The Ultimate Wedding Website Checklist
Your wedding website is more than just a place for details—it’s a beautifully curated experience that makes things seamless for your guests while adding a personal touch to your celebration. Whether you're hosting an intimate gathering or a multi-day event, here’s everything to include for a well-organized and thoughtful wedding website.
1. Event Details & Schedule
The foundation of your wedding website. Make sure your guests have access to:
Date, time, and location of the ceremony and reception
A clear timeline for the day’s events
Details on any pre-wedding or post-wedding gatherings, such as welcome drinks, a rehearsal dinner, or a farewell brunch
If you’re hosting multiple events, consider adding RSVP options for each to track attendance with ease.
2. Your Love Story
We always love including this for a personal touch and emotional connection. Your guests are there to celebrate your story, so let them in on the journey. Share how you met, the proposal story, or even a few fun facts about your relationship. This section is especially meaningful for family and friends who may not know both of you well yet.
3. Travel & Accommodation
Make travel easy for your guests by including:
Recommended hotels with booking links
A local guide with the best restaurants, attractions, and things to do nearby
Transportation options, including airport details and how to get to the venue
Shuttle service or parking information if applicable
For destination weddings, this section is essential to ensure your guests feel informed and excited about the experience.
4. Registry
Whether you’ve created a traditional registry, a honeymoon fund, or a charity donation option, having all registry links in one place makes gift-giving effortless for your guests. Be sure to mention if gifts aren’t expected or if you prefer an alternative like contributions to a future home or travel experiences.
5. FAQs
Anticipate guest questions ahead of time with a dedicated FAQ section. Some key points to cover:
Dress code and any specific attire requirements
Whether children are welcome or if it’s an adults-only event
Plus-one policy and RSVP etiquette
Venue accessibility and any special considerations for elderly guests
This section will help reduce the number of messages you receive as the big day approaches.
6. RSVP System
A seamless RSVP system saves time and simplifies planning. Make sure to include:
A deadline for RSVPs
Meal preferences if you’re offering plated options
Song requests for the reception if you want to personalize the playlist
RSVP options for each event if you have multiple celebrations
A well-designed RSVP feature makes tracking guest attendance easy while giving them an effortless way to confirm their plans.
7. Important People
Introduce your bridal party and immediate family members who are part of your special day. A brief bio and a beautiful photo make this section both sentimental and meaningful. You can also add a fun touch by sharing how you met each bridesmaid or groomsman.
8. Special Requests & Guest Experience
Consider adding a section for any unique details that will enhance the guest experience, such as:
A message board for guests to leave well wishes before the wedding
A link to a shared photo album where guests can upload pictures after the event
A song request section for guests to contribute to the wedding playlist
9. Digital Keepsakes
After the wedding, your website can become a space for:
A highlight gallery of professional wedding photos
A digital guestbook with messages from loved ones
A personal thank-you note to guests for attending
A wedding website is more than just logistics—it’s a beautifully curated space that brings your wedding to life and makes guests feel connected, informed, and part of the experience.
