Guide
Wedding photo QR code: how it works, and how to make an Album.
hazel is the photo-sharing web app behind the code, and the QR signs come free with it. Free for small weddings, five minutes to set up, nothing for your guests to download. Updated 19 October 2026.
The short answer
A wedding photo QR code is a code your guests scan with their phone camera. It opens a page where they add their photos. With hazel, that page is your wedding's own: guests give a first name and email, choose photos from their camera roll or take one there and then, see each photo before it uploads, and you get every photo and video in one Album, with full-quality downloads. Nothing to download. For the day itself, hazel makes your signs and table cards too: 20 designs with your QR code, names and date already on, free and ready to print in 2 minutes.

What your guests see.
The code opens your wedding's page in their phone's browser. No account, no download. They type a first name and an email, so the Album can be sent to them afterwards. Then they add photos from their camera roll, five or fifty at a time, or take one there and then, and see every one before it goes.
Where to put the code.
- On every table, small, next to the menu. People scan while they wait for the starter.
- One sign at the bar and one by the guestbook, A5 is plenty. The bar is where phones come out.
- A big welcome sign at the entrance, A2 or A1 on an easel, so everyone sees it as they arrive. hazel makes every size, from place cards and table tents to A1.
- Not on the invitation. It's months too early; people forget. The day itself is the moment.
- Ask whoever does the speeches to mention it once. “The QR code on your table: add your photos before you leave.” That line doubles what comes in.
- Keep uploads open for a few days after. Most people add photos the next morning. You choose when uploads close when you set up the event, and you can extend it up to a week after.

Questions
What is hazel?
A photo-sharing web app for your event. You make your wedding on hazel, your guests scan its QR code or tap the link, and every photo they take lands in one Album that you choose from and share. No app for anyone to download. The QR signs and table cards come free with it.
How much is a QR code for wedding photos?
The QR code itself costs nothing: it's made the moment you create your event. What you pay for is the Album behind it, priced by how many guests you have: free for up to 6 guests, $4.49 for up to 20, $12.99 for up to 40, $19.99 for up to 60, $32.99 for up to 100 and $64.99 for up to 200. One payment per wedding, no subscription, and the signs and table cards are free.
Is there a free wedding QR code for photos?
Yes. A wedding with up to 6 guests is free on hazel, with the same QR code, signs, guest review and Album as the paid sizes. Larger weddings pay once, from $4.49.
Do my guests need an app?
No. The code opens a page in their phone's browser. Nothing to download, no account to make.
Does the QR code expire?
It works as long as uploads are open. You choose when that is when you set up the event, and you can extend it up to a week after your event.
Can guests add photos after the wedding?
Yes, until uploads close. The closing time is yours to set when you create the event, and to move later. Most photos arrive the next morning, when people are looking through their camera roll.
Can guests upload from their camera roll?
Yes. From the camera roll, several at a time, or a photo taken there and then. Either way they see each one before it uploads.
Is there a ready-made QR code sign?
Yes, free with every event. Pick from 20 designs and your QR code, names and date go on for you, in every size from a place card to an A1 welcome sign, plus table tents. See them at hazel.camera/wedding-qr-code-signs.
What if someone can't scan a QR code?
Send them the link instead. It's the same page: by WhatsApp, by text, or by email from hazel.
Are the photos full size?
Yes. The photo that arrives is the one the guest's phone took, at the size it took it, whether from the camera roll or taken on the spot.
