# The whole family on one wall at last.

Category: Keepsakes & memories

Give the whole family one live wall for reunion photos, memories, and messages—no app, no account, joinable by every generation.

## What this solves

Reunions scatter their own record—photos in a dozen phones, stories told once at one table. A live family wall gathers it all while everyone is still in the same room.

Relatives join from their phones and post today's photographs next to scanned ones from decades back, with the stories attached. The wall runs on a TV through the gathering, gives every table something to point at, and brings the family's memories together for the day.

## Why GuestWalls fits this event

- **Every generation can join:** If a relative can open a link and type, they can post. There are no downloads or guest accounts; only host-enabled rooms ask for an event password.
- **Stories stay with pictures:** The photo of the old farmhouse arrives with the story of the summer it burned—together, where they belong.
- **One shared experience:** Throughout the gathering, the family's photos and memories appear together in one place for everyone to enjoy.

## Setup

1. **Open the wall early.** Share the code in the family group chat before the reunion so photos start arriving in advance.
2. **Run it on the biggest TV.** Let the collage rotate during the gathering—it does the icebreaking for you.
3. **Replay before goodbye.** End the reunion by replaying the wall while everyone is still together to see it.

## Prompts for guests

Reunion walls work best when you send the prompts to the group chat a week early:

- “Post the oldest photograph you have of this family.”
- “Who is in this picture, and what happened next?”
- “A story about someone who is not here anymore.”
- “The family recipe you actually make.”
- “Post a photo of the house you grew up in.”

## Frequently asked questions

### Can family members abroad take part?

Yes. Anyone with the link can post from anywhere, and their messages appear at the reunion live.

### How do old family photos get in?

Photograph the print with a phone and upload it with a message about where and when it was taken.

### Do we need special equipment?

Any TV or projector connected to a browser can show the wall. Guests use their own phones.

### What happens to the photos afterwards?

The wall stays available to replay after the event, so the family can revisit the collection.

## Product boundaries

GuestWalls accepts posts directly through an event link or code; it does not aggregate public hashtag posts. Guests use a browser and do not create accounts. The venue display needs an internet-connected computer and screen. For product-wide privacy, retention, availability, and recommendation details, read https://guestwalls.com/index.md.
