Short answer
Create a QR code that links to your Google Calendar event. Guests can scan it to add the wedding details straight to their own calendar app.
Start by setting up your wedding event in Google Calendar. Add the date, time, venue address and any notes about dress code or timings. Make sure the event is set to 'public' or that the link can be shared with anyone. You can then copy the event link from Google Calendar.
Next, use a free QR code generator to turn that link into a scannable image. Choose a design that fits your invitation style. Download the image and test it by scanning with your own phone. You should see the event details appear and be able to add it to your calendar.
When you add the QR code to your invitation, label it clearly. Something like 'Scan to save the date' or 'Add to your calendar' works well. Guests can then scan it at any time before the wedding. This is especially helpful for guests who keep their schedules in a digital calendar.
If you are using a UK wedding website service, check whether it already offers a calendar feature. Some sites let you add events directly without needing a separate QR code. If you do use a QR code, remember to keep the event details up to date if anything changes.
