Your Wedding Website Questions Answered:

What is on a wedding website?

A wedding website is a hub for all the information about your wedding day. You will need to share important information with your guests such as dates and locations, travel and hotel options, registry information along with RSVP options as well. Many wedding websites will allow you to add as much information as you want or you can decide to have a very streamlined look.

Is a wedding website necessary?

Nothing is 100% necessary when it comes to planning a wedding but having a website is something that can make life easier for both the couple and the guests. With so many options available and a large number of companies offering both free and upgraded websites, there really is no reason not to create one. The pros of having a website are the ability to communicate important information with your guests and to keep track of registry and RSVP information.

How much do wedding websites cost?

There is a wide range of costs when it comes to having your own wedding website. There are many different options including free sites but the more customizable sites range between $40 – $100 for one year.

When should you create a wedding website?

You don’t need to create a site the moment you get engaged since you won’t have any real details to share yet about the big day so you can wait to create the site until you have some actual information to share. Once you have decided on a date and a venue you can start creating your website and then add in details like travel and hotel information and registry options as you move through the planning process.

How do you direct guests to your wedding website?

There are several different ways you can direct guests to your website. The most popular way seems to be including the website information with your Save The Date card. Besides enclosing the information with your Save The Date you can also send out the website
URL in an email to guests and add it to your social media profiles.

Top 10 Wedding Websites

With so many different wedding website options out there we wanted to take the guesswork out of the equation. We rounded up our top 10 wedding websites along with their features, price point, why you might want to choose them, and any difficulties you might encounter along the way.

Say I do

  • Why Choose: Say I do simplifies wedding planning with its intuitive design, easy guest list management, and private event features, all in one customizable platform to make your special day stress-free.

WIX

  • Main Feature: This site allows you to create a site by selecting from a wide range of templates and customize the details. You can create and add an event logo, add a calendar of events, and of course outline all important travel and event details. If you select to upgrade to the $13/month price you gain access to more customizable details, adding your own domain, removal of the Wix ad, and uploading 30 minutes of video time.
  • Price: Free – $13/month
  • Why Choose: A good number of templates to choose from but not as many as some other sites so you actually are not overwhelmed with thousands of choices. The creative tools are somewhat easy to use although they did take some time to get used to. WIX does allow you to keep your site private until you publish it so it allows for as many changes as you may need. If security is important to you then you can choose to have a password-protected site.
  • Difficulties: The creative tools take some time to get used to using along with the registry section is not as well developed as many other sites.

WordPress

  • Main Feature: WordPress allows you to sign up for a free website, pick a theme and personalize it somewhat quickly however if you want any sort of upgrades you will have to pay for it. Custom features do include custom headers and background, RSVP forms, maps, email notifications, and more.
  • Price: Free or $4/month for a personal site and $8/month for a premium site.
  • Why Choose: If you have experience with using WordPress then there is no reason not to sign on and start your wedding website or if you are looking to be able to build out several pages and categories, WordPress gives you that option. If you are very techy and want to change up the CSS you can do that in WordPress while many other wedding websites don’t give you that option.
  • Difficulties: Not the easiest of tools when creating a website and if you don’t have some knowledge of this website’s tools you can find this program to be slightly too difficult.

Wedsites

  • Main Feature: Wedsite is a wedding website that features customizable templates, protected passwords, site visitor analytics, email and chats support. This website also allows you to add links to registries, charities of cash funds. You will get stipulated free hosting, a guest list database, Paperless invites, RSVP, checklists, and more.
  • Price: There is a lite package which is free. But for more features, the website offers a one-time payment standard package for $99 and a pro package for $199.
  • Why Choose: Wedsite lives up to its promises of easy navigation, beautiful templates, and stunning themes. The website also released a new feature which makes Wedsite the only wedding website that offers multilingual translation. This new release makes it a welcome platform for multicultural couples who speak other languages. If you also want to add pictures, YouTube clips, or a personalized playlist, Wedsite allows it. Start with the free package.
  • Difficulties: Wedsite is good value for money, but has limits to what it offers. While the RSVP and custom templates are beautiful, other tools like budgeting, seating charts, guest list management, and more are basic. However, this may not mean much to many couples because you can always work through that.

Squarespace

  • Main Feature: Squarespace offers a wide variety of elegantly designed wedding website templates that allows you to customize your page easily. Spacespace is known for its “drag and drop” templates which takes the guesswork out how to add images and text. Squarespace calls their wedding websites an “All In One Website Platform” and we really couldn’t agree more. When using this website you have the ability to easily add your registry information if you are using the Zola wedding registry and you can add RSVP tools, image galleries, custom domains, and more.
  • Price: $12/month for 1 year or $16/month for a month to month.
  • Why Choose: If you want your wedding website to have a clean and fresh look then this is the site for you to use. If you are looking for easy to use tools when creating the site then we would highly recommend starting with Squarespace. If you do run into any issues along the way Squarespace offers fantastic help and videos to keep you creating. Squarespace is the closest thing to a professional website you can get without having to have coding experience.
  • Difficulties: One of the biggest problems you might encounter is that Squarespace can be tricky to get your RSVP list going since it does not sync with a guestlist like many other full wedding planning sites offer. If you have a budget on your mind this site may not be for you since you have to upgrade after the free trial ends after 2 weeks.
