Create Your Own Wedding Website

Should you get a wedding website?

Create your own wedding website or not... that is the question!

I say, go for it! Why? Well, mostly because it's convenient. It actually simplifies planning and solves many awkward wedding problems.

In fact, it is important to planning a K.i.s.s wedding that it has been included in our top 5 simple wedding ideas list.

How a Wedding Website Will Help

It Will Save You Time and Hassle

Keep your family informed without having to call a million people! keep parts of our family informed and involved. Just include the url in your invite or invite enclosure and everyone gets what they want - it's a win win!

Save the Environment ... And Money!

Many people include maps, potential hotels etc. in the invite package or a separate mailing altogether. Avoid the extra expense and time and post it online. If you update it, send a mass email...problem solved!

Make Everyone Feel Involved

Everyone loved our wedding website, but, it was equally special for our friends and family around the world (and we had a lot) who couldn't make it.

Our grandparents were both to ill to take the long trip and it made them so happy to see the photos posted the very next day - thanks to my wonderful sister!

Avoid the Awkward Questions

I don't know about you, but, I found it really awkward telling people about our wedding registries. We didn't want one, but were urged by many that it was essential.

It was especially useful for us because we registered at a few places - included some small mom & pop stores in the city.

Wed Quarters

This site also has a lot of really nice designs that are simple but really lovely. They also seem to have a few more features than what you'd get above. I guess it just depends on if you need those features and whether or not you like the designs.
