WedShoots alternative

A WedShoots alternative that loses no guest

WedShoots is the free app from Mariages.net. It asks every guest to install it and delivers basic retrieval. Evokly opens the gallery through a QR code, keeps original quality and hands each guest their photos through a selfie.

Is there a free alternative to WedShoots?

Yes: Evokly's free plan covers one event, 100 photos, 10 contributors and 15 days online, with no app and no credit card. For a full wedding, the Event plan at 69 euros paid once lifts the limits and adds facial recognition. The difference with WedShoots is the install: there is none, which changes how many guests actually take part.

Why look for an alternative to WedShoots

One app per guest

WedShoots asks every guest to download the app, create a profile and join the album with a code. Out of a hundred guests of all ages, some stop there. With Evokly, a QR code on the table is enough.

Basic retrieval

Bulk-downloading full-resolution photos takes some effort in WedShoots. With Evokly, the organiser gets the whole event back in one file, in original quality, on the Event plan.

No sorting, no facial recognition

WedShoots delivers a simple collaborative album. Evokly sorts by date and moment, and each guest finds the photos they appear in by taking a selfie, with their consent.

When to stay with WedShoots

Stay with WedShoots if you plan your whole wedding on Mariages.net, your guests are few and used to apps, or if a zero budget is an absolute constraint and retrieval quality matters little to you.
