How to create a wedding website

Wedding websites are a great way to give your guests all the information they need in one place. They are also a fantastic way to get your guests excited about your big day. Here is a step-by-step guide to creating a wedding website:

Choose a Platform

There are several great platforms to choose from when creating your wedding website, each offering its own perks. Some popular options include The Knot, WeddingWire, Zola, Minted, Wix, and Squarespace. These platforms offer a range of templates, customization options, and tools to help you create a beautiful and informative website.

Create Relevant Pages

Once you've chosen your platform, it's time to start customizing your website by adding relevant pages. Some essential pages to include are:

• Home: This is where guests will be directed to when they visit your website. Include a photo of the couple and details about the ceremony and reception.
• Our Story: This section is a great place to share your love story and engagement photos.
• Schedule: Create a separate tab for the itinerary, especially if you have multiple events.
• Travel and Accommodations: Provide information on nearby airports, parking, and hotel recommendations.
• Registry: Include a page with links to your online registry.
• Things to Do: If you're having a destination wedding or a weekend-long celebration, suggest local attractions and activities for your guests.
• Wedding Party: You can include a section introducing your wedding party, with names and titles.
• RSVP: Set up an RSVP page to make it easy for your guests to respond and provide any additional information, such as meal preferences or dietary restrictions.

Add All the Details

Now it's time to fill in all the important details about your wedding, such as the event itinerary, accommodations, travel information, registry links, dress code, and any other information your guests may need. This is also the step where you can upload photos and add custom designs to personalize your website.

Publish and Share

Once you're happy with your website and have tested that all the links and features are working correctly, it's time to publish it! You can password-protect your site for added privacy and then share the link with your guests via email, save-the-dates, or wedding invitations. Don't forget to include the password if your site is password-protected!

Tips for a Great Wedding Website

• Start building your website 10 months to a year before your wedding, giving yourself plenty of time to design and update as details are confirmed.
• Opt for a custom URL, which will be easier for guests to remember and fit better on paper invitations.
• Include icebreaker information, such as how you met and key moments in your relationship. This helps guests get to know you better and can be a great conversation starter.
• Make sure your website is mobile-friendly, so guests can easily access all the information on their phones or tablets.
• Enable notifications to quickly disseminate any last-minute changes or updates to your guests.
• Match the design of your website to your invitations and stationery for a cohesive look.
• Follow up with photos after the wedding, so guests can relive the memories without sharing them on social media.
