

With OwnPix, a guest scans the event QR code or opens the link, chooses a photo or video, and uploads through their browser. No guest app is required. If the host sets a later reveal, explain that uploaded photos will not be visible until then.

## Questions to ask before choosing

| **Check** | **Why it matters** |
| --- | --- |
| Guest access | A browser link and an account invitation create different steps |
| Photo and video limits | A guest may need to choose a smaller file or shorter video |
| Upload window | Guests need enough time to contribute after the event |
| Gallery storage | The host needs time to download the collection |
| Sharing permissions | A forwarded link may give another person access |

OwnPix accepts photos and videos up to 30 MB each; videos must also be no longer than three minutes. Upload and storage windows depend on the plan.

## Help uploads succeed

Test on the venue connection before the celebration. If service is weak, send the link so guests can upload when they have a connection. Add a short instruction beside the code and send one reminder after the event.

## How OwnPix helps

OwnPix collects guest photos and videos in an event album. Guests scan your QR code or use the shared link without downloading an app.
