Muslim wedding hashtags, made from your names
The generator turns Nikah, Shaadi and other words your family actually uses into hashtags. Tap one to copy it.
How it works
Type both first names and, if you like, the surname you’ll share and the year. The generator puts Muslim patterns first, built on Nikah, Shaadi, Walima, Mehndi, then adds the classic name blends. For Ayesha and Imran, it suggests #AyeshaImranKaNikah, #AyeshaImranNikah27, #AyeshaWedsImranNikah and more. Check a hashtag on Instagram before you print it.
Tap a hashtag to copy it. Search for it on Instagram before you settle on one, in case someone else is already using it.
Muslim wedding hashtags are built around the nikah, the marriage contract: #MayaRahulKaNikah (“Maya and Rahul’s nikah”) or simply #MayaRahulNikah. The walima, the reception, often gets its own hashtag because it is a separate day with its own guests.
In Kerala the henna night is the mylanchi and in the north the mehndi; either word fits before the names for that evening’s photos.
The words
- Nikah
- the marriage contract and ceremony
- Shaadi
- wedding
- Walima
- the reception hosted by the groom’s family
- Mehndi

Tips
- Nikah is short and clear; it leaves room for a surname or year.
- Use the walima hashtag on the reception invitation if the two guest lists differ.
- Ka and Ki are the possessives; keep them capitalised as separate words.

Questions couples ask
What is a good hashtag for a nikah?
#MayaRahulNikah or #MayaRahulKaNikah, with the year if the names are common. Add #WalimaMayaRahul for the reception.
Should the mehndi have its own hashtag?
It can: #MehndiMayaRahul (or #MylanchiMayaRahul in Kerala). Most couples keep one hashtag and let guests add the function name.
