WeddingShare

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.
