01

Ask what guests receive immediately

Clarify whether guests receive texts, emails, QR downloads, prints or a combination. If digital delivery depends on connectivity, ask what happens when service is weak.

The immediate guest experience and final couple gallery may be different deliverables.

02

Define the couple archive

Ask whether you receive every captured image, completed sessions or a curated gallery, plus the file resolution and any GIF or video deliverables.

If originals matter, compare that before booking.

03

Understand gallery access

Confirm whether the gallery is public, password-protected or private-link only, and whether guests browse all images or only their own.

Choose the privacy model that fits your guest group.

04

Know the retention window

Ask how long the gallery remains available. Download what you want to keep and create your own backup.

Include that download in the post-wedding checklist.

05

Plan how the gallery is shared

If guests will receive the gallery later, decide how. Save delivery details in your couple account with the booth contract.

Wedding Builder can keep the booth decision connected to entertainment priorities and budget.

Portland wedding planning FAQ

How do wedding photo booth galleries work?

Providers may deliver images by text, email, QR code, online gallery or another method. Ask what guests receive at the event and what the couple receives afterward.

How long do wedding photo booth galleries stay online?

There is no universal retention period. Ask the provider how long the gallery and download links remain available, then save important files before access expires.

Are wedding photo booth galleries private?

Do not assume they are. Ask who receives the gallery link, whether guests can browse all images and what permissions the provider has to use or publish the photos.
