It would probably bother me, I wouldnt have minded friends putting in on theirs but its the thought that friends of friends can then see them. For instance my MOH still has my ex on her Facebook (don't ask me why, I'm trying not to start a big argument over it).

I no longer have Facebook, I had a rather scary incident with a very strange guy who I thought was my friend, was advised to delete all social networking sites I was on as he was getting so much info (and photos!!!) from it, and like you say Kitty, friends of friends and trusting other people's privacy settings you cant really control who gets to see photos of you.

I'm hoping my friends all think and know not to put any photos of my wedding up, but I may have to issue a gentle reminder, thanks Kitty! xx

I don't think I'd mind. If they put other pictures of me up then I'm not that fussed so I don't see why the wedding would be any different. A solution if you do mind could be to set up a private Flikr (or similar) account, and share the password with your guests and ask them to upload there instead. That way you still get to see them with out sharing them with the whole world.

I'm specifically asking people not to, there is a massive fll out in our family and certain members including one set of grandparents won't be invited, I still keep in touch with cousins from that side of family on fb and to be honest I don't trust them an inch not to print photos and give them to them. They have acquired a Photo of my little brother of the age of 5 yet the fall out was when he was 2 or 3! Funnily enough found out via fb when my cousin had a photo taken in their front room with said photo of brother on the wall behind him!! Just incase I will be putting photos on a block the day before! I know it sounds ridiculous but there is massive reasons id rather not go into

I asked on the invitation that no one put any photos on Facebook of the day unless they'd okay'd it with us It's less that I'm bothered about pictures of me being on there than I think it's rude to put pictures up of people without their permission anyway, especially a special day like that!

I find the whole concept of people putting stuff on Facebook at will very worrying, so I totally understand! I read somewhere that someone had the Best Man mention this before his speech, he just said "the couple request that you don't put photos of the wedding on Facebook/online", and apparently everyone commplied!

I put regular photos online, like pictures of concerts and such - but it especially disturbs me when people put pictures of young children on there!

You think it would be cheecky to put a little note on my gettingmarried website and how would I word it so as not to sound like a paranoid nutter, or have to get into the reasons why I dont want any online

You can set your privacy settings so you have to pre-approve any pictures of you before people can see your tagged in them. I had no issue with people adding photos to FB of our wedding. Infact I now have some nice shots that guests took that the photographer didn't

It honestly doesntt bother me as everyone on my facebook I'm either friends with or online friends with, therefore I dont mind the photos being on there. As for previous ex's and stuff, well me and h2b are lucky in that they have all been amicable break ups.


I know it bothers some people and everyone has their own personal view so respect and understandwhy people dont want them on there!

_________________

I don't think it'll be cheeky at all, and I don't think you need to give reasons. It's a big deal and people surely know why a bride may not want photos on Facebook?

I'm glad you started this thread Kitty, because it was 3 years ago and I've since moved city I have put it to the back of my mind but I never thought about the wedding photos and Facebook

_________________

I don't think it would bother me too much to be honest but I totally understand the other girls saying they don't want any pics put on fb. The only thing that would bother me would be pictures of the children like my neice ending up on there but there's no real problems or rifts in the family so no one would use them for any form of wrong doing, might check with my brother anyway to see what he says!

Hey, that's what I'm here for my brain throws up a useful thought once in a while!

Just to point out this will only work for people who actually tag photos. I know plenty of people who of they are putting loads of photos up will just tell people to tag themselves because it's too much hassle.

_________________

I'm not bothered about it to be honest. I like seeing Facebook photos of weddings.

I am bothered about certain people knowing about the wedding and have had to ask one person to be careful what details they talk about. I just don't want certain people turning up that are absolutely not invited.

After the day they can see photos, etc I don't really care! As long as I have my lovely day uninterrupted.

We will be asking our guests not to put them up of us.
I'm fine with people putting them up of themselves at our wedding, but I do not want to see myself on there with me putting them on. I don't usually bother if friends put them on of me, but this is my wedding day!
We have a few family members that are not coming despite the nagging of "when are you getting married" for the last 5 years! I'm rather annoyed they aren't coming actually! So I will not be giving them the opportunity to see our pictures without some effort towards them coming to see us first!

I don't have a problem with it. My sister asked about it the other day and I thought it was strange that she asked as I wouldn't have thought it would be a problem. Can understand why some people wouldn't want it but it doesn't bother me.

I wouldn't have a problem with it at all, to be honest. I use Facebook a lot and often post photos, as do most of my friends, so to me it'd be strange not to have wedding pics on there! Plus I have friends living overseas who won't be able to come to the wedding, and I think it'd be nice for them to be able to see the pictures

We're going straight on honeymoon after our wedding (9 days to go!) so won't have a chance to see any photos before we go probably, so actually some photos on facebook might be quite welcome on our return! official photos can take some time to be available
