We had an unplugged ceremony but of course, some people still took pictures and posted it on facebook. People who were NOT in the wedding party stayed after the ceremony (at church) and took pictures of the bridal party and posted on facebook. Luckily, I had the emcee at our reception make an announcement for guests to remove their posts and I texted certain "thirsty social media people" (including my mom) to take it down.
Our pictures will be completed in about a month and I have so many family members demanding for them. Husband and I are planning to pick out a few pictures and put a slideshow. Our fear is that if we post 3 pictures, the "thirsty social media people" will re-post it themselves, as if they were the photographer :/ (that's another thing I don't get - it's not your wedding so why post these intimate moments?)
Certain guests and family members are wanting pictures from our photographer. My reasoning is that we have the photographer to take pictures for us. I'm sure there are some we can share and print for our bridal party & who were part of our wedding but I'm gettin anxious with that entitlement of, "when are pictures done? I want them now." I know there will be other extended family members who weren't part of the wedding who will also demand copies (Lord knows - i have no idea). My goal is that the only people who are getting printed copies are the wedding party (including flower girls, ring bearer) and our guests & other family members get those guest pictures (photographer went around each table).
My mom is also asking for the video and I know she'll want to post that on facebook. My mom is also photo-obsessed and is asking for all copies of our wedding pictures :/ We didn't take pictures and videos just so people on facebook can watch. That video is for us and for our memories. Maybe I'm just super old school. Also (fyi) - husband paid for both photos and video: they were not cheap at all.
Any suggestions?
