Your wedding day is a celebration of love, joy, and unforgettable moments. Once your wedding gallery has been delivered, preserving those memories becomes a priority. Here’s a step-by-step guide to saving, downloading, and printing your wedding photos using Pic-Time, along with tips on how to create beautiful prints using Pic-Time or other trusted printing sources.
Saving and Downloading Your Wedding Photos
Access Your Gallery

Enter your unique password if prompted.
Browse and Select Your Favorite Photos
Take your time to explore the gallery and relive the magic of your day.
Use the “Heart” or “Favorite” feature to mark the images you love the most for easy access later.
Download Options
Look for the “Download” button, typically located at the top or side of the gallery.
Choose your preferred download resolution:

To ensure your memories are safe, create multiple backups:
