01 — PURPOSE
What Should Be Included in a Wedding Invitation
Your wedding website is not a digital scrapbook first. It is the clearest, calmest place for guests to find the date, venue, schedule, dress code and RSVP form without messaging you individually.
The useful test
Could a guest open the link two hours before the ceremony and immediately know where to go, what time to arrive and what to wear?
Keep the hierarchy simple
Names and date establish the invitation. The venue and RSVP answer the next two questions. Everything else can follow in a clear editorial sequence.
02 — CONTENT
Wedding Website Our Story Examples
✓Names, wedding date and invitation line
✓Ceremony and reception schedule
✓Venue address and map link
✓Embedded RSVP form
✓Dress code with useful examples
✓Travel and accommodation notes
✓Gifts or registry information
✓Contact person and FAQ
Gallery and "our story" sections are optional. Add them when they make the invitation feel personal, not because every wedding template includes them.
04 — RSVP
Wedding RSVP Questions
Every extra field reduces completion. Start with attendance, guest count and event selection. Add meal choice, dietary restrictions or transport only when your venue or planner genuinely needs them.
Recommended order
Name → attendance → events → plus-one → meal → dietary restrictions → optional message.

05 — SHARING
Wedding Website Domain Name Ideas
A public link is simplest. Password protection works well when privacy matters. Private invite links are best when different households are invited to different events or have different plus-one allowances.
Where QR codes help
Add one to printed save-the-dates, welcome signs or detail cards. It should point directly to the published wedding website, not to a generic homepage.
