Wedding Photo Apps: 10 Apps That Collect Your Guests' Photos (PHOTOS)

Remember when couples used to put disposable cameras on every table and invite guests to snap their own wedding photos? There's now a decidedly more high-tech way to encourage your guests to take their own pictures on your Big Day.

Photo-sharing iPhone and Android apps allow your guests to snap photos on their smartphones and share them in an online wedding "album." Then, you can download your favorites, share them on Facebook, or even display them in a slideshow during the wedding.

We rounded up 10 of our favorite photo-sharing apps designed specifically with weddings in mind. Click through the slideshow below to find out what they offer, how much they cost and which ones you can get for free.

  • Wedding Snap

    After signing up on <a href="https://www.weddingsnap.com/site/tour/" target="_blank">WeddingSnap.com</a>, tell your guests to download the Wedding Snap app via instructional cards, email or Facebook. They can upload photos and video to your album during the wedding even if they don't have service in your venue -- as soon as they have better reception, the photos will be uploaded automatically. After the wedding, you can download and print the photos. The basic package costs $129; for $199, all your photos will be retouched by a professional photographer, and for $249, you'll get photo retouching and a live slideshow that will display your guests' photos at the wedding as they take them.

  • Capsule

    Sign up for <a href="http://trycapsule.com/" target="_blank">Capsule</a> for free online and invite your guests to download the mobile app and join your "capsule." In addition to uploading photos and videos, you can also send group texts and post information directly from your email account. After the wedding, you can order prints, cards and canvasses of any image.

  • AppilyWed

    Share information about your venue, itinerary, maps, photos and messages on <a href="http://www.appilywed.com/" target="_blank">AppilyWed</a>, which guests can view on the free app or online. At the wedding, guests can upload their photos. Packages start at $99.99 for eight months of service. For $199.99, you get 36 months of service and a custom domain name.

  • GuestShots

    Invite your guests to share their photos and video using the <a href="http://www.guestshots.com/" target="_blank">GuestShots</a> app or website; then, you can choose how you want to view your photos from a variety of packages. For $10 you can copy the photos to a Facebook album; for $149 you can design a 100-page wedding album (pictured on the left); and for $49 you can create a wedding movie.

  • Wedding Party

    <a href="http://www.mywedding.com/apps/public/partner/wedding-party" target="_blank">Wedding Party</a> is partnered with <a href="http://www.mywedding.com/" target="_blank">MyWedding.com</a>, so the photos your guests upload can be shared on your My Wedding website. After downloading the app yourself, invite your guests to download the app and start sharing their photos.

  • Cake Face

    Guests can share their photos using the <a href="http://cakefaceapp.com/" target="_blank">Cake Face</a> app; then, the photos are added to an online album in real-time that can be projected on a big screen during your wedding. The service costs $199.

  • WedSocial

    Sign up for <a href="https://wedsocial.com/" target="_blank">WedSocial</a> and invite your guests to download the app and share photos. Upgrade for $149 to share event information (including directions to the venue using Google Maps), engagement photos, a bio of you and your spouse-to-be, and information about your bridal party.

  • WedPics

    Download the free <a href="http://www.wedpics.com/" target="_blank">WedPics</a> app, then invite your guests to participate (via email or Facebook). Guests can view your album and upload photos throughout the night (or after the wedding) and can use photo filters and post comments. Guests without smartphones can also upload their photos on the web.

  • Snapable

    For $79, create an album and invite guests to take photos using the <a href="http://snapable.com/#how-it-works" target="_blank">Snapable</a> app -- a copy of every photo taken with the app will be added to your album. After the wedding, download your favorite photos and share them on social media.

  • PhotoOpp

    Purchase <a href="http://www.ourphotoopp.com/" target="_blank">PhotoOpp</a> online for $99 and invite your guests to download the PhotoOpp app. Unlike other apps, guests don't need to register and make an account -- after you enter your wedding venue information, the app will be automatically enabled when your guests arrive. They can upload and view photos during the event, and guests who can't attend can see the photos streamed live online.
