Promoting Your Wedding on Facebook

Facebook is one of the most popular social networks in the world, and chances are that you, your friends, and your family all have accounts already. This makes it uniquely perfect for a platform to get the word out about your wedding as well as share stories and pictures after your big day has come and gone. There are a few things to keep in mind as well as some great tips that will help you when promoting your wedding on Facebook, and we will cover some of these things below.

Coming Up With Ideas

Facebook is a really great way to get ideas for your wedding. Whether you ask your friends and family for advice or tap into the endless supply of strangers and companies who post wedding ideas on Facebook for everyone to enjoy. Though some people prefer to grab magazines or visit bridal expos to get their inspiration, Facebook also has a plethora of great information and resources to guide you on your way.

Inviting Guests

Creating an event on Facebook is something that most people are familiar with, so why not use it as a system for your guests to RSVP for your wedding? Though many couples will still want to send out paper RSVP cards, some of your guests will probably prefer to confirm their attendance via Facebook. this is also a great option if you want to have eco-friendly wedding invitations, but for many couples it's just a simpler way to get the word out about your wedding date. The best way to do this is to send out a Facebook invite two or three weeks before you would be sending out your paper invites by mail. Anyone on your guest list who RSVPs before you would mailing them out can get crossed off the list, and you can mail paper versions to everyone else. This can save you a lot of time, and also some money on postage.

Sharing Wedding Photos

Sharing photos on Facebook is really easy, so why not share your wedding photos on there? Not only can you post the photos that your wedding photographer snapped for your guests to enjoy, but you can also access all of the photos your guests took as well. Almost everyone has a high definition camera on their smartphone these days, so they will undoubtedly take a few pictures of their own on your big day. Some of the best shots from a wedding can be your friends and family enjoying themselves candidly, so having these photos in your collection can be great to make it even more memorable.
