With society gleaning most of its information from the internet, it has become essential to create a well-curated website to share the details of your big day. But where do you start and what should it contain? Chong Seow Wei draws up a guide to creating an online memory bank of your special day.
Down To Specifics
Invitation cards are a must but can get lost in the mail or become forgotten beneath other letters. A wedding website is handy for listing (and updating, if there are last-minute changes) basic details about your wedding ceremony, such as the date, time, venue and directions. Make the details immediately visible when guests arrive at your site, even for less tech-savvy visitors. An early heads-up about your wedding can be given by posting a Save-The-Date alert several months ahead, to boost RSVPs later.
Share The Love
If you’re not one of those who likes to narrate the story of how you and your spouse-to-be met, fell in love and got engaged to everyone you meet, pour it all out on your wedding website. No long novel-standard text needed; take the short and sweet approach. “Giving a glimpse into the personalities of you and your spouse to-be helps to excite the people on your invitation list,” says Hannah Chong of Heaven’s Gift. So, go ahead and share both of your nicknames, hobbies, the causes you advocate, and life mottos.
The Bridal Entourage
Apart from the bridal couple, guests will want to familiarise themselves with your wedding party. Use the website to share how you met them and why they fit their respective roles. It gives a glimpse into your relationships with important people in your lives. Make it a fun read, Chong advises: “Think of quirky sobriquets for your bridesmaids and groomsmen when introducing them online, to hint to guests of the vibe they can expect at your event.”
