One gallery across multiple rooms
Cocktails, ceremony, dinner, and dancing usually happen in different rooms. PicShots collects every candid into the same event gallery without the host moving anything between apps.
For hotel ballroom events
Hotel ballroom weddings & receptions
Ballroom events move fast: cocktail hour in the foyer, dinner in the main room, dancing on a separate floor. PicShots gives every guest one QR code, no app install, and a single shared gallery for every candid across every room.

Why PicShots fits
Built for the rhythm of hotel ballrooms
AV-friendly QR display
Ballroom venues nearly always have screens and projectors. The QR code can be displayed on the welcome slide deck, on signage near the foyer, and printed on table cards.
No app install for hotel guests
Half your guest list is already exhausted from check-in and travel. A scan-and-shoot browser flow is the only camera setup that consistently works for everyone.
Bulk download for the album
Hotel weddings usually pair PicShots with a professional photographer. After the event, download the full ZIP and pass it to your editor for inclusion in the album.
Setup tips
How to set up the guest camera at hotel ballrooms
1 Print the QR on table cards
Slot the QR next to the menu or favour at every table — couples who do this collect 3–5× more uploads than a single foyer QR.
2 Display the QR on the welcome screen
Hotel ballrooms nearly always have an LED screen near the entrance. Ask the AV team to loop your QR slide during cocktails.
3 Mention it once at the speeches
A 10-second MC mention before dinner doubles uploads on average. Frame it as 'help us collect every angle of the night'.

FAQ
Common questions
Does PicShots work with hotel Wi-Fi?
Yes. PicShots runs in the mobile browser, so it works on hotel Wi-Fi, mobile data, or both. If the hotel has guest Wi-Fi, share the password near the QR card so uploads are even faster.
Will it interfere with the hotel photographer?
No. PicShots runs entirely in guests' phones and uses no extra gear at the venue. Most couples use it alongside their hotel-recommended photographer, not instead of one.
Can we keep uploads private during dinner?
Yes. Keep the gallery hidden while guests upload during dinner and dancing. Reveal it before the goodbyes — or weeks later when you have time to curate.
Can we use the same QR for the cocktail hour and reception?
Yes. One event QR works for the entire night across cocktails, dinner, and dancing. Every upload from every room lands in the same gallery.
