Our Event Album vs WedPics
WedPics is no longer a current wedding photo-sharing option. Mixbook acquired WedPics in 2017, and industry reporting says WedPics shut down on February 15, 2019. If you are comparing WedPics with Our Event Album in 2026, the practical question is not which active service is better; it is what replaces the old WedPics workflow now.

Frequently asked questions
Should I choose Our Event Album or WedPics?
WedPics is no longer available, so it is not an option for a current wedding. Our Event Album provides the same basic job - collect guest photos and videos in one place - but with QR-code browser uploads, live slideshow, comments, likes, and current support.
How much does Our Event Album cost compared to WedPics?
Our Event Album starts at $39 as a single one-time event payment. WedPics has no current purchasable app plan; historical mirrors list the old app as free before it shut down.
Can I switch from WedPics to Our Event Album?
You can use Our Event Album as a replacement for future events. If you had an old WedPics gallery, access may no longer be available because WedPics shut down in 2019.

Our Event Album does not require guests to download an app. Historical WedPics was app-led, with web upload support mentioned for digital-camera users.
