Most couples ask the same question: how many photo challenges do we actually need? Too few and the gallery feels thin; too many and guests freeze. This planner does the math: it takes your guest and table count, factors in the vibe of your day, and recommends a print-ready mix from our 55-prompt library.

Plan your photo challenge

Three numbers, one curated prompt list. No sign-up.

Rules of thumb

  • One prompt per table is the floor — guests glance, take, move on.
  • Aim for 8–15 unique prompts regardless of guest count; more than 15 makes the gallery feel scattered.
  • Print extras. Cards walk off as souvenirs. Add 2 to your print count, or 20 % of the table count, whichever is larger.
  • Mix categories. A balanced mix beats five photos of the bouquet.

Common questions

How many photo challenges should we create for our wedding?

Aim for one prompt per table. For most weddings that's 8 to 15 unique prompts. Larger weddings (150+) don't need more prompts — they need more printed copies.

Why do I need extra printed cards?

Cards routinely vanish into pockets and clutch bags as souvenirs. Print 2 spares per challenge, or 20 % of the table count — whichever is higher.

Can I edit the prompt list after using this planner?

Yes. The planner only suggests a starting set. After clicking through to create your challenge, you can add, remove or rewrite any prompt before printing.
