Short answer
You get a WhatsApp invite QR code from the WhatsApp app itself. Open the app, find the invite link option and choose to show it as a QR code. You can then save or share that code with your guests.
Getting a WhatsApp invite QR code is straightforward and free. Start by opening WhatsApp on your phone and going to the group chat you want guests to join. Look for the group info or invite link setting and select the option to share an invite link. Most versions of the app will then offer a QR code you can scan directly.
If you cannot find the QR option in the app, you can create a shareable invite link first. Copy that link and use a free QR code generator online to turn it into a code. Save the image to your phone so you can add it to your wedding website, e-invites or printed cards.
Keep in mind that WhatsApp QR codes and invite links can expire or be revoked if you remove people from the group. Check that the code still works before you print anything. Some couples prefer a wedding website with its own RSVP instead, as that keeps guest details in one place.
If you are unsure about privacy settings for your group, check the current WhatsApp help pages or ask a tech-savvy friend to walk you through it.
