weddingOne QR code on the tables, and every guest photo from your Canadian wedding lands in one private album. Guests scan with the phone camera and upload from the browser, no app and no account. Plans are one-time and shown in Canadian dollars.
Start Your Free Album20 guest uploads free, no card needed
A wedding QR code for photos costs nothing to try in Canada: the free plan takes 20 guest uploads and asks for no card. For the whole guest list, one payment in Canadian dollars opens the album to every guest, with no cap on photos or videos and every file kept in original quality, with no subscription and no renewal. On the guest side it is a camera scan and a browser tab. No app, no account, no password.
What changes at a Canadian wedding is the detail around it: prices in CAD, a sign that speaks English and French, lake and mountain venues where signal comes and goes, and albums that follow the party across a whole weekend. The sections below take them one at a time.
No card needed to set up the album and QR code.
One-time, no subscription. Canadian visitors see and pay CAD.
Counted from the wedding date, depending on the plan.

Most Canadian couples weigh the same four ways of collecting guest photos. Here is what each one asks of your guests and where it falls short.
Guests scan one QR code and upload original-quality photos and videos from the browser, with no app and no account. One album, one ZIP, and plans shown in CAD from C$67 once.
| Method | What guests need | All in one place? | The catch | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Pix Wedding QR albumOur pick | The camera app and a browser tab. No download, no account. | Yes, one album with a ZIP download | Guests need signal or wifi when they upload, which can wait until after the wedding. | Free for 20 uploads, then C$67 to C$122 once |
| Google Photos shared album | A Google account to join the album and add photos. Anyone with the link can view. | Yes, for guests who join | Guests who will not sign in to Google have no way to add their shots. | Free, within Google storage |
| iCloud Shared Albums | An Apple Account on an Apple device. Apple says guests can join and add photos on the web without one on its newest software. | Yes, for guests who join | On Apple software version 26 or earlier, shared photos drop to 2048 pixels on the long edge and videos to 720p. | Free, within iCloud storage |
| Group chat | The same chat app, and someone adding every guest to the chat. | No, photos sit between messages | Someone has to scroll back and save the photos one by one. | Free |
| Disposable cameras | Nothing, a camera sits on each table. | Only after the film is developed | A fixed number of shots per camera, no video, and a wait for developing. | Cameras plus developing |

Comparing photo sharing apps instead of methods? Our best wedding photo sharing app for Canada guide lines up the apps side by side, and the Guestpix alternative page covers that one in detail.
A real Pix Wedding demo album: a guest scans the code, uploads from the browser, and the photo shows up in the album a moment later. This is what your guests see.
In Montreal, Quebec City, Ottawa or anywhere with family on both sides of the language line, guests read the sign before they scan. Copy these lines onto your welcome sign or table cards.

Straight answer: the upload page follows each guest's phone language. A phone set to French opens it in French, an English phone in English, and it also comes in German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Turkish. The sign still needs both languages, because guests read it before they scan. The page itself is short: choose photos, tap upload.
Guests need signal or wifi at the moment they upload, not at the moment they take the photo. At a lake in Muskoka or a lodge near Banff, that changes how you plan. Here is the timeline that keeps the album complete.
Walk the dock, the lodge terrace and the tent area with your phone. If only the main building has wifi, put the network name and password on the QR sign.
Anyone connected sends photos straight to the album. Guests without signal keep shooting, the photos wait on their phones.
The QR link keeps working after the party. Guests open it again from their browser history or the sign photo they took.
A short thank-you text or email with the album link catches the late uploaders. The upload link stays live 3 months on Starter, 6 on Standard and 12 on Pro after the wedding date.
Destination weddings in Whistler, Niagara-on-the-Lake or on a lake often run from Friday to Sunday. Standard includes up to 6 sub-albums, so each part of the weekend keeps its own photos under one QR code.
Friday drinks at the lodge or the cottage dock, often the only night everyone is relaxed.
Guests keep phones down during the vows, then upload the confetti walk and the family shots.
Speeches, first dance and the dance floor, the part guests film the most.
The quiet goodbye photos that usually never leave a guest's camera roll.
Pro adds AI selfie search, so each guest can find the photos they are in across the whole weekend. Face data stays private and is deleted with the event.
Each city page covers local venue styles and wedding seasons, plus how guest photo sharing fits there.
Codes get scanned where guests stand still with a phone in hand. Work through this list with your venue floor plan.

