What Dots. Memories is built for

Dots focuses on a single job — a standalone shared photo/video album, including non-event albums like trips or family.1 Brunchie delivers that same shared-album moment as one tab inside the room where the whole event already lives.

Why couples choose Brunchie

  1. No photo or guest caps. Brunchie's photobooth is free for every guest with no per-event upgrade — see Free forever.
  2. You want guests to add photos without downloading an app. They open the hangout link in a browser and post photos, videos, voice memos, and boomerangs. See photobooth.
  3. You want photos in the same room as everything else — RSVPs, seating, expenses, and day-of check-in — instead of a separate app for each job.
  4. You want one shared feed for the whole celebration rather than a per-event album you buy up by capacity.
