Quick answer

Put the information guests need to attend your wedding on the website: event dates and times, venues and maps, RSVP instructions, dress guidance, travel notes, accessibility information and a contact for urgent questions. Add your story and photos after the practical details are easy to find.

What this guide helps with

  • Use a practical wedding website checklist.
  • Organize details so guests can scan them on a phone.
  • Keep confirmed logistics separate from optional personal content.

Key takeaways

  • Every event needs its own date, time and location.
  • Explain RSVP deadlines and which events guests should answer for.
  • Keep the page current when details change.

Essential information to include

  • Couple names and a short welcome.
  • A separate card for every function, including date, time and venue.
  • Map links, arrival instructions, parking or transport notes.
  • RSVP instructions, response deadline and event choices.
  • Dress guidance and meal or accessibility notes, if relevant.
  • Travel, accommodation and family contact details for out-of-town guests.
  • A short FAQ for recurring questions.

Put guest logistics first; personal details can follow.

What each event card should say

Each function should answer five questions: what is happening, when should I arrive, where is it, what should I wear or bring, and how do I tell the hosts I am coming? For an Indian wedding, list Mehendi, Haldi, Sangeet, ceremony, reception or other events separately rather than burying them in one paragraph. Only include the functions relevant to your wedding.

Travel, access and practical notes

Out-of-town guests may need hotel suggestions, airport or station information, local transport guidance and a contact person. Share only confirmed arrangements. If the venue has stairs, limited parking or other access constraints, state them clearly and offer a way to ask for help.

Personal sections to add if useful

An Our Story section, a small photo gallery and family introductions can make the site feel personal. Keep each one concise and avoid placing the RSVP or schedule behind a long animation. Guests often open the page to answer one practical question, so let them get there quickly.

Keep the site current

Assign one person to own schedule updates. When a venue or time changes, update the website and send guests a message that points to the corrected details.

What is the most important thing to put on a wedding website?

The confirmed event schedule with dates, times, venues, directions and RSVP instructions. Those details help guests decide where to go and let families plan attendance.

Should I include a dress code?

Include it when it helps guests prepare. Keep the guidance brief, clear and considerate; explain whether it is a suggestion or a requirement.

Should I put a phone number on the website?

A contact for urgent event questions can help, but choose who is comfortable receiving messages and avoid sharing private numbers without consent.
