Wedding photo delivery is complete only when the couple knows what has arrived, what remains, how guests gain access, what may be downloaded, and how long the gallery stays open. Use the checklist before sending the final link, then keep a dated record of the handoff.
Before upload
- Finish culling and the agreed edit.
- Remove accidental duplicates and test frames.
- Confirm image order tells the day clearly.
- Export the contracted file sizes and color space.
- Keep the protected working archive required by the contract.
- Verify that names and dates are correct.
Separate any couple-only selection from the guest gallery before access is shared.
Configure the gallery
Choose the access mode, code, download quality, favorites, print options, and closure date. Open the gallery in a signed-out browser window and on a phone.
If the gallery is large, consider a recovery route that avoids endless browsing. Event Face Finder for weddings can let guests search one event for likely personal matches while the photographer or organizer controls downloads.
Write the couple's delivery message
Include:
- The final gallery link
- Access code and forwarding guidance
- What is included
- Download instructions
- Backup recommendation
- Guest-sharing route
- Gallery closing date
- Correction or support contact
- Album or print next steps
Avoid sending the only access instruction inside a disappearing chat message.
Quality check
| Surface | Test |
|---|---|
| Phone | First screen, menu, portrait images, download |
| Desktop | Full gallery, slideshow, batch action |
| Signed-out window | Access without photographer login |
| Slow network | Loading state and image stability |
| Link, code, dates, support contact | |
| Guest route | Clear purpose, access, and exit |
After delivery
Confirm the couple received the message. Schedule a reminder before gallery closure. Record any couple-only selections before sending guest access. When an album or print order changes the selected set, keep those choices separate from the delivered digital gallery.
After sending, confirm receipt and schedule the closing reminder before moving on to albums or print orders.
