Your big day deserves more than a group text, sugar—let’s get digital, 1950’s-style.
In this modern age of hashtags and hyperlinkin’, your wedding needs more than a cute Save the Date—it needs a wedding website that’s as fabulous as your love story. It’s your go-to hub for guests, RSVPs, details, and all the scoop they’ll need so you’re not stuck answering “what time is the ceremony again?” 46 times.
Lucky for you, cupcake, you don’t need to be a tech whiz or spend a fortune. With a little know-how and a splash of style, you can create a wedding website that’s smooth, sweet, and perfectly you.

📝 What to Include on Your Wedding Website
Here’s your must-have menu, darling—keep it clear, sweet, and sassy:
- Your Love Story: A brief “how we met” or proposal tale for charm points
- Event Details: Date, time, location(s), dress code, weather prep
- Schedule of Events: Ceremony, reception, after-party, brunch, etc.
- Travel Info: Nearest airports, hotel blocks, parking tips
- Registry Links: Directly link your wishlist (target those mixers and martini glasses!)
- RSVP Functionality: Let guests respond right on the site
- FAQs: Can I bring a plus-one? Is it kid-friendly? Are pets allowed? (No, Aunt Mabel, not this time.)
💄 Sassy Tip: Include a “song request” form on your RSVP—keeps the dance floor full and the DJ spicy.
✨ 5 Tips to Make the Most of Your Wedding Website
1. Keep It On Theme
Match your site’s colors, fonts, and vibe to your wedding style. If you’re throwing a Cherry Pop rockabilly soirée, make that homepage scream jukebox glam!
2. Get a Custom URL
If you’re using Squarespace or Wix, splurge on a custom domain (like www.katieandtomtie-theknot.com). It’s easier to remember—and tres chic.
3. Mobile First, Sugar
Make sure your site looks good on phones—because 99% of your guests will be peeking at it during work hours.
4. Keep It Updated
If plans change (weather, timing, COVID precautions), your website should be the first place you update—don’t leave guests guessing.
5. Add Personality
Include inside jokes, your engagement photos, or a countdown timer. It’s YOUR wedding—let it show!
