How can we share wedding photos with family and friends who are not online?

Short answer

For guests who are not online, you can print a selection of photos and send them by post, or create a printed photo album. You can also ask a tech-savvy guest to help them view photos on a device.

Some family and friends may not use the internet, so you will need a different way to share your photos. The kindest option is to print a selection of your favourite photos and send them by post. You could print a small set of 6x4 prints and pop them in a card, or make a simple photo book from an online printing service. That gives them something physical to keep and look at.

You can also ask a relative or friend who is comfortable with technology to help. They could load the photos onto a tablet or laptop and show them during a visit. That way your loved one can still see all the photos, even if they do not have internet access.

Another idea is to create a USB stick with all the photos and give it to them. Many people who are not online still have a computer or a DVD player that can read a USB stick. You can label it clearly and include a simple instruction sheet with pictures.

If you are having a wedding website, you can also print a few pages from it, like the story of your day, and send those with the photos. The most important thing is that they feel included, so a handwritten note with the photos will mean a lot.
