OurFilm vs GuestPix: Which Wedding Photo App Fits?

The short answer: choose OurFilm when you want guests to take a limited set of new, unreviewed photos. Choose GuestPix when you want to collect a larger mix of existing photos, videos, messages and event information in one gallery.

Both products let wedding guests join through a QR code without downloading an app. The important difference is what happens next: OurFilm opens a finite camera, while GuestPix opens a broader media-sharing experience.

This comparison is published by OurFilm, so it is not an independent review. GuestPix features were checked against its official wedding pricing page and free-gallery help page on 2026-09-17. Plans, limits and regional prices may change.

OurFilm vs GuestPix at a glance

The biggest difference is capture versus collection

OurFilm treats the phone as a disposable camera. The host chooses one roll length for everyone. Guests cannot preview or retake a committed camera photo. The uncertainty is part of the event format. If the host enables after-event uploads, guests can add saved photos only during the 24 hours after the event ends, using the remaining frames in their original roll. Videos are not accepted.

GuestPix is designed to collect more of what guests already have. Its paid plans support photos and videos, content moderation, live slideshows, multiple albums and guestbook contributions. That is more useful when completeness is the goal.

Reveal and guest participation

OurFilm can reveal the album immediately or hold every photo until the event ends. The host can also keep the final gallery private from guests. This makes the first look a deliberate moment.

GuestPix centres a live gallery and slideshow. Guests can contribute and see the wider event collection as it develops. If the screen at the venue is part of the entertainment, GuestPix has the stronger feature set.

Pricing models

GuestPix offers a free gallery with up to 50 photo uploads and several paid wedding packages. Paid plans expand the upload window and unlock unlimited photos and videos subject to fair use, with inclusions varying by tier.

OurFilm is free for up to five participants. A one-time event purchase removes the participant cap, but each guest still receives the finite roll chosen by the host. Check both live pricing pages before buying.

Choose GuestPix when

• guests need to upload existing photos or videos;
• you want a written or video guestbook;
• a live slideshow, comments or reactions matter;
• you need multiple albums, themes, invitations or RSVP tools;
• collecting as much media as possible matters more than a shot limit.

Choose OurFilm when

• you want a no-preview, no-retake camera game;
• every guest should receive the same finite roll;
• photos should stay hidden until the event ends;
• you want a private, photo-only gallery and full download;
• a smaller guest flow is more valuable than additional features.

Do GuestPix and OurFilm require a guest app?

No. Both provide browser-based guest access through a QR code or private link.

Can OurFilm guests upload existing photos or videos?

Saved photos are allowed only if the host enables after-event uploads. Guests can select them only during the 24 hours after the event ends, using the remaining frames in their original roll. Videos are not accepted. GuestPix is the better fit for broader media collection.

Which product has a delayed reveal?

OurFilm can hold the gallery until the event ends. GuestPix is organised around a live gallery and slideshow experience.

Can a GuestPix gallery be imported into OurFilm?

No automatic import is available. Download the GuestPix media before creating and sharing a new OurFilm event.
