#Hashtags

Joanie, on February 26, 2020 at 9:41 AM Posted in Planning 0 7

Hello Brides!

Help! I am an older bride so forgive my lack of knowledge. My daughter eloped a couple of years ago and I'm totally inexperienced when it comes to what's trending today. Most of my friends have been married many, many years and before hashtags became a thing.

We have created a hashtag, but I have no idea how it works and what to do with it. But I know that I want to take advantage of using one. Is this an instagram or twitter thing for the purpose of guests sharing pictures they take at the reception?

Again, please forgive my lack of knowledge.

I would appreciate any advice, instructions on how to make this work and your experiences. Smiley heart

Best,

Joanie

    Hi Joanie! Congrats on the wedding!

    Your wedding hashtag can be used on any platform of social media. Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter being the most popular. Anyone who posts a picture of your wedding day should type out the #Hashtag, like that in their post. Then when you log onto Facebook or Instagram and do a "search" in the search bar, you type in your Hashtag, and will instantly see every single post from your wedding!


    I hope this made sense! Good Luck!

    Also, I would suggest putting up cute little signs around the reception site letting your guests know to use the hashtag when posting on social media!

    Hi Bryannah!

    Thank you so very much!! I'm not as out of touch as I thought I was. Smiley shame It's a great way to see our celebration through the eyes of others by the images/photos they share.

    I love the idea of having the little signs too.

    Thirty days until we say our I Do's! Smiley ring We are both so excited!

    Again, thank you! Smiley heart

    Best,

    Joanie

    You're welcome! We bought little 3x5 cards that say "Share the Love" with a blank space to write in the hashtag. We are going to put one on each table at the reception! You're on the final stretch of your countdown! Smiley smile Smiley heart

    Basically what was said above so if people post photos on instagram they can use that hashtag and then you can search that hashtag and find all photos tagged in that. It's also just a fun little play on words. Congrats and enjoy!
