    We didn't have one, but I can see how it would be an easy way to gather everyone's pics.

    I'll try my best! I'll keep an eye out for your post asking for help - don't forget to include as much detail as possible in case your last name will be hard to put into one.

    Provide: Your first and last name, their first and last name, let us know if you are taking theirs, or opposite, or keeping your own last names, date of wedding, where, theme, common interests, how you met, etc. Anything that you would be wanting a hashtag to possibly have. I know that some people care more about a hashtag having to do with a hobby over the last name.

    We did not do a hashtag. We actually didn’t post any pictures on social media, only on our website since we bought the domain

    Yes we will. Not 100% sure what it will be yet. So far all engagement and wedding planning related items have been #greenlybirdwedding with a green bird emoticon

    Nope. We aren't really avid social media users, and the majority of our guests aren't either.

    Yes we will be having one. Hard to find one though, I tried the hashtag generator for free then wedding hashers keeps popping on my feed to pay $ and they will make it for you.

    Neither myself or my FH has Instagram so not sure if it's worth signing up for it, i don't even know how it works to be honest. I know my cousin's use it and couldn't they just send me the pics they take?

    Yup! It's not a witty or funny hashtag - We just wanted something easy for our guests to remember and use.

    We're thinking about it. We also want an unplugged ceremony so we're not sure if it'll be worth it to have a hashtag solely for the reception

    Yup! Although my FH bugs me about it being a millennial thing - it's what I am! (He is too but barely, his generation consider them to be "cuspers" or whatever.)

    #LoveIsDollYouNeed (Doll is going to be my last name hehe)

    We are, mostly because everyone expected us to have one. It's also kind of fun to use it for other little things - we made tshirts for our bridal party, that kind of thing.

    I don’t think so. Aren’t they only for Instagram? If so, neither of us have one

    No hashtag for us. We only had forty guests so it was easy to ask the people who took photos to forward them to us.

    YES!!!

    We already have ours picked and I have been using it for wedding prep posts already and have it listed on our website.

    I don'y know why, but I am very excited about this trend.
