Putting the QR code on the tables is a good start, but it's not enough.

Print the code as soon as it is active

The QR code stays the same from the first test to the end of the evening, so print it the week before. A card placed on an empty table, once everyone is on the dance floor, is useless.

Test the code on site

Scan it yourself, at two metres, with the room wifi then with your phone network, especially if the room is in the basement.

Put a sign at the entrance

It is the first thing your guests see. Use a large format, at least 11 × 17 in, place it at eye level and make sure it is well lit.

Display the code on every table

Use a smaller format and place the signs before people sit down, not behind the centrepiece. It works during the meal, but after, nobody looks at the tables anymore.

Do not forget the bar, the buffet and the coat check

In a lineup, everyone already has their phone in hand. Put a sign at every place where people wait.

Remind people to scan the code when the photos are being taken

During the cocktail, a mention on the mic is likely to be forgotten by the first slow dance. To make sure everyone takes part, repeat the same sentence at the key moments when phones come out: the group photo, the end of the speech, the cake, and one last time before the guests leave.

The next day counts as much as the evening

It is very likely that some people still have photos on their phone. Share the guest link by email or text in the family or guest group. You will find it in the Share tab of your host space.
