Now days wedding websites are a great tool to keep your family, friends, and wedding guests informed about the upcoming celebration. Some people may say that event websites are for the next generation and that parents and grandparents of our generation may not be computer savvy. But, I believe they are a great tool. There are a few things to keep in mind when looking into wedding websites.

Wedding websites are fun! Make sure you find the perfect one for you. Nearlyweds Wedding Websites (one of our sponsors) offers easy to use affordable websites. They have partnered with some of today’s trendiest wedding stationary designers and have built wedding websites to match stationary and event themes. Wedding Paper Divas (another fabulous sponsor) is one of those designers. You can choose your design, color, and order the same design for your stationary.

Make sure that you include all the details, maps, locations, and activities for your guests. Include pictures of the wedding party and make an album of you and your fiance. What I love about wedding websites is when couples include the story of how they met and their engagement. If you make your wedding website easy to navigate, your friends and family will keep going back for updates.

With Nearlyweds they have an easy drag and drop editing feature. You can always keep the website going after the wedding and share the photographers photos from your day. Don’t forget to blog about the planning too. You don’t have to do it everyday, but let’s be honest… everyone LOVES to hear about who you picked for your vendors.

Happy Planning!
