  • We wanted our wedding day to be about more than just the two of us – it was about bringing together our families and friends to celebrate. Instant Spotlight elevated that experience by creating a shared space for everyone to contribute and enjoy the memories. Our guests had a blast capturing not only the formal shots but also those spontaneous, hilarious instances that often go unnoticed. Esstart added an extra layer of joy to our big day, and we're truly thankful for it!

  • As a bride, my wedding day was a whirlwind of emotions and moments that seemed to pass by in a blink of an eye. Instant Spotlight app became my saving grace, allowing me to relive the magic and beauty of the day through the eyes of our loved ones. Seeing the candid shots, the tears of joy, and the laughter captured by our guests brought back the feelings that were so fleeting in the moment. It's the closest thing to bottling up the essence of your wedding and keeping it forever.
