Joy or JoinAlbum for your guests' photos?
Joy is a wedding website that also collects photos. JoinAlbum does one thing: collect every photo and video from your event.
Joy is a free wedding planning suite with a website, RSVPs and an app. Its shared photo albums let guests upload through a link without a Joy account, with up to 1,000 photos per event at no cost. Two things to check: Joy's help centre says the album has to be public for guests to upload, so anyone with the link can see it, and its guest documentation describes photos rather than videos. JoinAlbum keeps the album private while guests upload, takes photos and videos, and adds a QR studio for the sign. It's free with up to 10 files and €49 once for unlimited.
