Question on bloggin, online proofing, online slideshows

I was wondering if you share these with the family and friends as well as the bride and groom and how do you go about getting their email address. Do you just send a link the the bride and groom and let them email it on or do you take the iniative at the wedding to get other guests interested in viewing these types of things. What is your approach to letting them in on it?

I just send the info. to the B&G and they usually e-mail it to everyone.

That's a good idea and a non-intrusive approach - I was thinking it may not reach some of the guests that may want to "buy" prints - if they aren't close family.

When we show a slideshow at the wedding we stick some business cards upside down at the side of the laptop with a sticker on the back as per the pic below.

Some people say its not right to hand cards out at weddings but I think doing it this way with the lead being that your telling the guests where to go to see the photos they are all interested in I don't think its wrong at all. Theres always lots of them get picked up and then we see a nice increase in our website and blog traffic for the following week.

We get asked for cards during the day by people anyway, so its nice to give them access to them at a time when were not busy taking photographs.
