What are the Best Captions for a Wedding Instagram Post?

Whether you go heartfelt or funny, clever or cute, the best captions for a wedding Instagram post are often short and simple. Instagram is an app that allows your photos to do the talking, so brief yet expertly crafted captions are the easiest way to capture your followers’ attention.

That said, if you want to post a wedding day caption that’s really from the heart, there’s no better opportunity to do this – and often these kinds of personalised posts, with their heartfelt, descriptive language, feel more relatable. You could even throw in a few emojis for good measure!

We’ve got plenty of wedding photo caption ideas to draw inspiration from, but you might also be inspired by your favourite quotes from books, films or songs that are meaningful to you as a couple.

How Do You Write a Wedding Day Caption for Instagram?

Along with keeping it succinct, from the heart and true to your personality, another top tip for writing an IG caption for a wedding photo is to use catchy hashtags.

While some couples encourage their guests to use their personalised wedding hashtags to create a buzz around their celebration and collectively link all the photos from the day, you might also want to use some more generic ones to get your posts out there, including #weddingday, #sealedthedeal, #tohaveandtohold, #letsgetmarried, #nowandforever, #loveislove and others.
