GuestPix review and alternative: GuestPix vs Confetti Frame
GuestPix is one of the best-known QR guest-photo platforms, and it collects photos competently. The question worth asking is what happens to those photos afterwards. This page sets out what GuestPix does today and where Confetti Frame goes further — chapters of the wedding day, approve-before-public curation, and a live reception screen included in one flat price. We publish it, and we have kept every factual claim checkable.
Quick verdict
GuestPix suits
Couples running several events at once who want one long package ladder and multi-event bundles more than they want a curated wedding gallery.
Confetti Frame suits
Most couples: the wedding day comes back organised into chapters, nothing reaches family until you approve it, and the live reception screen is included rather than bolted on.

Guest experience
On both platforms the guest journey is the same shape: see a card or sign, point the camera, tap the link, choose photos, upload. Neither asks a guest to download anything or create an account, which is the single biggest predictor of whether older guests take part.
The difference is what happens at the moment of upload. GuestPix collects into a gallery (and optionally albums you have set up). Confetti Frame asks one extra question — which part of the day is this? — and that one tap is what makes the archive readable a year later.
Couple experience
GuestPix gives you a QR code, a private URL with an optional PIN and editable Canva templates for signage. It is a capable collection tool, and the work of turning what arrives into something worth revisiting is still yours.
Confetti Frame is focused on exactly that job: chapters, an approval queue, visibility modes (private vault, moderated public gallery, or live) and a download-everything button. Everything in the product exists to make the morning-after gallery worth opening — and to make it effortless for you.
Privacy and storage
GuestPix offers private galleries with a PIN and content moderation. Confetti Frame's default is stricter: nothing is publicly visible until you approve it, and each guest can always see their own uploads even while the gallery is private.
Both are time-windowed products, not permanent archives. On GuestPix the window is tied to your package (3 or 12 months from the event date). On Confetti Frame it is 3 or 12 months depending on tier, extendable. On either platform, download your originals before the window closes and keep your own backup.
Pricing
GuestPix
- GuestPix sells wedding packages — Classic, Signature and Signature Bundle — and prices are shown through a currency switcher on their pricing page, with promotional inclusions that change from time to time. At the time of checking, the Signature package was listed at €79 on GuestPix's own product page.
- Because those prices move with currency and current offers, check GuestPix's pricing page for today's number rather than trusting any comparison page — including this one.
Confetti Frame
- Private Vault: £39 / $49 one-time — chapters, approval-based gallery, 3 months of full-resolution storage.
- Live Celebration: £79 / $99 one-time — everything above plus the live reception feed and 12 months of storage.
- Creating an event and testing the full QR upload flow is free. You pay when you decide to go live.

Which should you choose?
Choose GuestPix if…
- ◆You need engagement, rehearsal and wedding events bundled into one purchase.
- ◆You want a very wide package ladder and are happy to pick the right rung.
- ◆A PIN-protected shared feed is all you need, and organising the photos yourself afterwards does not bother you.
Choose Confetti Frame if…
- ◆You want the day itself structured — chapters rather than one long feed or manual albums.
- ◆You want to approve photos before anyone else sees them, as the default rather than an option.
- ◆You want the live reception screen and a 12-month full-resolution window in one flat price.
Frequently asked
Do guests need an app or an account for GuestPix?
No. GuestPix states that guests scan a QR code or tap a link with no guest registration. Confetti Frame works the same way. On both, guest friction is low.
How long do photos stay online with GuestPix?
It depends on the package. GuestPix's Classic package is described as a 3-month window, while Signature and Luxe keep the upload window open for 12 months from your event date. Confetti Frame is 3 months on Private Vault and 12 months on Live Celebration. Download your originals before any window closes.
Which is cheaper?
It depends on the package and your currency, and GuestPix runs periodic offers, so compare on the day you buy. Confetti Frame is flat: £39 / $49 or £79 / $99 one-time.
Can I test either before paying?
With Confetti Frame you can create your event and run a real QR upload test straight away, before paying anything — GuestPix opens your gallery two weeks before the event date.
