What to Avoid

Here are some tips on what you should avoid when creating your hashtag for your big day:

  • Try to avoid using a hashtag that would cause an easy misspelling, For example #SophiaandMark, the double a at the end of “Sophia” plus “and” has the potential to cause a misunderstanding.
  • To help the readability of your hashtag, use capital letters for each word.
  • Try to avoid making it super long, it will be tedious for your guests to type out.
  • When choosing your wedding hashtag, make sure you don’t choose something that is incredibly common and popular. It will cause your wedding photos to be drowned in hundreds of others who used the same hashtag.
  • Check out your hashtag beforehand to make sure you do not hijack someone else’s unique hashtag, add an extra number or letter to avoid this.
  • Don’t overthink it! If you spend too much time thinking about your hashtag, you will waste precious time planning for more important things in your wedding.
