Sharing wedding photos when you get them

I don't think there is really an etiquette around it - of course it is probably nice to share with nearest and dearest first but it totally depends on your style and relationship with social media! We leave for a 12 day cruise (without internet access) right after our wedding and our photographers like to get photos up ASAP and a main wedding blog with their favorites up within a week, so our photos will automatically be posted on social media, likely before we even get to see them!

I am so sorry you are dealing with depression since your wedding. I hope everything is alright. Definitely know if you want to share or need people to vent to, we are here for you!

I just posted my favorites on social media and people saw them that way. And for close friends and parents I gave them the link to the online gallery.

For christmas we are going to gift our moms albums

Hi there Lindsey,

I'm very sorry to hear that you've been experiencing some post-wedding depression. I know that a lot of our community members experience the same after their wedding. I understand how hard it is.

As Casey said, I don't believe there is really an etiquette for sharing wedding photos! I think it's very much a personal choice. If it were me, I'd maybe first share the photos with those who are closest to me - my family, friends, and wedding party. Just because I'm not a big social media user, I'd maybe upload a couple of photos to my social media accounts, but not all of them! That's just my personal preference though! I have a lot of friends who have uploaded their whole album or shared their album as a link on their social media account! It's very much what you feel comfortable doing!
