Birthday wishes, said out loud.

A milestone 30th, a surprise 50th, Grandpa's 80th — guests scan a code or tap a link, record a short message on their own phone, and every wish lands in one gallery, named and dated.

FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME · TEN MINUTES TO SET UP

celebrating Maya turns 30

Made for a room full of people with something to say.

Great for surprises

Send the link to friends and family ahead of time. Messages collect quietly in your gallery before the party even starts.

Everyone far away, too

The cousin overseas and the college roommate who couldn't fly in can record from wherever they are.

Any age, any party

From a backyard 40th to an 80th at a restaurant — if the guests have phones, they can leave a message.

What your guests could scan.

The line above the name, the name, and the message to guests are all yours to write — plus your own colors and photo. A few starting points:

What happens at your event.

Your event is ready and the code is on the tables. From here, your guests do the rest — you don't have to do a thing until you want to watch.

01

Guests scan or tap

They scan the code on the table or tap the link you texted or emailed. The recording page opens right in their browser — no app, no login.

02

They record

They type their name, the front camera opens, a short countdown runs, and they've got up to 60 seconds to say their piece.

03

They send it

One tap sends the clip straight to your gallery, their name attached automatically.

04

You keep every one

Messages show up in your gallery as they come in. Download them all whenever you're ready — a highlight reel is on the way.

Good to know.

Can we collect messages before a surprise party?

Yes. Share the text or email link with guests early — each clip shows up in your gallery as it's sent, so you can have them ready to share at the party.

Can kids leave a message?

Yes, on any phone with a camera. Younger kids can record with a parent on the parent's phone.

How do I get the videos afterward?

Every clip is in your host gallery with the guest's name and time attached. Download them all whenever you're ready.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. They scan the QR code, tap a text link, or open an email link and the recording page opens in their phone's browser. No app, no login.

How much does it cost?

VideoWishes is free for a limited time while we launch.
