Each guest scans it and leaves you a voice message from their own phone: a memory, a wish, a laugh you’ll replay in ten years. No app, no account, no phone to rent. [Create my audio guest book](https://app.film36.app/commencer?offre=livredor&format=audio) [See how it works](#comment) - €19.90 once, for the whole wedding - No app or account - Works with no signal - Kept for 12 months ![The day after the wedding, the couple burst out laughing on their couch as they listen to their guests’ messages](https://film36.app/_astro/livre-dor-audio-poster-en.BCUTH8Ej_Z26enQc.jpg) ## One rotary phone serves one guest at a time The vintage phone is lovely. But it has one handset, in one spot, often right next to the music. ### The rented phone: the charm of the handset, one guest at a time While one person talks, the others wait. At cocktail hour a line forms; later, the dance floor drowns out the voices. Plenty of guests give up. ### The QR code: everyone speaks when they want, away from the noise Every guest has a phone in their pocket. They step outside for two minutes, during dessert or the next morning, and talk to you in peace. A hundred guests can record at the same time. [Want the handset ritual back? The tablet kiosk gives you the same thing. See below.](#borne) ## How an audio guest book works from a guest’s own phone Thirty seconds, nothing to install, no account. This is exactly what your guests see. 1. ![The A4 poster to print: “Leave us a message”, with the guest book QR code](https://film36.app/_astro/affiche-qr.B6S6TP9g_PR72i.png) ### 1Scan the QR code, or open the link The QR code is on the poster and the table cards, in the style of your wedding. Everyone else gets the link with a ready-made message. It all opens in the browser, no app. - QR code - Text - WhatsApp - Email - Copy link 2. ![The guest book card on a guest’s page, with the button “Hear the welcome message from Emma & Tom”](https://film36.app/_astro/invite-carte.Cur7PqjL_Z1muACa.png) ### 2Hear your welcome message, only if they want to You record a short welcome, up to 30 seconds. Guests play it with one tap, or skip straight to their own message: nothing ever plays on its own. 3. ![Recording in progress: the counter at 0:12 of 2:00, the waveform of the voice and the stop button](https://film36.app/_astro/enregistrement.ByAeF3a-_1TqRP6.png) ### 3Speak after the beep, listen back, send A beep, and they’re on: up to 2 minutes. For the shy ones, an idea appears (“Your favorite memory with them”) and changes with a tap. They listen back, start again if they like, then send. ![A guest’s arrival: “You’re invited to the guest book, Emma & Tom”, and the first name to type](https://film36.app/_astro/invite-arrivee.B88bPd_Y_1KPUaI.png) ![The final screen: “Thank you! Emma & Tom will listen to it soon.”](https://film36.app/_astro/merci.DTf4AQ8P_Z1RFYuT.png) A guest can’t make it? They leave their message from home, through the same link, or send a voice memo already recorded on their phone. ## No signal at the venue? The message waits inside the phone Castles, barns, country estates: the signal is often weak, and that is exactly where messages usually get lost. Here, nothing is lost. The recorded message is kept in the guest’s phone. It sends itself as soon as the signal is back: in the car, at the hotel, or on their next visit to the page. The guest doesn’t have to do anything. ![The screen “Your message is saved: it will be sent as soon as you’re back online.”](https://film36.app/_astro/sans-reseau.BRnqMTRi_ZuIxIh.png) ![The kiosk on a tablet: “Leave Emma & Tom a message”, with one big Voice message button](https://film36.app/_astro/borne.7mH9-pSy_8v7DX.png) ## Grandparents without a smartphone? Put a tablet at the bar For guests without a smartphone, or to bring back the ritual of the phone: set a tablet at the entrance or the bar. Guests record one after another, the first name is optional, and a 4-digit code stops anyone leaving the kiosk by mistake. - The same guest book: kiosk messages arrive with all the others. - With no signal, messages wait in the tablet. - No hardware to hire: your tablet, or a friend’s. ## After the wedding: play every message, keep every file Everything lands in your space as it happens on the day. The next morning, you have a real guest book to leaf through. ![The couple’s space: “Messages”, a gallery of cards with each guest’s initial, first name and the waveform of their message](https://film36.app/_astro/mur-messages.C2nwtiVg_Z1XBSWq.png) ### All your messages in one gallery, in your wedding’s style One card per guest, with their first name, the time of their message and the waveform of their voice. Search a name, sort, hide: it’s all there. ### “Play all”, like turning the pages One tap and the messages play one after another, first to last. The best time to hear them: together, the next morning. ### Download each message, named after the guest Ordinary audio files named like “2026-06-12 21h42 - Sophie”: one by one or all at once. Keep them, edit them into a film, burn them. ### 12 months to collect everything Rentals often send your messages back weeks after the event, on a USB stick or a disc. Here you can listen the next morning, and everything stays online for a year. We warn you before anything is erased. ## Privacy: only you hear the messages A guest book is personal. By default, nobody but the couple listens. - Guests know before they record that only the couple will hear their message. - You can share the messages with your guests, or play them on the evening slideshow, but only if you choose to. - Hide any message in one click. - An optional 4-digit code protects the kiosk. - Messages are stored in the European Union, in Ireland: no ads, no resale, no AI training. ![The guest book settings: your greeting, “Try it”, kiosk mode, and the options to share messages or play them on the slideshow](https://film36.app/_astro/reglages.DoqnXDMI_Z8UTvC.png) ## What an audio guest book costs: phone rental vs a QR code Two ways to collect your guests’ voices.

No. The QR code opens a page in the phone’s browser, on iPhone and Android. No app, no account: a first name is enough. ### Can guests who can’t come leave a message? Yes. The link works from anywhere, before, during or after the wedding, for 12 months. A cousin abroad or a grandmother who stayed home can still speak to you. ### How long can each message be, and how many can we get? Each message can last up to 2 minutes, and you can receive up to 500. Each guest keeps a single message: recording a new one replaces the previous one. ### What if there’s no signal at the venue? The message is kept in the guest’s phone and sent as soon as the signal returns. On the kiosk, messages wait in the tablet. ### Who can hear the messages? By default, only the couple. You can choose to share them with your guests or play them on the evening slideshow; guests are told before they record. ### Can guests record after the wedding? Yes, for 12 months, through the same QR code or link. ### How long are the recordings kept? For 12 months. We email you 7 days and again 2 days before anything is erased, so you can download everything first. ### How do we get the files? Every message downloads as an ordinary audio file named after the date, the time and the guest, one by one or all together. You can copy them to a USB stick, burn them, or add them to your wedding film. ### Do we still need to rent a phone? No. If you love the look, keep a vintage phone as a prop for photos: the QR code and the kiosk tablet do the recording. ### Can we add video messages? Yes, as an option: each guest chooses voice or video. Audio and video together cost €24.90. ## Their voices, in ten years Create your audio guest book in two minutes, record your welcome message, and try it as a guest before you pay.
