What to Put on a Wedding Website: The Complete Checklist

The best wedding websites answer questions before guests ask them. Use this checklist to decide what belongs on yours.

The essentials

1. Names, date and place. Put them at the very top. Guests should know the basics within two seconds.
2. A welcome message. Two or three warm sentences set the tone.
3. Schedule. Start times for each event and when guests should arrive. Add an end time so people can book transport.
4. Venue and directions. A map link for each venue, parking notes and the nearest station or airport.
5. RSVP. A short form with a clear deadline.

Helpful extras

• Dress code. Be specific: "black tie", "garden party, flat shoes" or "traditional formal".
• Travel and stays. List two or three hotels at different prices, and any discount codes.
• FAQ. Children, plus-ones, weather plans, gifts, photography and food.
• Your story. A short timeline with a few photos is the part guests enjoy most.
• Registry or gift note. Say it kindly and keep it short.
• Contact. One person guests can message on the day.

What to leave out

• Long essays. Guests skim on phones. Keep paragraphs to two or three lines.
• Private details. Do not publish your home address or any personal information about guests.
• Too many colours and fonts. A template already handles this for you.

A simple order that works

Hero and countdown, invitation, events, travel, story, gallery, RSVP, FAQ, registry, contact. Every template here follows a similar flow, so you can switch sections on or off without redesigning anything.
