Core list

Start with prompts that match moments guests already notice.

The best prompts do not force awkward behavior. They point guests toward things they already see: laughter, details, dancing, hugs, and people reacting to the day.

  • *A table selfie.
  • *The funniest dance-floor moment.
  • *A tiny detail the couple might miss.
  • *Someone seeing the couple for the first time.

Video prompts

Ask for a few short clips, not long recordings.

Short videos bring the room back: applause, singing, speeches, cheers, and dance-floor sound. Keep the ask light so guests do not feel like camera operators.

  • *Ten seconds of the dance floor.
  • *A cheer from your table.
  • *A quick message to the couple.
  • *The room during the last song.

Placement

Put prompts near the QR, but do not overload the sign.

Use three to five prompts on the printed sign. Longer lists belong in a follow-up card, program insert, or blog-style inspiration page.

  • *Keep the main QR sign scannable.
  • *Use one playful prompt near the bar.
  • *Use softer prompts near the guestbook table.

Tone

Prompts should feel invited, not assigned.

Guests are there to celebrate, not complete homework. Frame the scavenger hunt as a way to help the couple remember the room from every angle.

  • *Use warm language.
  • *Avoid too many rules.
  • *Let people send normal photos too.
Questions

Answers before you make the QR.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. Gooya opens in the phone browser from one QR code. Guests can use the camera or their library without installing an app, making an account, or remembering a password.

Can guests see everyone else's uploads?

No. Gooya is write-only for guests by default. They send their own memory, see that it landed, and return to the event. The private gallery belongs to the host.

Can the host download everything?

Yes. The host can download the visible memories in one ZIP, including the original photo and video files Gooya stores for the event.
