Tag: custom wedding websites

One wedding task that has been looming on my to-do list is to create a wedding website. In this day and age, with family members and friends spread out across the country (and the globe!), a wedding website is such an essential tool for brides and grooms. Not only does it give Grandma the chance to read all about your proposal story and check out your engagement pictures, it’s also the perfect place to house important information about accommodations, your registries, and much more. With so many people traveling to weddings (90% of Dave and I’s guests are from out-of-state, for example!), having all of this info in one easily accessible place is invaluable. Considering that an informative website will field lots of phone calls and emails from well-meaning guests with questions, freeing up your time to concentrate on what matter most (preparing for marriage, of course!), we consider it a must!

In our opinion, the best wedding websites are clean, easy to use, informative, and customizable. That’s why we absolutely love WeddingWoo—from the full photo backgrounds, to the content you can edit to fit your needs, to the handy RSVP manager, they’re a wonderful option for a website that is both functional and visually impressive! We also love the fun additional features WeddingWoo offers, like an animated wedding countdown and an integrated Instagram page that displays all of the pictures from your wedding hashtag.

Let’s be honest, y’all, some wedding websites are kind of boring! Much like your save the date and invitation, your website should fit seamlessly with the style of your big day and get guests excited for what’s to come. And what better to represent your wedding than you? An engagement picture that matches the style of your wedding makes a beautiful background, and all of the fonts and colors on WeddingWoo are up to you (no coding knowledge needed!). A few of our favorites are below, but you can also see lots more customer examples in the WeddingWoo gallery.

WeddingWoo is very reasonably priced, which we know is a huge factor when you’re already shelling out hundreds for your wedding. Simply choose between a one-year or a two-year plan—for each, you pay a one-time flat fee that includes all of the features WeddingWoo offers.

We couldn’t be more excited that WeddingWoo has generously offered three Southern Weddings readers free one-year memberships! Here’s how to enter:

    Beautifully designed websites dont show information or pictures, they share stories! And I would love the chance to share my love story.

    Fell in love with the “story” behind this pin. I can just see Diane Lane walking through Tuscany on her way to a wedding in this! You can practically taste the celebratory gelato. :) So gorgeous. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/93731235969868207/

Sponsored Post: Riley & Grey

by in Sponsor Love on

The world of wedding websites can start to look the same after awhile, don’t you think? Not so with Riley & Grey, a company with some of the most distinctive offerings we’ve ever seen.

Riley & Grey’s goal is to allow your personal style to enter into your online wedding presence, just like it determines every other part of your wedding. Their sites are both gorgeous and informative.

By far my favorite aspect of Riley & Grey is that their designs are limited-edition. Styles are released and retired regularly, but once you purchase a design, it’s yours for as long as you have your site. Such a great compromise between something completely custom and something run-of-the-mill.

Their designs, of course, are beautiful — I love that they feel unique, but that they’re not so specific as to pigeon-hole them into being used for just one wedding “look.” For example, the design above (one of my favorites!) would work for so many weddings with a tailored, preppy feel!

Website features, like an online RSVP option and a guest address collector, can be added or subtracted as needed. Need a little more help setting up? Known for their amazing customer service, Riley & Grey will even walk you through setting up your site, if you’d like.

Of course, the sites are super easy to set up solo. Their customization process is seamless, including real-time editing that lets you add text and upload images and see the changes as you go.

Wedding “look” took a turn mid-course? Not a problem — you can change your template at any time with the click of a button. With so many beautiful options to choose from, we wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to try out a few!

Riley & Grey is invitation-only, to keep the designs fresh and exclusive, but they’re allowing Southern Weddings readers to bypass that step (hooray!). Click here to get started on the good stuff!
