We are in the majority hooked to our smartphones; it’s now simply a way of life for us all. We wake up in the morning and likely one of the first things we do is to check our phones. If we are going on holiday, many people like to check in at the airport not just for their boarding pass but also on their Facebook profile!
Social media is so ubiquitous that even special occasions like weddings haven’t escaped from their influence and the decision on whether to ‘allow’ social media is now a consideration for brides and grooms, if there wasn’t enough to consider already!
For many couples, this might not be a concern but for others, they might worry about being photographed from an awkward angle on the most important day of their lives and witness it being shared all over the Internet. So for many brides and grooms it’s about control of their day which is understandable in some ways.
The guys from the Sheraton Athlone Hotel have created this infographic below which shows some interesting statistics about the issue which might help if you are concerned about it for your own wedding. It also gives some interesting ideas in terms of what to think about when dealing with your own use of social media for your wedding and gives some tips on getting the most from any material people get using their phones. Check it out below!
