Everything your guests can share, and everything you keep

With a single QR code, your guests send videos, photos and notes. During the party, their photos play as a slideshow on a screen in the room. Afterward, their video messages become a film, and you keep every file.

What does Video Message do?

Video Message is a video guest book and shared photo album for weddings, birthdays, retirements and other celebrations. Guests scan a QR code and send video messages, photos and written notes from their phone, with no app and no account. Photos can play live on a screen at the venue. After the party, the host receives a first film of the video messages, builds a personalized film with photos and notes, and downloads every file.

Choosing the videos, photos and notes for the personalized film

First film and personalized film

Your first film is edited automatically from the video messages and delivered within 24 hours after collection closes. Then you create your personalized film: add photos and written notes, and choose the order and the mood.

Your album and films, to keep

Your films, every photo and video from your guests, and the message book as a PDF: download them to keep at home. To protect your guests’ security and privacy, we keep nothing longer than 3 months after your first film is delivered. After that, everything is deleted from our servers.

  • Photos and videos to download
  • Message book as a PDF
  • Deleted after 3 months, for security

What Video Message does not do

  • No printed book is shipped: the message book is a PDF.
  • The slideshow shows photos, not videos, and does not cast itself to the TV: you need a screen with a web browser and internet.
  • No public gallery: photos and videos arrive in your private space, and you share what you want.
  • The first film holds the video messages only. Photos and notes go into the personalized film, if you want them.

Frequently asked questions

Do guests need to download an app?

No. They scan the QR code or open the link, then join from their phone’s browser, without creating an account.

How many photos can a guest send?

As many as they like, several at a time from their phone’s gallery. For videos, each guest can send up to 3 one-minute messages.

What is in each of the two films?

The first film brings together the video messages and is delivered within 24 hours after collection closes. The personalized film adds the photos and notes you pick, in the order and mood you prefer.

How long are the files available?

For 3 months after your first film is delivered. Download your films, photos, videos and message book before then: after that, everything is deleted from our servers to protect your guests.
