Common Questions About Photo Scavenger Hunt
Do wedding guests actually participate in photo scavenger hunts?
Yes! When prompts are fun, easy, and don't require an app download, between 30% and 55% of guests enthusiastically participate, capturing hundreds of spontaneous moments.
How many prompts should I put on a scavenger hunt card?
We recommend 8 to 10 prompts per card. Fewer than 6 feels too brief, while more than 12 can feel overwhelming and clutter the table stationery design.
Where should we place the scavenger hunt cards at the wedding?
Place one card at each table setting, or stand a 5x7 table tent card between the centerpiece and wine glasses at each dining table. You can also place cards by the guest book and cocktail bar.
How do guests upload their completed scavenger hunt photos?
Print your WedShare QR code directly on the scavenger hunt card. Guests simply scan the code with their smartphone camera and upload their photos instantly to your shared live gallery.
