Should we put the year or date in our hashtag?

A year (or date like 61427) is the easiest way to make a common-name hashtag unique, and it doubles as a keepsake. The tradeoff is a little length. The generator produces both dated and undated variants so you can compare them side by side.

How do we check nobody else is using our hashtag?

Search it on Instagram and TikTok before you print it anywhere. If it is empty or dormant, it is yours. If another couple used it recently, pick a variant — adding your year, a middle name, or a location usually resolves it instantly.

Where should we use the hashtag?

Anywhere guests' phones will be: save-the-dates, the invitation suite, the wedding website, a sign near the bar or photo area, and table cards. Announce it once during the reception and the photos will follow.

Is the hashtag generator really free?

Yes — free with no account, up to 3 batches per day. If you want more options or help narrowing the list, the Genie (WedGenie's AI wedding planner) can brainstorm with you in chat.

About the wedding hashtag generator

A good wedding hashtag does quiet, useful work: it collects every guest photo from every phone into one place you can actually find. The best ones are short, easy to spell out loud, hard to typo, and specific enough that a stranger's brunch photos will not wander in. This generator takes your names — plus an optional style preference — and produces a batch of candidates across the useful genres: puns on your names, alliterations, classic Name-Weds-Name forms, and date-stamped variants. Generate as many batches as you like within the daily limit, pick your favorite, then check it on Instagram before committing: the perfect hashtag someone else used for their 2024 wedding is not the perfect hashtag.
