Top Wedding Website Builders for Every Couple

One of the most important first steps in your journey to the aisle is creating a wedding website. This way your friends and family can stay closely connected to your wedding details as your special day nears. However, unless you are website savvy and can code your own site, consider using one of the many free wedding website builders available. Or, for a more personalized experience, upgrade to a paid platform that offers premium features at an additional cost.

Wedding website builders truly do the hard work for you when it comes to creating a site. They enable you to create pages that include details about the ceremony, information about the reception, links to your wedding registries, maps and area information, photos, facts about you and your wedding party, an online guest book, and a place where your guests can RSVP (although, we always recommend a separate RSVP card as part of your wedding stationery suite as well). 

Built-in tools and templates help you quickly and easily add your information and photos to your site, while customization features allow you to choose colors and themes that coordinate with your wedding design. Today, many wedding websites even give you the option to add a personalized domain name, security features, and a mobile website. With dozens of wedding website builders to choose from, however, it can be hard to know where to start. Here are a few of our favorite options.
