Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a wedding hashtag not cliché?
A non-cliché hashtag uses your specific names blended together or a clever surname pun rather than generic phrases. #HappilyEverAfter has 9M posts; #WrightWhereWeBelong or #MeetTheDayas has 0 posts.
How long should a wedding hashtag be?
Keep it under 20 characters. The sweet spot is 12 to 16 characters (e.g. #MeetTheDayas or #NateAndClaraAtx). It’s easy for guests to remember and fast to type.
How do I know if my wedding hashtag is already taken?
Search for the hashtag under Instagram’s 'Tags' tab. If 0 to 50 posts appear, it’s safe to claim. If thousands of photos appear, add your wedding city or year to create a clean, unclaimed tag.
