Wedding albums

A wedding album where the photos play the day

The photo of the vows plays the vows. The first-dance photo plays the first dance. Point a phone at any page of your printed album and the moment comes back, sound and all. No app and no QR codes on the pages.

Try it free with one of your own photos →Your first five Popcodes are free. No card needed.

How it works

Your photographer’s photos, your videographer’s clips (or your guests’ phone videos), one album.

Lay out the album

Upload your wedding photos and design a layflat photo book in your browser.

Link the clips

Pick a video for any photo: the vows, the toasts, the first dance, the send-off.

We print and ship it

Your album arrives with its own short address, like popcode.app/sam-and-alex.

Point a phone at a photo

Anyone opening the album goes to that address and points the camera at a page. The moment plays.

For the wedding and after

Every one of these can play video. Prices are on each product’s page in the Shop.

Also: wall calendars, photo mugs and gifts for the wedding party. Thank-you cards: add a Popcode to any photo you print on popcode.app/create.

Ideas for your wedding

  • Parents’ albums. A smaller copy for each set of parents, with the toasts they gave.
  • Thank-you cards with a photo that plays a short video thank-you from the two of you.
  • Guests’ videos. Collect the clips guests took on their phones and give each one a photo.
  • The first anniversary: paper is the traditional gift, and this one plays.
  • A wedding gift from friends: the album of the day, made for the couple.

Questions

Can I use the videos from our videographer?

Yes. Any video file you have can be linked to a photo: the videographer’s clips, or shorter cuts of them, and guests’ phone videos.

Are there QR codes on the pages?

No. The photo itself is what the phone recognises. A small Popcode symbol shows which photos play, and the web address is printed once in the album.

Does the person looking need an app?

No. They open the short popcode.app address printed on the piece in their phone’s web browser, allow the camera, and point it at the photo. It works on iPhone and Android, with nothing to download and no account to make.

How long do the videos stay online?

Every Popcode comes with five years of hosting from the day you make it. Before that runs out, we email you so you can renew it or download your photos and videos. Nothing is switched off without a word from us first.

Can I change a video after it’s printed?

Yes. The print stays the same, but you can swap what any photo plays from your Popcode account at any time.

What does it cost?

You pay for the printed product; the videos linked to anything you buy from the Popcode Shop are free and unlimited. To add videos to photos you already have, your first five are free; see Pricing.

Do you ship in the US?

Yes. Popcode is a US company and ships to addresses across the United States.
