Creating Your Wedding Website


I always recommend creating a wedding website as a central location for all of your wedding information - but I have some special tips to share to do this most effectively:
  • Buy your personal domain - i.e. www.bobandbill.com - thru GoDaddy.com (my preferred site for domain registration)
  • Set up a free wedding website thru a site like WeddingWire.com which has some nice templates and allows you to be two brides or two grooms (you have to look through and change the icons, under settings)
  • Go to the Manage My Domains section on GoDaddy and set the personal domain to forward to the often-lengthy URL provided by WeddingWire or your other wedding website
  • Share your personal domain - i.e. www.bobandbill.com - on your save the dates and other wedding materials
  • After the wedding, when the professional photographs are ready, back on GoDaddy, change the forwarding destination of the personal domain to the link provided by your photographer.
  • Tell your guests to go to your personal domain to view your professional wedding photos.
