How to pick a good wedding hashtag
- Keep it short. Guests type it on a phone after a few drinks. Under 25 characters is ideal.
- Make it easy to spell. Avoid double letters across word breaks, such as "LoveEver", which people misread.
- Check it is free. Search it on Instagram and TikTok. Common name pairs are often taken, so add the year or the place.
- Capitalize each word. #SaraAndTomSayIDo is far easier to read than #saraandtomsayido, and screen readers handle it better.
- Use one hashtag. Pick one for the whole weekend so every photo lands in the same place.
Where to show it over a destination wedding weekend
Put it on your wedding website and your guest page, the welcome bag note, the welcome dinner tables and the bar. Ask your planner or a friend to save the photos from the hashtag the week after.
Questions
How do I make a unique wedding hashtag?
Combine your first names, your new or combined last name, the year and your destination, then search the result on Instagram and TikTok. If people already use it, add the year or the place.
Should a wedding hashtag include the year?
Adding the year (or just the last two digits) is the easiest way to make a common name combination unique, and it helps you find your photos years later.
Where should we put our wedding hashtag?
On your wedding website, the guest page, welcome bag notes, table signs, the bar and the photo booth. Mention it once in a welcome speech too.
Do we need a wedding hashtag at all?
No, but it makes it easy to collect guest photos from every phone in one place, especially over a destination wedding weekend with lots of events.
