Wedding Websites

Wedding websites have become increasingly popular within the past few years. Since most guests have access to the web, wedding details can easily be discussed through updates and on blogs. Knowing which host and template that will work best is difficult, so I have broke down the four main types of wedding websites along with their advantages and general pricing.
Information to Include on Your Website:
  • Your love story, proposal story, the story about how you met
  • A few photos of the happy couple
  • Links to your registries
  • Registration for an e-mail when information is updated
  • Weather patterns for wedding and reception city
  • Detailed itinerary
  • Travel information- guest accommodations, flight, and transportation details
  • RSVP list, providing guests can RSVP for events online
  • Directions to your ceremony and reception venue(s)
  • A guest book for visitors to sign
