Branch Blog Vol 13: Wedding Website Must-Haves (So People Stop Texting You)
What to Include on Your Wedding Website
Planning a wedding? Congratulations! 🎉 One of the first things many couples do after setting a date is create a wedding website. It’s the perfect way to keep your guests in the loop and get everyone excited about the big day.
Not sure what to include? No worries—we’ve got you covered with the must-haves and some fun extras to make your site helpful and personal.
Need a little inspiration? Here’s my very own wedding website from my big day: theknot.com/becomingabranch 💍
1. Your Love Story
Let’s be real—everyone loves a good love story. Share how you met, your first date, the proposal, or any special milestones. Keep it short, sweet, and true to you.
Bonus Tip: Add a few favorite photos together!
2. Wedding Day Details
This is the info your guests will come back to again and again. Make sure it’s clear and easy to find:
Date & time
Venue name and address
Ceremony and reception times
Dress code (if you have one)
3. Schedule of Events
If your wedding includes more than one event—like a welcome dinner, brunch, or after-party—list everything with times, locations, and any RSVP needs.
4. Travel & Accommodation
Especially helpful for out-of-town guests! Include:
Hotel recommendations or blocks
Directions to the venue
Nearest airports and transportation tips
Parking info
5. RSVP Section
Most wedding websites offer built-in RSVP tools—super convenient! You can ask about:
Attendance
Meal choices (if applicable)
Plus ones
6. Registry Info
Link directly to your gift registry (or registries). If you prefer no gifts or a honeymoon fund, let your guests know here with a kind note.
7. Wedding Party Intros
Show some love to your bridesmaids, groomsmen, or chosen crew. Share a photo, fun fact, or how you met. It makes things more personal and fun for guests!
8. FAQs Section
Answer common questions ahead of time, like:
Are kids invited?
What’s the dress code?
Will there be transportation between venues?
Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?
9. Photo Gallery
