An easy way to share information on your wedding is by creating a website. Hotel and travel information, your registry, and a who’s who guide to your bridal party will help your guests plan and get them excited to celebrate with you. Here are a few things to keep in mind when designing yours:
- Use a site with templates: Working with wedding sites that offer ready made templates will make it much easier and less expensive than building your own. A template will remind you of the important details to include, and they are available in a variety of color palettes and themes so you’re sure to find one that fits your wedding’s look and feel.
- Share your story: Tell your guests how you met and how you got engaged. It’s up to you to determine how brief or elaborate you want to be.
- Upload photos: Include pictures of your courtship, engagement and pre-wedding celebrations. Remember to upload the section with your engagement portraits, too!
- Give guests the information they need: Make sure to include details on discounted air and hotel rates, the location of the wedding, and other events your guests will be attending, especially for a destination wedding. You can include the address and directions to the ceremony and reception venues so guests can look it up if they lose the directions card.
- Add registry information: Etiquette dictates that you cannot include your registry details on the invitation, so it’s important to share that information on your website. You should provide a link to all of the stores you’ve registered at, including charities.
