A present that’s still in the making
You set up the event, the guests fill it with pictures on the wedding day. In the end the couple gets hundreds of moments they never saw themselves.
The couple already has a toaster, and money feels impersonal. What almost every couple misses after the wedding is the guests’ photos. That’s exactly what you can give – organised by you, without the couple lifting a finger.
No app. No subscription. Guests don’t need an account.
You set up the event, the guests fill it with pictures on the wedding day. In the end the couple gets hundreds of moments they never saw themselves.
Keep the gallery closed and open it together with the couple – at brunch the next day or by sending the link along on honeymoon.
Ideal as a group gift from the bridesmaids and groomsmen, siblings or friends. The price is one-off; there’s no subscription.
Money in an envelope is practical but seldom personal. Anyone wanting to give the couple something lasting soon arrives at memories – and the most precious memories of a wedding are the pictures the couple never saw themselves: their own parents on the dance floor, friends raising a glass, children blowing bubbles.
With Sammelmomente that’s exactly what you give: a private gallery where all the guests collect their photos during the celebration. The present only comes into being on the night itself – and the couple unwraps it the next morning.
As best man or maid of honour you’re involved in the planning anyway. You create the event, design the table cards with the QR code in the editor and arrange a short announcement with the venue or DJ. The Wedding package for up to 100 guests costs a one-off 34.99 euros and is easy to split among friends.
Have a quick word with the couple first if you’re unsure whether they’re already planning something similar. The reveal itself can still be a surprise.
Set the gallery to manual reveal. At breakfast the next day or at brunch with the remaining guests, you open it with a click and give the couple the link. All the pictures can be downloaded as a ZIP – to round off the present, turn them into a photo book later.
With the Wedding package the photos are stored for 180 days and then deleted automatically. So do remind the couple to save the pictures in good time.
You’ll find the process in detail under How it works, and all packages under Pricing.
A guide by type of solution, not a comparison of specific providers. What other digital services and cloud storage offer depends on the service, plan and settings in question – check their current product information. For Sammelmomente, the limits of each package apply.

Not yet. For now the gift works like this: you set up the event yourselves and hand the photos to the couple at the end. A voucher is an obvious next step, but isn’t available yet.
Only if you want them to. You don’t put the cards on the tables until the wedding day. The couple doesn’t need an account of their own.
A short announcement is what counts, ideally from you as best man or maid of honour after dinner. Cards on every table and a note in the order of the day help as well.
Up to 10 guests, Sammelmomente is free for good. The 100 guests package is a one-off €39 per event and covers up to 100 guests with 30 photos each and 90 days of storage. There’s no subscription and no automatic renewal.
Through the printable card from the editor (A4, A5 or A6) that you put out at the wedding, or through the event link you send by messenger or with the invitation. Both lead to the same page.
No. Guests scan the QR code, confirm the privacy notice and take photos right in their phone’s browser. Nothing is installed and no account is created.
