Yes, this is the golden rule that you must follow while creating your wedding hashtag. It should not have more than three to five words. The more words it will have, more would be the chances of your guests misspelling or forgetting it. That is why, it is better to keep it short.
Also, do not add any symbol, dashes, or any space in your hashtag. Your hashtag should consist of just alphabets and numbers, such as #SahiWedsPatel, #RajWedsSaloni2015, etc. In addition, keep the initials of every word in uppercase, for ease of understanding of all.

If you want to create a simple hashtag, then there is nothing better than using your and your partner’s name, nickname, or surname. But, it can look a little dull. So, try to pick some unique hashtag, which symbolises your union or tells about the ceremony. For example, if the fusion of your names forms a cool word (just like Saifeena for Saif and Kareena), then use it to show your creative side. But, do not use abbreviations like #MOPAK, which stands for 'Marriage Of Pulkit And Kirti'. It makes no sense and will just confuse your guests.
You can add words, like ‘weds’, ‘hitch’, ‘love’, ‘party’, ‘celebration’, ‘happilyeverafter’, etc., to make your hashtag more appealing to your guests. Some examples are- #RoyWeddingParty, #AmitWedsPriya, #SonalAyushCelebration, #TeamSingh, #ShuklasLiveHappilyEverAfter, etc.
