Tips for a hashtag guests actually use

  • Capitalize each word (#HappilyEverRivera) so it's easy to read and screen readers can say it.
  • Keep it under about 20 characters if you can. Long hashtags get typed wrong.
  • Avoid letters that blur together: double letters and names ending and starting with the same letter.
  • Search it on Instagram and TikTok before printing it anywhere.
  • Put it where guests look: the welcome sign, the bar and the table numbers.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a wedding hashtag?

Pick one that's short, easy to spell after a glass of champagne, and unique to you. Say it out loud, check it doesn't accidentally spell another word when the letters run together, and search it on Instagram to make sure nobody else has used it.

Should a wedding hashtag include the year?

Adding the year (or the last two digits) is the easiest way to make a common hashtag like #TheRiveras unique. It also helps you find your photos years later.

Where should we display our wedding hashtag?

On your wedding website, save-the-dates or invitations, a welcome sign, table cards and the bar. Ask your DJ or MC to mention it once during the reception.

Can we use more than one hashtag?

You can, but one main hashtag works best so all your guests' photos end up in one place. Use a second one only for a separate event, like the bachelor or bachelorette party.

Do we have to use a hashtag at all?

No. Hashtags are optional. Some couples prefer a shared photo album link or ask guests to keep phones away during the ceremony.
