Pixsie vs Wedibox: Do You Need a Wedding Website or Just the Photos?

Somewhere between the seating chart and the cake tasting, you realize you want your guests' photos. All of them. Not just the curated set from the photographer, but the blurry, joyful, real ones taken from the dance floor at 11pm.

Pixsie and Wedibox both solve this. But they're aiming at slightly different couples — and knowing which one you are will save you money. Let's break it down.

Pricing as of 2026; check current pricing on each site before you book.

How you pay

Wedibox sells packages. The Wedding tier runs about $49, and the All-in-One climbs to $79. Both are flat upfront fees, and a chunk of what you're paying for is the wedding-website side of the product — templates, your event details, RSVPs in some configurations. The "custom URL" you get is a slug on wedibox.com, not your own domain.

Pixsie charges only for what you use. Free for your first 50 photos, then $0.10 each, and you only pay to unlock the photos you want visible. The whole thing is capped at $20 per event. No tiers to compare, no website you may not need, no subscription quietly renewing next spring.

Features

Here's the honest divide: Wedibox is doing more than photos. If you don't yet have a wedding website and you want one bundled with your guest gallery, Wedibox is a genuinely convenient two-birds-one-stone option. That bundle is the whole pitch, and it's a fair one.

Pixsie is laser-focused on the photos. Shared gallery, free QR code, theming so it matches your wedding, video support (a video counts as 10 photos), and 365-day storage once you've unlocked. It doesn't try to be your invitation site, because most couples already have one of those — or use Instagram, or a Google Doc, or a group text.

Guest experience

Good news: both apps get this right. Neither makes your guests download an app. Wedibox and Pixsie both work over the web with a QR scan, which is exactly how it should be. Your grandmother can upload from her phone without visiting an app store.

The difference is what happens after the scan. With Pixsie, the guest lands straight on the upload page — one job, done fast. With Wedibox, the photo upload lives alongside the broader wedding-website experience, which is more to look at if all you wanted was to drop in a photo.

Who should choose what

Choose Wedibox if:

• You don't have a wedding website yet and want one bundled in
• You like the idea of QR codes and site templates in one package
• The $49 to $79 price feels fair for that all-in-one bundle

Choose Pixsie if:

• You already have a wedding website (or don't want one)
• You just want every guest photo in one place
• You want a hard $20 cap instead of a $49–$79 upfront fee
• You're done with subscriptions and per-guest pricing

The honest take

Wedibox is a solid product, and the bundle is real value if you actually need the website. There's something genuinely nice about handling invitations and guest photos in one tool, and for couples starting from scratch, that convenience can be worth $49.

But a lot of couples already have the website handled. If that's you, you'd be paying $49 to $79 for a feature you'll never open — when the part you want, the photos, is the part Pixsie does for at most $20. Stay under 50 photos and it's free. Go big and it's twenty bucks for unlimited uploads and a year of storage. That's a meaningful gap when the rest of the wedding is doing its level best to empty your account.

So the question isn't really "which app is better." It's "do I need a wedding website?" If yes, Wedibox's bundle makes sense. If you just want the photos, Pixsie is the cheaper, simpler tool built for exactly that.
