Wedding photo bingo
Photo bingo is one of the best wedding reception games. Instead of numbers, the bingo cards show photos: the couple as babies, their first date, the hen and stag party, aunts and uncles. With PhotoBingo you make the game in fifteen minutes, with your own photos.

Why photo bingo works at a wedding
It gets guests talking. Everyone plays along, from kids to grandparents, and every photo brings out a story. It’s ideal between dinner and the party, or as a game for the best man, maid of honour or MC.
Show a wedding photo as the opening image before the draw starts, and put a photo of the couple in the middle of every card so everyone starts with one square.
How it works
- Upload your photos. They stay on your own computer and are never uploaded.
- Choose the card size (3 × 3, 4 × 4 or 5 × 5), the number of cards (up to 200) and an optional free space or start photo in the middle.
- Download the unique bingo cards as a PDF and print them on A4 or US Letter.
- Put the draw screen on the TV or projector and draw the photos one by one, with suspense and sound.
- Someone shouts “bingo!”? Type in the card number and see instantly if it’s right.
Tips for the wedding
- Ask family and friends for old photos of the couple in advance.
- Play a few line rounds first, then the full card, with a small prize per round.
- Print one card per guest or per table. You can make up to 200 unique cards.
- Let the MC or a witness run the draw on the TV or projector.

Frequently asked questions
How long does wedding photo bingo take?
Plan 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the number of photos and rounds. A few line rounds plus a full-card round make a nice part of the programme.
What is photo bingo?
Photo bingo is bingo with pictures instead of numbers. Each player gets a card with photos, for example of the birthday person, the couple or colleagues. The photos are drawn one by one; the first to complete a line or a full card shouts bingo.
How many photos do I need?
At least 9 for a 3 × 3 card, 16 for 4 × 4 and 25 for 5 × 5. More photos make the cards more varied and the game more exciting. For a group of 20 to 40 players, 30 to 50 photos is ideal.
Are all bingo cards different?
Yes. PhotoBingo makes every card unique and gives it a card number, so you can check a winner in seconds.
Are my photos uploaded to the internet?
No. PhotoBingo runs in your browser and your photos stay on your own computer. They are not sent to a server.
Do I need to install an app?
No. PhotoBingo works in the browser on a laptop or computer. You only need a printer for the cards and a TV or projector for the draw screen (a laptop screen works too).
