How to Do a February Dump on Instagram

Similar to a January caption, February photo captions will use a lot of winter colors, like blue, white and silver. However, many people are needing some extra adventure in this final month of winter, so consider inspiring your friends to get out and about with ski trip photos, a cozy board game night or a campfire on the beach. For those in the throes of winter wedding planning, share how you're getting out and about to break up the stress and decisions that come along with this stage of your life.
