Photos only

How Candid Cam handles the photos instead

Every upload waits for your approval

Each photo and video goes to your private review queue first. Approve it and it joins the shared album. Guests never see what you leave out, and nobody has to watch the gallery during the reception.

No storage end date

A paid album stays online until you delete it, so there is no extension to buy a year later. You can download all photos and videos at any time.

Keep the website you have

Candid Cam has no RSVPs, seating chart or wedding website. Put the QR code on your signs, and make them with the free QR code sign template.

A fair answer

Is Wedibox worth it?

Often, yes. Wedibox puts photo sharing, an audio guestbook and a wedding website behind one QR code, and All-In-One adds RSVPs and a seating chart, all for one payment. If you would otherwise use separate tools for those, US$49 or US$79 replaces several of them.

It is less of a fit if you already have a wedding website and RSVPs and only need the photos. After one or two years of storage, the gallery is also archived, not deleted, until you pay to extend it.

Choose Wedibox if

  • You want RSVPs, a seating chart, a wedding website and photo sharing in one place.
  • You expect a lot of photos and videos. The Wedding plan has unlimited uploads for US$49.
  • Guests will film long clips. Candid Cam videos are up to 20 seconds each.
  • You want to try it for free with no time limit, up to 50 photos.

Choose Candid Cam if

  • You want each upload to wait for your approval before it reaches the shared album.
  • You want no storage end date. A paid album stays online until you delete it.
  • You already have a wedding website and RSVPs, and only need guest photos and videos.
  • 200 uploads, up to 60 of them videos, are enough. Social is US$35, less than the US$49 Wedding plan.

Wedibox questions, answered

Is Wedibox worth it?

For many couples, yes. Wedibox is one payment of US$29, US$49 or US$79, and its Wedding and All-In-One plans have unlimited photo and video uploads plus an audio guestbook and a live slideshow, and All-In-One adds RSVPs. Candid Cam is the better fit if you only need guest photos and videos, want every upload held for your review by default, or want an album with no storage end date, for US$35 once.

How much does Wedibox cost?

Wedibox has a free plan for 50 guest photo uploads. Paid plans are one-time payments: Embed US$29 with a 3-month upload window, Wedding US$49 with 6 months of uploads and 1 year of storage, and All-In-One US$79 with 1 year of uploads and 2 years of storage.

Is there a free Wedibox alternative?

Candid Cam is free for your first 50 photos, with no videos and no card, the same photo count as the Wedibox free plan. A free Candid Cam gallery expires 30 days after the wedding, while the Wedibox free plan has no time limit. Paid Candid Cam plans start at US$35 once.

How long does Wedibox keep your photos?

Wedibox keeps a paid gallery online for 1 year on Embed and Wedding and 2 years on All-In-One. When storage ends, the gallery is archived, not deleted: browsing pauses until you pay to extend storage by a year. You can also download a ZIP before it ends. A paid Candid Cam album stays online until you delete it.

Can I approve Wedibox photos before guests see them?

Wedibox lets you delete or hide uploads, keep albums hidden, or hide the live feed so that guests can upload but only you can see the gallery. In Candid Cam, each upload waits in your private review queue, and you choose which ones go into the shared album.