Start Your Free AlbumThe signal, sign and upload-window points are covered above. These three are about what guests hear and where the link lives.
Some guests will search the app store, find nothing and give up. The words that work are "scan the code on your table and upload", said once after dinner.
Half the photos end up in the album and half in the chat, and the chat copies are the ones nobody remembers to save. Post the QR link in the chat instead.
Programs get left on chairs after the ceremony, so a code printed only there is gone by dinner. Treat the program as a bonus and the spots above as the plan.
Still researching? Here is how Pix Wedding stacks up against the other major wedding photo sharing platforms.
Your photographer covers the portraits, the vows and the first dance. Guests catch everything around them: the next table over, the cousins on the dock, the last hour on the dance floor. Left alone, the two sets end up in different places, the professional gallery after the wedding and the guest shots scattered across a hundred camera rolls.
On Standard and Pro you can send your photographer a private upload link. Their files sit in their own photographer album, right next to the guest uploads in one gallery, and they do not need an account. Sub-albums keep the ceremony, the reception and the rest of the weekend apart, so one link holds the whole story.
Every paid plan includes a ZIP download of the full album in original quality, and you can download it at any point, not only at the end. The album stays stored for half a year on Starter, a year on Standard and two years on Pro, so save a copy to your own computer or drive before the storage window ends. The ZIP is yours to keep.
A simple rhythm works well: one ZIP after the honeymoon, when most guests have uploaded, and a final one when the upload window closes.

What Canadian couples ask before they print the code: CAD checkout, late uploads from out of province, French-speaking guests and Guestpix.
You create an album on Pix Wedding and print its QR code on signs or table cards. Guests scan it with the phone camera, a browser page opens, and their photos and videos go straight to your album. There is no app to install and no account to create, on iPhone or Android.
Yes. The free plan gives you a real album and QR code that takes 20 guest uploads, card-free, so you can scan it with your wedding party and watch the album fill before you commit. When you are ready for the full guest list, a one-time plan in CAD opens it up to every guest and adds unlimited photos and videos, the album ZIP, film roll mode and ready-to-print sign designs.
Yes. Checkout runs through Polar and accepts cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Canadian visitors see plan prices in Canadian dollars: C$67 for Starter, C$81 for Standard and C$122 for Pro, each a one-time payment.
Yes. The upload page follows the language of each guest's phone, so a phone set to French opens it in French and an English phone opens it in English. It also comes in German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Turkish. For a bilingual wedding, put the sign instructions in English and French too, since guests read the sign before they scan.
Photos stay on guests' phones until they reconnect. Guests open the same link later, on the drive home or back in the city, and upload then. One reminder message a few days after the wedding usually brings in the late ones.
Yes. The QR code opens a normal web link, so it works from any province or country. Starter keeps the upload link live for 3 months after the wedding date, Standard for 6 and Pro for a full year, and on every plan the album stays stored longer than the upload window. The full ZIP download is there whenever you want it.
Yes, on Standard and Pro. Standard includes up to 6 sub-albums, so a welcome night, the ceremony, the reception and a brunch can each have their own space inside one event.
We keep a side-by-side on our Guestpix alternative page, with Guestpix pricing checked on its own site. On Pix Wedding, guests upload from the browser with no app, and Canadian couples pay one-time in CAD. Our Canada app roundup puts the other options side by side.
One QR code, browser upload, no app. Start with 20 guest uploads free, then one payment in CAD.
