I came across someone who is creating an app that will allow our wedding guests to check in at the wedding and then as you take pictures during the ceremony and reception, they'll be posted to an online gallery.  Not only do I love this feature because we have many friends with great hi-def cameras on their phones, but we will have a live feed to our gallery during the reception.  We are planning to have a projector that we'll connect to our personal gallery so that our guests will be able to view the pictures as they are being taken.  As a scrapbooker, I love this, because I will have so many candids to crop for the wedding album. So many people take pictures at weddings, but you generally don't get copies of them unless the person taking them wants to forward, and then it's only a few usually.  Instead of having to hunt down all the great photos, we're going to use this new app to gather ours in one place for everyone to view and for me to print!

In my conversations with one of the creators of this app, he mentioned that several people who had contacted him were getting married on 10-01-11.  I explained that we are tech geeks and the reason that we chose it was because it's binary.  I shared our Android wedding plans with him and they have now mentioned us on their blog!  Check it out here: http://blog.albumpl.us/post/5594524569/free-premium-codes-if-your-wedding-is-on

They have an iPhone app already done and Android is coming shortly!  All you have to do is download the app and check in to our location the day of.  We'll make sure everyone has the correct access information prior to the wedding, because we can't wait to see the pictures that you take!
