I am 52 years old, and a mother and grandmother. My daughter is 29, and she has a 3-year old daughter whom I love more than life itself. So, 3 years ago I became a grandma, and despite my worries about being old, it's the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Now, I am with the love of my life and about to get married for the first time!! I am from the SF Bay Area (all my life) and work as a legal secretary for the past 30+ years.

Happily married 🎉

Hi Blanca! Thanks, and congratulations to you too! I'm not super tech savvy, but I believe the hashtag is so that if your guests take photos on their phones during your reception, if they label them under your hashtag, then you can gather all photos taken very easily. I think most people are putting their hashtag on their wedding website, and possibly on their invitations. I haven't decided if we're doing that yet. A lot of our guests will be older, and not necessarily tech savvy. So, I'm not sure we need one yet. I'm sorry I'm not more savvy about this stuff. I hope that helps a little. Try searching the forums on this topic. I know there are a lot of people out there that know more than I do. :)
