Note: The status bar at the bottom will show if the stream is publishing succesful or if there are any issues

Important Notes
  • Your guest and test event have different stream keys. Make sure you remember to change these (depedning on if you're testing or if you're broadcasting the real wedding)
  • If you experience any issues, often times a change of configuration can fix these. Test ahead of time and reach out to our team for assitance
