Now that you’ve officially locked down a relationship, those allusive Instagram stories of the side of your partner’s face need to be uncropped and taken to the grid. After all, nothing embodies the sanctity of a new relationship like some unmistakable hard launch Instagram captions. Your public debut as partners will be the talk of the town (group chats) for roughly 12-24 hours, so you might as well make it your moment, right?Â
However, navigating how to approach your hard launch is no easy task. The line between cringey and sweet is about as clear as your situationship was before you became official. And, you have to strike a balance between a cheeky caption and one that your grandma won’t call you confused about. The pictures you choose are undeniably important, but the caption sets the tone for the entire post. I mean, a picture of y’all holding hands feels a lot different with a caption that says “pending group chat approval” versus “meet the love of my life.” That’s why I put together a list of the 55 best hard launch Instagram captions that’ll have everyone, even that creepy guy who’s always sliding into your DM’s swooning over your relationship.
