WWW...Why a Weddings, 2018
Oh the digital age, where everything has it’s own website. With this in mind, modern couples are creating websites, to not only give guests important wedding details, but to also show off their union and “how it all began” stories. Will this be part of your wedding process? Let’s run through the pros and cons.
They keep people in the loop
All of your info about the big day is on your wedding website including your wedding countdown, location, dress code, registry, travel plans and a background story. It’s a foolproof method to remind people of who, what, when, where and how. It holds all of the core information plus extra if guests desire to see more. If there happens to be any last minute changes of location or any other detail, the wedding website can keep everyone up to date and on the same page.
Guests never have to worry about losing their invitation A wedding website is great for a forgetful guest who may misplace their invitation on the day of the wedding. Guests who travel, or are invited to many weddings, are more likely to resort to checking websites rather than carrying around their paper invitation. On the day of, with hundreds of people searching for the venue, allowing them to access location and directions via cell phone is a huge help to all.
RSVP with ease We no longer live in a stamp-and-send society and we are way too busy to take 100+ “attending/not attending” calls, thus, digital RSVP’s are a simple alternative. Many wedding websites allow you to RSVP on a link provided, making it extra simple for the bride and groom to tally the guest list.
The registry Wedding websites provide links to the wedding registries, which turn your site into a one-stop shop for guests. My favorite part about wedding websites is the travel gift option that most couples link on the page. Guests can choose something special to send the bride and groom while on honeymoon such as breakfast in bed at their hotel or fresh flowers from the areas gardens.
Share the memories It’s the perfect place to show off your engagement and wedding photos. For family and friends of the bride and groom, it is a must to save photos from the big day. A website makes it easy to share wedding photos without having to send out individual pictures to each guest. With easy editing and uploading, you can share 148
as much or as little as you want from the big day.
