weddingHow Guestpix, WedUploader, Wedibox, Eventoly, Kululu, WedShoots, POV and Pix Wedding bill, what each one costs for a 150-guest wedding, and who wins the pairs couples search for, each checked September 2026 on the vendor's own page. If you want one pick instead of a pricing breakdown, read our overall pick for guests.
Charge once: Pix Wedding ($49 to $89), Guestpix (from $49), Wedibox ($29 to $79), Eventoly ($49 to $89) and WedUploader Limitless ($39). No subscription on any of them.
Free: WedUploader Basic into your own Drive, WedShoots if guests install its app, POV up to 10 guests, Wedibox for 50 guest uploads, Pix Wedding for 20.
Recurring: Picaggo from $47.99 a year, or Google One storage once a shared Google Photos album outgrows the free 15GB.
Ten apps on six rows of fine print: how each one bills, what it costs at 150 guests, the free tier, what a guest has to install, the live slideshow, and how long uploads and storage last. We priced it at 150 because the average US wedding had 117 guests in 2025 (The Knot 2026 Real Weddings Study), and a price that moves per guest adds up fast at that size.
Pix Wedding is our product. It is listed first so you can see our facts next to everyone else's; every other row comes from the vendor's own page.

The pairs couples type into Google, each with a one-line verdict, the facts behind it, and who should pick which side.
WedUploader if the files should live in your own Drive, Guestpix for a hosted gallery.
Neither asks guests to install an app. WedUploader Basic is free and drops every upload at original quality into your own Google Drive; Limitless is $39 once and adds the real-time slideshow wall and guest voicemails. Guestpix Classic is $49 once, hosts the gallery for 12 months with a 3-month upload window, and adds a written and video guestbook.
POV for ten guests or fewer, Guestpix for a full guest list.
POV is free up to 10 guests, then prices in steps (25, 50, 100, 175, 250 and 251+ guests). iPhone guests join through an App Clip and photos appear on a delay, like a disposable camera. Guestpix charges one flat price from $49 whatever the headcount, and guests upload in the phone browser from a QR code.
Kululu if the photo wall is the point, Guestpix if you want the price up front.
Kululu puts a live photo wall on every plan and sizes plans by guest count: Free for about 10 to 20 guests, Plus for up to 100 guests and no more than 500 photos, Pro for 150 plus. Its pricing page does not print the prices. Guestpix shows its one-time plans and caps the free option at a 50-photo demo. Both run in the browser.
Both start free. The difference is the app.
WedShoots costs nothing, but every guest installs the WedShoots app and types your album code, and some will not bother. WedUploader Basic is also free, works from a link or QR with no guest login, and saves into your Drive instead of a hosted album. WedShoots lets you download the whole album in full resolution.
Wedibox for a usable free tier and a longer window, Guestpix for the video guestbook.
Wedibox gives 50 guest uploads free with no card. Its $49 Wedding plan has a 6-month upload window, 1 year of storage, a live slideshow, an original-quality ZIP and a wedding website; All-In-One is $79 for 1 year and 2 years. A $29 Embed plan puts the gallery inside your own site. Guestpix Classic is also $49, with a 3-month upload window and a written and video guestbook.
Pix to test free with real guests, Guestpix for the video guestbook.
Both start at $49 one-time and both run in the phone browser. Pix gives you 20 real guest uploads free with no card, a working tier and not a demo; Guestpix offers a 50-photo demo with a 30-day window. Pix adds film roll mode on every paid plan and a private photographer upload link on Standard; Guestpix adds a written and video guestbook on Classic.

What the headline price on a vendor page leaves out, with the vendors on this page as the examples.
Guestpix calls its free option a demo: 50 photos over a 30-day window. Wedibox gives 50 guest uploads, Pix 20, Eventoly a trial with limits it does not list. Read the number on the tier you would run on the day.
The upload window and the storage window end on different dates. Guestpix Classic takes uploads for 3 months and hosts for 12; Pix Starter takes uploads for 3 months and stores for 6.
WedUploader lists Limitless in more than a dozen currencies ($39, £30, €40), and several vendors switch currency by location. Check the figure at checkout, not in a review.
WedUploader sells a seating chart as an add-on, and only after the premium package is bought. Price the add-on and the package together.
POV prices in steps of 10, 25, 50, 100, 175 and 250 guests, so 150 guests lands in the 175 step. Kululu sizes Plus for up to 100 guests and 500 photos.
Guestpix lists a 14-day money-back guarantee. Eventoly refunds if you do not use it for your event. Pix refunds in full if no guest uploads a photo, asked within 30 days after the wedding.
A How-To-Heroes walkthrough of photo sharing apps for weddings and parties. Watch it with the table open and check each app for three things: does a guest download anything, sign in to anything, or pay per head.

