Our Event Album vs WedPics

1/5 · 3 reviews
from reviews we collected

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.

This was perfect for my wedding day. I do wish it came with an option to order table cards directly vs having to print yourself.

How much does Our Event Album cost compared to WedPics?

Our Event Album starts at {{ourPrice}} 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.

How to evaluate Our Event Album vs WedPics

Searches for Our Event Album vs WedPics, WedPics alternative, and WedPics alternatives usually come from people who already know the category but are unsure which tool fits their event. The useful comparison is not a feature count. It is whether guests can contribute without friction and whether the host can keep, download, and share the final album easily.

A strong alternative should reduce guest steps, avoid surprise limits, and leave the host with one complete photo collection after the event.

What to compare before switching

  • Check whether the tool you choose for apps like WedPics lets guests upload from a browser instead of requiring a mobile app.
  • Compare what is included at the base price: QR code, hosting time, downloads, video support, and printable signage.
  • Look for privacy controls when evaluating wedding photo app comparison, especially for weddings, schools, memorials, and workplace events.
  • Read the setup flow, not just the marketing page. The best alternative is the one a host can launch without support.
