Pinheiros, São Paulo, Brazil

Why Pinheiros works for hotel ballrooms

Pinheiros is known for creative lofts, rooftop parties, and corporate social events with mixed guest devices. Reception halls, restaurant venues, and rooftop spaces fit well.

  • Large indoor seated capacity
  • Hotel-managed catering and AV
  • Separate cocktail and dinner rooms
  • Bridal suite or break-out rooms

Why PicShots fits

A safer local guide, without pretending to be venue-affiliated

  • 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.

  • 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

QR setup for Pinheiros events

  1. 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. 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. 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'.

  4. 4

    Put Portuguese on the QR card

    A one-line Portuguese prompt under the English scan instruction helps grandparents and out-of-town relatives join without asking younger guests for help.

  5. 5

    Pinheiros placement tip

    Add a welcome-screen QR — Pinheiros loft events often skip formal seating and need a high-visibility prompt.
