Engagement photos on Facebook?

elplute

I know it's generally inappropriate to put wedding information on Facebook.  Do engagement photos fall into that category?

Thank you for your help!

I think it is perfectly fine to post engagement photos on fb. A ton of my friends do it and I love to look at them. You don't have to completely hide that you are engaged on fb!

A-okay to post an album of e-pics on FB.  It's more the wedding details themselves that you want to avoid posting all over FB.  Or constantly counting down daily/weekly/etc.

Pictures are fine. I posted mine.

I would post maybe your 2-3 favorites instead of every single one of them.  But yeah, it's fine to mention being engaged.  You definitely DO NOT want to post every little planning detail ("We're going to look at venues/try on dresses/taste cake today!" or "So excited that we finally set a date!  June 5th is booked at St. John's Church!!!")

I personally love looking at my engaged friend's wedding pics, engagement pics, wedding status updates, etc.   A lot of people get the wrong idea about them though and start to think they're invited if they're not, etc. so it's not the greatest idea to get really in depth in wedding planning on FB, but put up as many pics as you want.   Seeing pics of what your friends and family are up to is kind of the whole point of Facebook.

I'm posting one or two on facebook but I will be leaveing the best of them to be exclusive to our wedding website, invitations, and assorted greeting cards.

We got 60 e-pics from our photographer, and I posted an album of 18 of my favorite pics. I'd say do something like that--just the best ones. I love looking at people's e-pics on FB, but I hate having to click through seven pics that are all the same except a slightly different pose, or one is in color and one's black and white.

I agree with PP. My photographer actually put ten of his favorites up the day after and tagged be and FI in them so that took care of that. However being excited is great and it is hard to not put things up as a status. SO far I have written only one and it has basically said "Picking up my wedding dress today!"

Also! We started a facebook group to compline addresses which may be poor ettiquette but it is working out great! The trick is to make it a "secret" group so people you do not specifically invite can't see anything about it.

I don't know that it's necessarily inappropriate to put wedding info on facebook, I just feel like I don't need all 599 friends knowing the details about my wedding.

There is nothing wrong with you wanting to share your joy of being engaged. Just don't over do it by posting every little detail. There is a person I am friends with on FB and her status everyday was a count down to her engagement party and the day before she made sure to post the attire of what you can and cannot wear and made sure no one else was to wear white. I think thats a bit bridezillish.
Congrats!!!
