POV alternative

Cheaper per guest. Ours finds the moment after.

POV prices by guest count, and it undercuts almost everything on this page: $64.99 covers up to 175 guests, well under our $79. It also turns your gallery into a printed photobook, which nobody else here offers, and it works for more than weddings. What it does not do is tell you what is in any of the photos it collects.

Being fair about it

POV is genuinely cheaper at every guest count that matters.

Free covers up to 10 guests, $4.99 covers 25, $14.99 covers 50, $34.99 covers 100 and $64.99 covers up to 175, all read straight off their calculator on 24 September 2026. For most weddings that is less than our $79, sometimes by a lot, and the app has a 4.9-star rating from more than 28,000 reviews.

The photobook is a real feature we do not have.

POV will turn the finished gallery into a printed photobook. If you want something physical to come out of this beyond a download link, that is a reason to pick them.

It is not just a wedding tool, and they do not pretend it is.

The same calculator prices birthdays, baby showers and vacations on the personal side, and conferences, concerts, bars, ski resorts, schools and churches on the business side. If your event calendar has more than one wedding on it this year, POV covers the rest of it too.

Where it stops working

An App Clip is lighter than an app, not the same as a link.

An App Clip does not install the full app, and it genuinely lowers the friction. It still has to download before it opens, which is an extra tap and a wait a plain browser link does not ask for. Ours opens in whatever browser the guest already has.

The slideshow costs more the bigger your wedding gets.

Custom branding, the live slideshow and 24/7 support are bundled as one add-on. It comes free during a trial, then costs more as the guest count goes up, reaching $25 at 175 guests. Add it there and the total is $89.99, past our $79. The base price only wins if you skip the slideshow.

There is no public answer for how long any of it lasts.

POV's pricing page does not say how long uploads stay open or how long you can keep downloading afterward. We tell you exactly on the wedding page: three months to upload, twelve to keep everything.

Which one you want

Cheapest per guest: POV. Findable months later: us.

If price per guest is the whole decision and an App Clip does not bother you, POV is cheaper at almost every size, and the photobook is a nice touch we do not offer. If you want your own phone to hand you "grandma dancing" without scrolling, that is the trade the extra few dollars buys. Either way, put the code where guests will actually scan it.
