Create the Perfect Welcome Message with Our Wedding Website Examples & Hints

Even the most creative couples need a little inspiration when faced with the task of creating a wedding website from scratch. Especially when it comes to the 'our story' section. A uniquely personal piece to write together, one that requires sharing a collective personality, as well as your own. Not a simple task! Which is why we thought sharing a few wedding website examples created by our own couples may inspire your online space, and in turn help you write your love story.

A black-and-white line illustration represents website security and domain access. On the left, a tag labeled “WWW” is attached to a key on the right by a thin string. The key, featuring a notched end and radiating lines, symbolizes authentication and access. This visual concept highlights the connection between online security and the World Wide Web, suggesting that the proper key grants entry.

What is 'Our Story' on a Wedding Website?

The 'our story' section of your wedding website offers an opportunity to take a trip down memory lane, and bring some extra personality to your site. An insight into your relationship and how you got to this point. Now, we know it's tempting to think that your guest list will know how they popped the question, and could almost write your story section for you! But not every guest present will know you that well.

Unless you're planning a super intimate wedding day, with only immediate family and best friends present, there will always be plus ones and extra guests there who don't know you both at all well. A good, genuine 'our story' section will help bring all wedding guests up to speed, and allow everyone to get excited about your big day!

What to Include in the 'Our Story' on your Wedding Website

We break down the key parts your 'about us' section should (not must) include.

Screenshot of a wedding website homepage featuring a close-up of a bride hugging a groom near the ocean, showing her engagement ring. Center text reads ‘28 August’ ‘We’re Getting Married!,’ and ‘Bride Name & Groom Name.’ A top menu lists ‘Wedding,’ ‘Travel & Stay,’ ‘Upload a photos,’ and ‘RSVP,’ plus the domain name, copy link, and open tab.

Design a wedding website

An Introduction

As we mentioned, not every guest will know you intimately. Therefore, it's important to introduce yourselves and set the scene. Share a few details about each other as individuals before beginning to write as a couple. Your names are a good place to start! Then maybe where you're from, where you're at and what you like doing. Nothing forced, nor contrived. Just a few details that'll help guests understand you both better.

Screenshot of a ‘Wedding’ details page. A couple in white clothing with an orange scarf is pictured on the left, labeled ‘Ceremony’ for 28 August at 4:00 PM in Black Rock Desert, Nevada. Below is ‘Reception’ from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM at the same location, shown with a place setting photo. Each event has ‘View Map,’ ‘Add to Calendar,’ and ‘RSVP.’

Share Your Story Together in Order

We would always suggest making your text as easy to read as possible. It might be tempting to jump back and forth between life events, flexing your writing skills, but it's just going to be confusing for the reader.

Screenshot of a wedding RSVP form with a note reading, ‘We look forward to seeing you!’ and a reminder to RSVP by July 10. Fields include first and last names, radio buttons for attendance (Yes, No, or Unsure), a checkbox for dietary restrictions, a guest question, and a comments box, followed by a ‘Submit’ button.

Break things down, and write chronologically. Where did you meet? What was your dating journey like? Did you have any big trips? Poignant events? And then the proposal story. Build up to that final (hopefully) sweet story by giving the reader the full history of events up to that point. Trust us, your wedding party will be more blown away by your romantic wedding story if it's written with a thoughtful build up.

This is digital RSVP card appears to be emerging from an open envelope. Sandra Ward sent it on March 10, confirming her attendance at both the ceremony and the reception. An enthusiastic comment reads, “Wow! I will be happy to attend your wedding! Let’s party!” The design features rounded speech bubbles and a soft background, creating an elegant, celebratory vibe.

Finish Up with a Few Words About the Wedding Day

To nicely round off your walk down memory lane, it's good to look towards the future, and your wedding date. Just a couple of lines about how you can't wait to celebrate with everyone, and what a milestone your wedding ceremony will be in your story. The rest is history!

PLANNING . WEDDING — is easy to remember and even easier to use.

Thomas & Claudia

This is a wonderful example of a moving story where a chance encounter blossomed into true love, inspiring journeys across the globe!

