Wedding Websites 101: What Vendors Provide Sites & What to Look For

A wedding website isn’t just a digital invitation—it’s a central hub that saves you time, streamlines guest communication, and helps set expectations in style. For pop-up and micro weddings especially, keeping everything simple and accessible is key.

Here’s what you need to know to choose the right one:
