WeddingShare
Self-hosted photo sharing galleries for weddings and events
WeddingShare is a lightweight self-hosted web application for collecting and sharing photos before, during, and after a wedding. It lets you create one or more galleries with shareable links so guests can easily upload and view memories.
Key Features
- Create multiple galleries, each with its own shareable link
- Guest-friendly interface for viewing and uploading photos
- QR code generation for easy sharing on invites or table cards
- Optional review/moderation flow to approve uploads before they appear
- Multiple viewing modes, including presentation mode and slideshow mode
- Configurable allowed upload file types via environment settings
Use Cases
- Collect guest photos from a wedding day into a single shared gallery
- Run a live slideshow or projected gallery during the reception
- Share pre-wedding planning moments (venue visits, fittings, tastings) with friends and family
Limitations and Considerations
- Galleries are link-accessible; anyone with the link can view and upload, and the optional secret key is only a basic deterrent
- Some image formats may not be supported by browsers even if uploads are allowed (for example, HEIC)
WeddingShare is a practical option for couples who want a simple, private alternative to social platforms for wedding photo sharing. Its QR-based sharing and display modes make it especially suitable for in-person events.
