Frequently asked questions

What does Wedding Display show?

Welcome signs with your names and venue, a live countdown to the ceremony, large table numbers, a photo slideshow, ten animated greeting cards, calm ambient scenes and full-screen celebration effects - all on the TV, through your Apple TV.

How do I set it up?

Choose a theme, add your names, date and venue, and pick what to show. It takes about two minutes, and the Siri Remote is all you need.

Which welcome signs are included?

Six ready-made screens: Welcome to Our Wedding, Ceremony Starting, Reception, Dinner Time, Dance Floor Open and Thank You. Each shows your names and venue.

How does the countdown work?

It counts the days, hours, minutes and seconds until the ceremony, using the date and time you entered. It is a good fit for cocktail hour or the minutes before the ceremony starts.

Which table numbers can I show?

Any number from 1 to 99, as a large, elegant table card. You can add an optional table name such as "Family Table" or "Rose Garden".

How do I show our photos?

Open Photo Slideshow, pick photos from your library and start the show. Choose one of six frame styles and six transitions; the photos move with a smooth Ken Burns effect and your names appear on every slide.

Can the screen change on its own during the day?

Yes. Plan the day once in the day-of timeline: welcome, ceremony, dinner and dancing switch automatically at the times you set, each with its own sign or countdown.

What are celebration effects?

Full-screen effects for the big moments - the toast, the first dance, the cake cutting, the grand exit and more. They look great in photos and video.

Which themes are there?

Eight: Rose Garden, Golden Hour, Starlit Night, Cherry Blossom, Ocean Breeze, Autumn Romance, Winter Wonderland and Lavender Dreams. Each has its own colors and gentle particles - petals, sparkles, bubbles, leaves or snow - and the particles can be turned off for a clean look.

Will the TV go to sleep during the reception?

No. The screen stays awake while a sign, countdown or slideshow is on display.

Is it only for weddings?

It is made for weddings, and it works just as well for rehearsal dinners, engagement parties, bridal showers, anniversaries and vow renewals. Wedding planners and venues use it too.

Which Apple TV do I need?

Any Apple TV running tvOS 17 or later.
