More and more couples are deciding to create a personal wedding website these days to share their big day with family and friends. A personal wedding website can be a great way to get all the information out for your big day, but it doesn’t have to stop there. A common misconception regarding wedding websites is that the site is only useful once you have all your plans set and need to get the information out to your guests. Many couples just don’t realize that they can use the website to let their guests share in the planning stages of the wedding, and more importantly share in their new life together after the ceremony. Many design companies offering wedding packages give couples the ability to keep the website online after the wedding for a small yearly fee. This is a great way to share the beginning of your life together with friends and family. When thinking about a website for your wedding it is easy to list the obvious advantages of putting your information online. Main features that are usually included are Online RSVP, Registry Information, Ceremony Details, Photo Gallery, etc. If a couple doesn’t have the main details of their wedding worked out yet is the website idea still useful? Sure it is. A great way to keep your guests involved with your big day is to use the website to detail the planning stages of the wedding. If your website has a Blog or Poll feature, this is a great opportunity to get input from family and friends about ideas you have for the wedding. You can also include pages about his proposal and save the date information at this time. If you plan on having a site professionally designed, make sure to use your design consultant’s expertise. The designers work with a great number of brides and can usually give you great feedback on ideas for site content and also suggest things you may have not considered. We’ve explored how a personal wedding website can be helpful in the planning stages now let’s answer a more important question… After the reception is there any reason to keep our website up and running? A personal wedding website makes a great transition into a personal website. A good deal of wedding website packages, include both a website and a unique domain name. To clarify, a unique domain name may be your names (http://michelleandandrew.com) or possibly your last name (http://www.thesmiths.com). Most companies will let you keep this domain and for a small fee will update the content of the site for you. Just because the wedding is over doesn’t mean you can’t keep your friends and family updated on your new life together. A wedding is just the beginning of your new life together. Some of your most important life decisions are made shortly after your wedding day. Why not share these with your family and friends. In the short time after your wedding you can use the site to post information and pictures from your honeymoon, you can post links to pictures taken by your photographer, and also use the gallery to share pictures taken by your guests. More importantly as you move forward in life together use the site to share life changing moments. Shortly after being married a large percentage of couples will purchase a new home or have a child. Hopefully, if you’re lucky, it will be both. The website is a great way to share these experiences with relatives and friends who don’t live close enough to share these experiences with you in person.