Our story began in the magic desert of Black Rock City, where the air was thick with magic of "playa provide". Across the space of temple, our eyes met, and in that instant, the world seemed to fade. A glance became a spark, pulling us closer until the night dissolved into deep conversation, laughter, and the intoxicating realization of how much we shared. That spark grew into something extraordinary — something neither of us could ignore.

From that night forward, our lives intertwined in a journey of discovery. Together, we’ve wandered through the icy tundras of Siberia, ascended Nepal’s towering peaks, meandered through Morocco’s vibrant souks, and found peace in Japan’s serene landscapes. With every step, we’ve learned that home isn’t a place — it’s the way we feel in each other’s presence, exploring the world hand in hand.

Three years later, we’re more than just a couple. We are best friends, soulmates, and fearless partners in this beautiful, chaotic adventure of life. Every moment — every challenge and every joy — has drawn us closer, and now, we’re ready to begin the next chapter.

We can’t wait to celebrate our love with you as we make it official!

Anne & Marty

Anne and Marty's big day was a relaxed, yet sophisticated affair down by the water in Northern Sydney. They reflected their love of the coast in their beach filled engagement photos, while also hinting at the color theme of the day with their green and yellow font choices.

Marty proposed to Anne in the Summer of 2023, in a surprise picnic in Sydney, Australia. Voice shaking and man-tears inevitably flowing, he bared his emotions and declared his commitment to his would-be wife. Anne responded with an equally tearful "Yes!".

Their story is not without twists and turns but beyond doubt, it is a story of devotion, friendship, and unwavering belief that two people who fell in love can and will share a beautiful life together.

We love Anne and Marty's story because it makes us feel like we're right there with them! In just a few short lines, we're all on that beach, sharing in their very special moment.

Khanh & Minh

Setting the tone for your future celebration is so key when designing a wedding website, and Khanh & Minh did that so well with theirs. Creating Bond-esque levels of suave and elegance with their engagement photos. While also letting guests know exactly what color palette they could expect to see, and be a part of. In comparison to their refined engagement photography, their story feels so sweet.

Let’s bring this story back to 7 years ago, when Minh and Linh first met each other at a singing contest in Houston in November of 2016.

During their rehearsal, Linh had a feeling that someone was always looking her way. When she looked up, Linh saw Minh’s eyes staring at her, but they hadn’t talked to each other yet. Guess what, after the rehearsal was over, Minh sent Linh a text through Facebook messenger and asked for Linh’s phone number. They started talking to each other afterwards. It was 2017 and their first date happened 2 months after that. Minh and Linh both have passion for music and art. They later collaborated in duets, went to events and shows together in Texas and other states. In most shows, Linh was the host and Minh was the singer; in others, they both sing. For several months, they have had the most exciting adventures together.

Fast forward to fall of 2017, Linh got admitted to a pharmacy school in Texas and started chasing her dream to become a pharmacist. Her life turned to a new page. Linh was juggling with school, exams, rotations, work, and a lot more on her plate. However, Minh was always there. As he was starting his own business, Minh’s schedule had no gaps either, but he was always Linh's best supporter, and she did the same for him. Minh and Linh faced most challenges in their relationship during this time. Thankful to God, they overcame their obstacles and chose to stay together. Despite all the difficulties, Minh and Linh chose not to give up on each other. Even better, they together created a music band and hosted many acoustic shows at Minh's cafeteria from 2018-2020 to satisfy their love for music. They both grew up when Linh graduated with her Doctor of Pharmacy degree in 2021, and Minh successfully owned a new business named Houston Aqua in the heart of Houston in 2022.

Finally, the day has come, Minh has decided that he wants to dance with Linh at their wedding. In February of 2023, on their 6th-year-anniversary night, he got down on one knee and proposed to Linh. It was a cozy and romantic night, surrounded by the couple’s close friends. Of course, Linh said yes, and they decided to tie the knot.

Today with the Grace of God, WE, Minh and Khanh, cheerfully announce that we're getting MARRIED.

