More and more couples are building websites to highlight their engagement and wedding. Some people keep these websites going after the big day and turn it into a blog as they start their life together.
MORE IMPORTANTLY- save yourself a lot of hassle by providing a central “wedding information center” where your guests can go to get answers to their questions such as:
- Where is the ceremony / reception?
- What time does X event start?
- Where are you registered?
… you get the point. The minimal expense in setting up a wedding website can save you a lot of telephone calls and emails. You can even add RSVP options in the website and links to the stores where you’re registered making gift buying even easier. Your wedding website can become the information hub of your big day! Or, why not offer the option to give money via Paypal directly on your website. What could be easier. If you’re getting married, building a wedding website is fun way of sharing your very important event with your family, friends, and the world. After your wedding, retain the site as family info center for friends and family.
How to build a wedding website quickly
Without a doubt, one of the fastest, easiest, and most inexpensive ways to build a wedding website is to use a WordPress wedding theme. Moreover, with WordPress, you can add a blog which you can update with more information. Moreover, it’s very easy to customize WordPress themes such as adding your own images and information (that’s one reason why WordPress is so popular). This article sets out 9 great WordPress wedding themes – these are themes specifically designed for a wedding website to feature you and your spouse and of course your wedding day. In case you’re thinking about going with a free WordPress theme, read this article setting out some of the hazards with some free WordPress themes. My 3 Favorite Wedding WordPress Themes are:
- “Save the Date” (see below),
- “Manhattan” (see below), and
- “Notes of Life” (see below).
9 WordPress Wedding Themes
“Save the Date” Wedding Theme
About Save the Date Wedding Theme: I love the simplicity, yet it has key information on the home page. You also have a built-in blog where you can add a great deal more information. Read my in-depth “Save the Date” review here. With an iThemes theme purchase, you get access to their forum which offers a great deal of assistance in setting up your theme.

Manhattan Theme by StudioPress
Okay, it’s not designed specifically as a wedding theme, but in my view the layout and great StudioPress theme functionality make for a fantastic wedding website. Check it out:
