Absolutely all pictures need to be moderated and approved before being displayed.
All commercial products that offer this based on a Twitter feed hashtag for example have an approval process built in to them.
Once someone realises, you've lost control of it! And of course, anyone can upload any photo already on their phone (and it looks pretty anonymous too...)

Don’t worry about inappropriate photos showing live as they can be held back until they are checked by us.
So looks like that's covered...

I'm currently pondering making one of these things myself (yuh like I've not got enough side projects going on) & I've already worked out how moderation will work via the admin interface.
The hardest part for me anyway will be making the device side of it look nice. Ie what the guests see.
The trick is simply not just to slideshow the uploaded photos. Nope they go to a holding folder on the box file system. The admin interface instigates a file move once the pics are approved. Simple

And while I appreciate the ease with which this may work, I'm still sceptical.
And probably a Luddite, too.

With a QR code for connecting to the WiFi (worked for ages on Android, now works on iOS 11 too), and another for the upload URL?

I'm still confused why you want to work with a system that requires the customer to connect to your own wi-fi. My fear is that the uptake will be low.
Let's not forget that your wi-fi doesn't provide them with any internet access, so you'll soon have people complaining that you've broken their phone because their Facebook doesn't refresh...
For me, it would be logical to make sense of an existing platform such as Instagram or Twitter. Many brides already create a hashtag for the day where their friends can upload photos to Instagram. You just ride off the back of that.
The fact you need written instructions concerns me - whereas 'Instagram a photo with hash tag daveandjennywedding' is all that's required, and can be easily announced.
I've also heard that sites like WedPics.com don't actually get much response on the day itself - although that's anecdotal. But worth checking out the take up of such a service at a wedding, as it may be an indicator of the success of this type of service.
I hate being negative about this great concept, but when you charge for a service, brides build a level of expectation, and I fear they would be disappointed to receive 3 photos at the end of it...
