Choose the Right Size Choosing the correct QR code size really matters, as a small design can make it difficult to scan, while large QR codes can overpower other designs. The best way to embed a QR code is to follow a 10:1 rule, which means the ideal minimum size of a QR code is equal to the scanning distance divided by 10.

• Use High Contrast Colors

Use high-contrast colors with a light background to ensure your QR codes are properly visible. Avoid using colors that may hide the QR codes, which may cause scanning issues.

• Add a Proper CTA

CTAs are essential as they guide them to take further action. The CTAs such as:

• Scan to Register
• View Wedding Details
• Check Out Our Love Story

Adding these types of CTAs may increase more scans than those mentioned without proper action words.

• Test the QR Code Before Printing

Before finalizing your wedding invitations, test the QR code on multiple devices to ensure it scans properly and directs properly to the correct details as you want.

• Customize to Match Your Theme

To make your QR codes look more stylish, try customizing their colors, adding a logo, name, or some other elements that can enhance the overall look of your QR codes. Doing this makes your QR code wedding invitation more aesthetic. Read More:
