Notifying your guests when the photos arrive

Updated July 23, 2026

It happens all the time: your guests scan the QR that same evening, but the photos aren't ready for a few days.

The waitlist closes that gap. A guest who arrives too early leaves their first name, last name, and an email address or WhatsApp number. Once the photos are up, you send the alert by hand from the event page.

What to keep in mind

  • The alert is never automatic: you send it once you decide the selection is ready.
  • Which channels you can use (email, WhatsApp) depends on the plan.
  • A guest who's already been notified won't get the same message twice.

Tip: at the end of the evening, say over the mic that anyone who leaves their email will be notified. It can double your collection rate.
