Camera opens
The Fête camera loads in the phone browser. iPhone, Android, no install. They're in.
Photo or short video
Guests take a photo, record a short clip, or leave a private video message for the host.
Into the gallery
Every upload lands in your private gallery, ready to feature, moderate, or hold back for the next-day reveal.
More than a photo camera
Photos, video clips, and the messages that wouldn't fit in a photo.
Most party camera apps stop at photos. Fête also lets guests record short video clips and leave private video messages, so the night is captured with sound and movement, not just stills.
Speeches, the toast, the joke that landed, the moment someone walked in. The bits a still photo can't hold.
Public video clipsShort 15 to 30 second clips of the dancefloor, candle moments, big reveals and crowd reactions, straight into the public party gallery.
Private video messagesVisible only to the host. Birthday messages, surprise shoutouts, notes from people who couldn't make it.
Plays in the lightboxTap any video in the gallery to play, swipe to the next moment. Clean and minimal, no system clutter.
Keep control of what appears
You decide what becomes part of the party memory.
Approve before publicNothing hits the live wall or public gallery until you say so. Reject the photos that shouldn't be there.
Feature the best momentsPin your favourites so they sit at the top of the gallery and the front of the live wall.
Release when readyLive during the night, a next-day gallery reveal, or hold it back until you've curated. Your call.
Download everything in one goPull the full party gallery at original quality, every photo and every video, ready to keep or repost.
Better than the other party-camera options
What people usually try, and what they miss.
Most hosts have tried at least one of these. Here's how they stack up.
POV-style camera apps
The problem: Guests have to install the app and create an account. No moderation, no live wall, no organiser control. Photos can disappear after a set window or stay locked to the app.
Disposable + Polaroid cameras
The problem: 20 to 27 shots per camera, no video, no preview, half get forgotten on the table. You pay per shot, then again to develop, then wait two weeks to see if anything came out.
Group iMessage or WhatsApp
The problem: Photos get compressed, scattered across hundreds of messages, lost in the scroll. No video gallery, no moderation, no clean way to download everything in one go.
Fête party camera app
The fix: One QR. Every phone. Photos and video clips in one private gallery. Moderation, live wall, public clips, private messages, full original-quality download. No guest app, no accounts, no shot limits inside your tier.
Party camera app FAQ
The questions hosts ask before setting up.
What is a party camera app?
A party camera app turns every guest's phone into a shared camera for the night. Instead of buying disposables or renting a photo booth, guests use the phones already in their pockets and everything lands in one private gallery.
Do guests have to download an app?
No. Fête is the party camera app on the organiser side. Guests scan a QR, the camera opens in their browser, and they start uploading. No install, no account, no friction.
Is this like POV?
Similar idea, different product. Fête works for the same crowd but adds organiser moderation, a live photo wall, public video clips, private video messages, and a full-quality gallery download. Guests do not need to install anything.
Can guests record video at the party?
Yes. Short video clips for the public gallery, plus private video messages visible only to the host. Perfect for shoutouts, surprise messages and dancefloor moments.
Can I moderate party photos before they go live?
Yes. You decide whether uploads appear instantly, after approval, or only when you release the full gallery the next day.
Is this better than disposable cameras?
For most parties, yes. See how Fête compares to disposable cameras in detail.
Will this work for a hen do, stag do or house party?
Yes. Hen and stag dos, house parties, milestone birthdays, garden parties, club nights and after-parties are exactly what Fête is built for.
