Phone Number
A QR code can scan to your mobile number which allows the user to select if they want to call you or to text you, however if you only want a text, we can specify this on your invitations. Alternatively we can set it up to send a whatsapp message.
Wedding Website
A wedding website can hold all of your additional information to keep your invitations simple, some websites also offer the ability to gather your RSVP and menu options from your guests. Free websites are available from places such as Hitched or Joy.
A QR code can scan to your email address, this will open up their preferred email app on their phone or device or offer them the choice to open in a different app.
Maps

Photos
Create a google drive that guests can upload photos and videos to, this is great for getting to see all the shots you might miss.
If you have an idea of what images you might like to have captured why not have an eye-spy game so guests can participate on your behalf.
Songs
Have spotify codes on your table numbers named after your favourite songs and let guests hear these for themselves, or let them create a song play list to keep the party going late into the night.
Order of Events
Let your guests bring up a list of what is happening and when so that they can plan out any time periods for taking medicine, feeding children or a movement break. Seeing who is in the bridal party or reading the menu in full to check for allergies.
Your Love Story
Show off you personal love story with dates, photos and key facts, why not add in a fun relationship quiz.

Do you have a charity close to your heart that you would rather have donations for than anything for yourselves, let the QR code scan directly to a go fund me or charity website page.
