#ValentinesDay
Hashtags are a great way get involved in conversation on social media, especially Twitter and Instagram, and a great way to gain likes and increase exposure. Popular hashtags for this year include:

You can even hashtag emoji on Instagram:

Imagery
Everyone loves images and people are much more likely to engage with images than text. It’s important to share images on your social media and website so why not tailor it around valentine’s day. Couples in love, hearts, people getting engaged and generally feeling the love always go down a storm. Why not update your Guides for Brides listings with some romantic photos to encourage those newly engaged couples to request a brochure or quote from you for their weddings?