Each vendor stores your photos differently, so the first step depends on where you are leaving from.
Every upload already sits in your Google Drive folder. Leave it there and point the new QR code at the new album.
Classic hosts for 12 months from the event date and the free demo takes uploads for 30 days. Save the gallery before either runs out.
WedShoots lets you download the entire album with photos and videos in full resolution. Do it before you stop sending guests there.
Replace the old album link or QR on your wedding website and RSVP confirmation, and send one short note to anyone who saved the old link.
If table cards are printed, reprint the QR sticker alone. The free QR sticker designer handles a quick reprint.
Scan the new QR on both, upload a photo and a video, and check both appear in the gallery.
Starter $49, Standard $59 with the live slideshow, Pro $89 with AI selfie search. One-time, never a subscription.
Each vendor on this page has its own head-to-head or alternatives page with the full detail.
Still researching? Here is how Pix Wedding stacks up against the other major wedding photo sharing platforms.
Every competitor cell on this page was re-checked on the vendor's own pricing or product page (and the App Store listing for POV) on September 24, 2026. Where a vendor page did not state a limit, the cell says so instead of guessing. Pix Wedding figures come from its live pricing plans.
Vendors change prices and limits without notice, and several show prices in local currency based on where you are. WedUploader lists Limitless in more than a dozen currencies; the $39 figure is its USD price. Confirm on the vendor page before you buy.
A wedding is one day. Most dedicated apps on this page charge once per event, which fits that shape. Recurring bills show up with general photo tools, such as Picaggo's yearly plans or extra Google One storage once a shared Google Photos album outgrows the free 15GB.
The second split is guest friction. Browser upload from a QR code needs no app and no account; WedShoots and POV ask guests to install something, and Google Photos asks for a Google account. The fewer steps, the more guests take part.
Pix Wedding is not the cheapest one-time option (WedUploader Limitless is $39 and Wedibox Embed is $29) and it does not put a slideshow in its entry plan (Eventoly and Wedibox do). Its case is the mix: a real free tier of 20 guest uploads, browser upload with no guest account, film roll mode on every paid plan, a private photographer upload link and photo missions on Standard, and AI selfie search on Pro, all for one payment. If none of those matter to you, another app on this page may fit better.

Straight answers to the questions people ask most about this topic.
Neither makes guests install an app. WedUploader Basic is free and saves every photo and video in original quality to your own Google Drive, so nothing expires but your Drive quota is the ceiling; Limitless is $39 once and adds the slideshow wall and voicemails. Guestpix Classic is $49 once, hosts the gallery for you (3 months of uploads, 12 months of hosting) and adds a written and video guestbook. Choose WedUploader if you already pay for Google storage, Guestpix if you want a hosted gallery. Checked September 2026.
Its Basic plan is free: unlimited photo and video uploads at original quality, unlimited guests, and a link, QR code and sign templates for each album, all saved into your Google Drive. Limitless is a one-time payment ($39 in USD, shown in local currency elsewhere) that adds the real-time slideshow wall, guest voicemails and the premium QR templates. A seating chart is a separate add-on you can only buy after Limitless.
Guestpix itself only offers a 50-photo demo with a 30-day upload window. For a free start, WedUploader Basic saves unlimited uploads into your Drive, Wedibox gives 50 guest uploads, Pix Wedding gives 20 real guest uploads with no card, WedShoots is free if guests install its app, and POV is free up to 10 guests. For a hosted gallery at a full wedding, most couples still end up on a one-time plan.
Both charge $49 once for the main wedding plan and both run in the phone browser. Wedibox has a free tier of 50 guest uploads, a 6-month upload window and 1 year of storage on its Wedding plan, a live slideshow, an original-quality ZIP and a wedding website, plus a $29 Embed plan for your own site. Guestpix Classic has a 3-month upload window, 12 months of hosting and a written and video guestbook, and its free option is a 50-photo demo.
WedShoots is free. Its UK page says guests download the WedShoots app and add photos and videos with your album code, and you can download the whole album in full resolution. The catch is the app: every guest installs it first, and its UK page does not state a slideshow or a storage period, so confirm those before the day.
POV is free up to 10 guests and then priced in guest-count steps, with App Store purchases from $4.99 to $89.99. For 100 guests or more, a flat one-time price is easier to budget: Pix Wedding ($49 to $89), Guestpix (from $49), Wedibox ($49 Wedding plan), Eventoly ($49 to $89) or WedUploader ($0 Basic, $39 Limitless), all with browser uploads. Pix Wedding also has film roll mode for the same hidden-until-reveal feel.
Kululu leads with a live photo wall on every plan and sizes its plans by guest count: Free for about 10 to 20 guests, Plus for up to 100 guests and no more than 500 photos, Pro for 150 plus. Its pricing page does not print prices. Guestpix shows one-time prices from $49, includes a slideshow and a video guestbook, and limits its free option to a 50-photo demo. Both work in the phone browser.
Pix Wedding ($49 to $89), Guestpix (from $49), Wedibox ($29 to $79), Eventoly ($49 to $89) and WedUploader Limitless ($39) all charge once per event. Picaggo is the yearly one, free for 2GB and $47.99 a year for 10GB. Google Photos is free until your 15GB fills, then it becomes a Google One storage plan. POV and Kululu price by guest count rather than by year.
Flat one-time prices do not move with headcount: Pix Wedding $49 (or $59 for the slideshow), Guestpix $49, Wedibox $49, Eventoly $49, WedUploader $0 on Basic or $39 for Limitless. WedShoots stays $0 if guests install the app. POV puts 150 guests in its 175-guest step, and Kululu suggests its Pro plan for 150 plus. Prices checked September 2026 on each vendor page.
Use a private album opened by a QR code or link. Pix Wedding, Guestpix, Wedibox, Eventoly and Kululu host the photos in a gallery only people with your code or link can open, and guests upload from the phone browser with no account. WhatsApp compresses images and scatters them across chats, and a shared Drive folder asks guests to sign in or exposes the folder link.
