Let’s face it — social media is a crucial part of a wedding, and captions. But while sharing your proposal and wedding happenings on the interwebs is fun and totally acceptable, sometimes it can cause a bigger ordeal. Here, nine brides share their wedding-related social media faux pas so you don’t commit them yourselves.

“I still cringe when I remember what I did. I’m so used to carrying my iPhone I didn’t realize I had it when I was walking down the aisle — until it fell out of my hand with a huge clatter just as my groom was answering the question, ‘Do you take Anna to be your lawful wedded wife?'” —Anna

“When I got engaged I was so excited I instantly posted a picture of the huge diamond Ken bought me, saying, ‘This is 2.0 carats of love’. Ugggh. How braggy and awful. I took it down the next morning.” —Cynthia

“Two weeks after we got home from the honeymoon a cousin said, ‘Uh, according to Facebook you’re still single!’ I had forgotten to update my relationship status.” —Beth

“I was so excited to be engaged I tweeted about it before calling my parents.” —Linda

“I thought I was posting privately to a few bridesmaids about trouble I was having with a third who was acting like a ‘zilla. Only it was public — I was so humiliated and felt absolutely terrible for hurting my friend. We patched things up but it was rough going for a while.” —Toni

“I allowed phones in the fitting room during a wedding gown fitting and pictures of me in the dress wound up on Facebook and Instagram.” —Ivy

“What I did was awful. I sent gift thank yous on twitter instead of mailing letters. My mother was practically ready to disown me for being discourteous! I got the message and followed up with snail mail.” —Ruth