Jose & Ana

These guys show exactly what makes their union special in their use of photography, and thoughtful text. Their beautiful wedding website features some stunning photos of the couple taken during their many adventures, which not only help display just how close these two best friends are. But also gives a hint at their rustic, natural wedding theme.

We first met at university at the ages of 21 and 19, became best friends and then dated since June 5th, 2015. We love to travel and are determined to spend the rest of our lives together after getting engaged on May 16th at Parc Monceau, Paris, France.

We remain best friends and life partners who share a great love. Now, with the blessing of God and our parents, we want to invite you to share in our wedding day.

Not every love story needs to be epic, or overly emotional to help convey the love two people have for each other. And Jose and Ana are the perfect example of that.

Niki & Radek

For Niki and Radek, life is for adventure, and their wedding website makes that easy for guests to understand. Their fun engagement shots are wild and romantic, inviting us into their love story before even hearing their story! The overall design of their wedding site has been kept simple to allow their impactful photography to shine through, and not distract from their words.

Years full of unforgettable experiences have passed since that first date at Letná in Prague, where our journey together began. Together we have experienced mountain trips, spontaneous Euro weekends and idyllic Summer vacations. Our adventures took us to different corners of the world and helped us get to know each other better and strengthen our love.

With each new experience, we felt more connected, until one summer in hot August Ronda, under the iconic Puente Nuevo bridge, Ráďa decided to take our relationship to a new level. This moment became another milestone in our relationship.

And now we are happy to invite you to share with us another important moment of our journey. On Saturday, March 23rd, 2024, we will say our YES. Join us to celebrate our love, friendship and future together.

We look forward to meeting you and sharing this unforgettable day.

'Our Story' Writing Tips for Your Wedding Website

No two love stories are the same, and every wedding website is different. Don't believe anyone who says there are rules you need to follow when writing your wedding website about us section. But if you're looking for guidance, here's our tips for writing yours.


Build your wedding website

Think About the POV

Couples traditionally write 'our story' in the 3rd person. For example, 'It was a frosty, yet bright Spring morning when Jasper got down on one knee in front of Serena and asked her to be his wife'. Writing in this style helps to add a little extra romance to your tale, and often makes it easier to put together. We've found that couples find it strange to boast about their love story, or even talk openly about themselves in the first person. But as soon as they take themselves out of the equation, and start writing about each other as characters, it suddenly feels more natural.

Screenshot of an ‘Our Story’ page showing a couple embracing against a misty background. The woman wears a flowing orange scarf and rests her head on the man’s shoulder as he faces away from the camera. Their gentle pose and soft color palette convey a romantic tone, reflecting the couple’s journey together.

We regularly see couples mixing 3rd person in with 1st, but in our opinion, that feels messy and confusing. One moment you're talking about Taylor and Justin meeting at Starbucks, and the next you're sharing how you felt when he was down in one knee. Without any break in between. Keep to one point of view if you want to keep readers engaged.

Our favorite love stories come from both partners, and are written in the first person. You can come together at the beginning, or the end, but it's great to feel the personality from both people in the relationship, rather than having everything come from a collective voice.

Break it up

The writing process for your website should not feel like homework, or an extension of the working day. It should be fun. An enjoyable jaunt down memory lane together, and an excuse to share just how wonderful you think your partner is. Keep it exciting by not punishing yourself for not finishing it in one sitting, or overly worrying about the words you've written.

Don't Force the Writing Process

The writing process for your website should not feel like homework, or an extension of the working day. It should be fun. An enjoyable jaunt down memory lane together, and an excuse to share just how wonderful you think your partner is. Keep it exciting by not punishing yourself for not finishing it in one sitting, or overly worrying about the words you've written.

We would suggest taking notes, and chatting with your partner about what you'd like to write, before even starting a custom wedding website. Having a fun foundation of thoughts jotted down, perhaps over a couple of glasses of wine, will inspire you greatly when you actually sit down to write. And, if you only manage a line or two the first time you start to write, don't worry! Step away, take your time, and go again when inspiration strikes.
