Be Inspired by Our Real Couple Wedding Website Templates

Wedding websites are an essential part of the modern wedding planning process. Because a good online wedding invitation makes it easy for guests to get the information they need, while also helping to build excitement for the celebration itself! Plus, they're really fun to put together! Picking out fonts, creating a color theme & sharing your love story are just some of the highlights we know our couples love to get creative with when using our free wedding website builder. But starting an online invitation from scratch can be a little overwhelming for some. Not knowing where to start, how it should look or feel is a challenge. If you are currently struggling for inspiration, and you require a little insight into how others have put theirs together - we've got some unique wedding website examples for you!

What Makes a Great Wedding Website?

For us, the two main factors in determining a great overall wedding website, is authenticity and excitement. Any couples' aim when creating a website theme should be to craft something that feels genuine. A space that's instantly recognizable to your friends and family.

The words you put together should give readers a real sense of your shared personality, while also bringing those who don't know you so well up to speed on your history. Moreover, it should be enjoyable to read, in whatever way that feels most comfortable to you. If humor comes naturally, share a couple of funny anecdotes. But don't feel forced to make people laugh if you're more into romance, or thrilling tales. Spin your story in whatever way feels natural to you.

Beyond the 'our story' section, your overall website design should give guests a preview of what's to come! A sneak peek at the color palette and big day theme you're working on. Our free wedding website builder makes it easy to bring in touches of the color, and style loved ones should expect to see on your wedding day. With a customizable color palette, lots of room for photos and the ability to get creative with fonts.

What to Include on Your Wedding Website

A great wedding website needs as much information about your special day as possible. Unsure of what to include? Here's the basic information every wedding website needs.

• Wedding Date
• Location of Ceremony & Reception (if taking place in different venues)
• Timings for key events
• Links to Your Registry
• The Dress Code
• RSVP (and plus one information)

Our wedding website template has all of the above already laid out, making it impossible for you to forget any critical wedding details. Plus, RSVPs are built into our website builder and are integrated with our online wedding guest list maker. So there's no need to send loved ones elsewhere to confirm their attendance. It can all be done easily and quickly within your site. And you'll be notified by email as soon as someone has confirmed their attendance! All for free!

The perfect wedding website should cover other, less-essential information too, and we've listed those topics below.

Your Rule on Kids

Not every couple wants kids running around during their wedding day, and we entirely understand that! Whereas others love the idea of a lively, loud celebration full of laughing children. Whatever your stance is, give your guests an early heads up, and make your wedding website clear on said rule.

Accommodation (suggestions, discounts, or information on a place you've booked for guests)

Whether you've gone ahead and block booked rooms for loved ones or not, it's a good idea to provide information on where they could stay. Especially if you can personally recommend hotels or Airbnb's in the area.

Local Recommendations

If you're marrying in your hometown and the majority of your guests know the location of your wedding venue well, then obviously don't worry about recommending local eateries. Guests attending a destination wedding, on the other hand, love getting suggestions of places to eat, drink and visit while in town. Be their local guide and put together a nice list of places you know they'd enjoy in between wedding activities.

Even if you're not marrying abroad, it's still fun to put together a little suggested itinerary for visiting guests.

Transport

Make your wedding guests' lives easier by arranging, or strongly recommending, transport to and from your wedding venues. If most of your guests are staying in the same hotel, then arrange for buses or large taxis to get them home at the end of the night. It may feel like an extra budget push you don't need to spend, but both you and your guests will really appreciate not having to worry about transport at the end of the night.

Booked buses or not, make transport details clear on your custom wedding website. Something that is easy to do with our free builder, as it provides plenty of space for you to share any details you like.

Wedding Day/Weekend Schedule

Giving guests information about your big day as early as possible is the best way to keep them quiet! Once you have concrete bookings in place, put together a schedule on your wedding website with timings of all the major events during the day, and/or weekend. The beauty of a wedding website like ours, is that you can edit these timings if things change, or add extra events as you progress through the planning journey.

How Do You Give a Wedding Website that Personal Touch & Get Guests Excited?

Our free website builder allows couples the opportunity to get creative with their wedding website design, and share as much personality as possible. But how exactly do you do that? Before we share the beautiful wedding website examples of our couples, let's look how you could bring uniqueness to an online space.

Share Your Love Story

Our favorite way to make a wedding website feel unique, is with a thoughtful 'about us' section. What could be more personal than sharing how the two of you reached this point together! Plenty of guests will already know the ins and outs of your relationship, and lives before. But many won't. Your wedding website provides the perfect opportunity to bring everyone up to speed, and really set the scene for your nuptials.

If words aren't your thing, then share your story in pictures, or video! Our wedding website builder provides a place for you to drop images from your journey together, along with a dedicated space for video. Ideal if you have countless clips from vacations and past celebrations you'd love to stitch together and share.

An Easy to Navigate RSVP

We have gone through the RSVP process many times in the past, and can personally relate to anyone who finds the process confusing or time-consuming! Which is why we made ours so straightforward, and intuitive.

Guests can confirm their attendance directly from your wedding website, and the RSVP form is automatically linked to your guest list. Meaning not only can you send personalized RSVP forms to different groups of guests, based on their invitation type. But you can also easily collect as much information from them as you like! Dietary requirements, accommodation, travel needs, whether they'll be bringing a guest, whether they can attend multiple wedding events. The opportunities for gathering information are almost endless!

Whichever way you decide to confirm attendance, just make sure the RSVP button is clearly marked, and that guests don't find the process confusing.

Countdown

In our experience, nothing gets guests more excited about upcoming nuptials than a countdown clock! Which is why we built one into our one-page website. In one click you can add the date of your big day to your site and give loved ones an instant idea of how long they have to wait to see you guys tie the knot!

A Space to Upload Guest Photos

We all know photography is a must when booking wedding vendors, as the professional content they capture on the day will help you, and guests, relive every moment for years to come. But during the festivities, guests will obviously be taking photos too, and those shots offer a unique way of seeing what was going on in-between the major moments. What the atmosphere was like on the table of your extended wedding party, how the first dance looked from your guests' POV, and your reaction to seeing certain people on the night. These little snapshots of the day should be cherished. Which is why we made it easy for guests to share their photography with you.

At the bottom of our site builder, you'll find an upload button that allows guests to quickly and easily share their photos with you. We also provide a unique QR code linked to your wedding website. Perfect for dotting around your venue, and integrating into table design, so guests can upload their images as soon as they're taken.
