Snapchat Filter Help

Kelsie, on August 27, 2019 at 3:55 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 3

For those of you who have used Snapchat geofilters for your wedding, or even other events, I'm wondering how accurate their map is when deciding where to apply the filter?

I did one a few years ago for my cousin's wedding, but that was when it was free to upload your own designs, so I was able to do a wide range.

On the Snapchat map for my venue, it has a little building, which would be my venue, but it looks like it's farther away from the road than it actually is. I just don't want to spend a ton of money making sure the filter will be in the range, but I also don't want it to end up not being in most areas of the venue, haha.

Anyone have any experiences to put my mind at ease?

    We did a very precise area to keep it cheaper. Originally I was like “I’ll outline a 5 miles radius” hahahaha noooo.

    So the map is accurate but the issue is sometimes the addresses and actual locations don’t line up. If you type in your venues address and it looks significantly further from the actual location, email support before placing your order! We did this for our venue because there was a ton of construction around our venue during our wedding and they were able to update the SnapMap before our wedding.

    Yeah, it gets really expensive really quick. And honestly, it's not a necessity so if I can't get it at a cheap price, I would just rather not get it.

    But that's a good idea. My wedding is Saturday, so not sure if that's enough time for them to get back to me, but I could try asking before just to see if I have any luck!

    Hey Kelsie!!

    Have you reached out to Snapchat directly to query this? It sounds like it will be the most helpful thing that you can do at this point.

    Can you believe that your wedding is so soon?
