If you are on social media, you know the popularity of hashtags. They are everywhere and allow us to not only easily find topics we are interested in but also allow us to express our feelings and excitement when we post on social media platforms. 

Wedding hashtags have become increasingly popular over the years, and it seems like everyone has one. The ideas are endless, from classic hashtags such as #HappilyHitched and #FinallyMyForever to hashtags that make us laugh, such as #JamaicanMeAWallace and #One ExpensiveParty.

Why Have A Wedding Hashtag?

Hashtags allow you and your partner to not only showcase your relationship through a clever slogan but also provide you with a way to keep your wedding posts organized on social media. Of course, everyone will be posting photos from the wedding. 

Instead of finding each family or friend’s post of your wedding, you can have them use your hashtag and easily search through all the photos at once.

This “virtual” wedding album allows you to have photographs from different guest perspectives and is easy to share with friends and family. 

How To Create An Awesome Wedding Hashtag

The first step in creating the best wedding hashtag for you and your significant other is to understand what goals you have for your wedding hashtag. For example, do you want something classic, funny, or catchy?

Since wedding hashtags have become increasingly popular, you can now use online wedding hashtag generator tools to help you! Check out the following site that offers 50 free examples: https://weddinggenerator.bigbangram.com/.

When thinking about what to include in your wedding hashtag, write out a list of all the information about you and your partner that comes to mind. Include the following: the date of your wedding, location, name of the venue, your first and last names, and your first and last names. You can also ask friends and family for ideas of what to include on your list of ideas.

Remember, your hashtag needs to fit on wedding signs easily, and the longer your hashtag is, the more likely people to make a typo on social media posts. Think simple and easy!

Where To Use Your Wedding Hashtag

You can use your wedding hashtag on everything! Think about starting to use it on your wedding announcements. You can even add it to your wedding website.

At the wedding venue, display the hashtag in different places. For example, if you have a photo booth, this is a great location to display the hashtag and also include it near the front entry. 

Today, many of your younger guests will know the wedding hashtag before arriving at the event. However, remember that you may have guests who don’t know what a wedding hashtag is. Therefore, it’s important to explain this on either your wedding website or leave a card at each guest’s table during the reception.

Conclusion

Wedding hashtags are fantastic for couples who are active on social media and want pictures of their wedding shared. If you are concerned about too many photos from your day being shared with the rest of the Internet, a wedding hashtag may not be for you. There are also “unplugged weddings” where the married couple asks guests not to take pictures and instead lets the photographer do all the work.
