D. Adding your Gift Registry is an easy way for guests to shop your Must-Haves













 



Formatting Options

When it comes to formatting, you might want to first include a playf-

ul tagline, and then outline the key features of your wedding website that will assist guests in their preparations. (When, Where, How to get there, Wedding party, RSV




P, FAQ section etc..)

Note: Adding the wedding party with a quick caption below their photo is a cute way to introduce them to your family




 




Should I Write our love story

Adding a love story allows the guest that my have missed bits and pieces of your relationship to catch up. However try to make sure your story is easy to read.

Between 100 – 250 words is usually ideal to give your guests a brief summary of your relationship journey so far.


If you don't want to lump all of the details into one long, winding paragraph, try adding a break after every 2-3 sentences. (Ex: Between and man, woman and the city that made it happen ( insert stanza))...






 

Conclusion

Constructing your website is customizable to your need and personality. Best thing about it is that there are so many options and no right or wrong way to get it done.
