Building Your Template Step by Step
1. Set the Background
Start with the background — it sets the foundation for your design.
- Choose a solid color, or
- Upload a background image
2. Add Photo Slots
Add the photo slots where guest photos will appear.
- Decide how many photos per session
- Position and size each slot
- Choose rectangle or circle shapes
3. Add Text
Layer in text elements for event info, branding, or fun messages.
- Event title and date
- Your business name or logo text
- Hashtags or taglines
4. Add Images and Graphics
Drop in logos, borders, and decorative elements.
5. Arrange Layers
Make sure everything is in the right order — background at the bottom, photos in the middle, text and branding on top.
6. Preview and Save
Preview your template with sample photos to see how it looks in action. Save when you're happy.
Design Best Practices
- Start with the photo slots — They're the most important element. Build everything else around them.
- Use a consistent color palette — 2–3 colors max for a clean look
- Leave breathing room — White space (or any empty space) makes designs look more professional
- Think about the guest — The photo should be the hero. Everything else supports it.
Save and Use
Once saved, your custom template appears alongside built-in templates when selecting a template for an event. You can use it across multiple events.
