All about Wedding Websites

Weddings are all about details. The more attention you pay to these details, the more things will run smoothly. These days, a wedding website is an important detail which you can’t afford to miss. It makes wedding planning easier for you, as well as makes things convenient for your guests. Typically, the link to your wedding website will be shared on your Save-the-Dates and/or formal wedding invitation.

So what should a wedding website be like? What information should it include? You might want to pick colors for your wedding website close to your wedding colors. Here is a list of things which you could include in your wedding website:

1. “How we met”: A lot of couples have a section about how the couple got together. Usually, it would have a separate versions by the bride and the groom. This can be brief and does not have to include a lot of personal detail.
2. “The Proposal”: In this the bride usually talks about he proposed. Again, personal details can be kept to minimum.
3. Wedding Details: Information about all the wedding functions, different venues, maps and directions.
4. RSVP: On your wedding website, you could have an option for your guests to RSVP. This is very convenient for the guests and also lets you know instantly who all will be attending.
5. Gift Registry: A link to your gift registry and information on where to ship the gifts is appropriate to put on the wedding website.
6. Photos: Some couples like to put pictures of themselves, typically engagement portraits, on their wedding website.
7. Guestbook: Often times, couples will have a guestbook for their guests to sign and send them good wishes.
