Is it okay to post pictures you took at that wedding?

A lot of people can’t resist taking a shot of that beautiful bride walking down the aisle...

...but is it okay to hit “share” before they’re even married? Anna Post, author of “Emily Post’s Etiquette, 18th Edition,” says you really should hold off. The bride and groom have been waiting and planning for this moment for a long time – and it’s only right that they should have the chance to share what they want, when they want to. Even if a lot of pictures are being taken at the reception, it’s still a good idea to ask the newlyweds if they’d mind before posting them.
The same rules should apply for any private affair. When a lot of thought goes into the guest list and presentation, scooping the host or hostess with premature picture posting is like inviting the uninvited.
