Joy is a versatile platform that offers tools for wedding websites, registries, and planning all in one place. It's simple to use and personalize, with different layouts, templates, and artistic features like accent colors and fonts. Joy also lets you add features like photos, an event countdown, and links to transportation services, hotels, Airbnbs, and even booking assistants to help find a place for your guests to stay. Be sure to include a link for guests to easily download an app to keep up with your wedding updates. Creating a custom domain is an option, too, but understand that it requires a separate domain hosting purchase.

You can also shop directly from the website builder to create your registry. Depending on your needs, you can select physical gift options or create a cash or experiences fund. Joy even offers several wedding-planning tools for the period before the big day, enabling you to create a wedding events schedule, plan the guest list, manage RSVPs, and send reminder emails to your guests.

If you’re not quite ready to launch your site yet or want to keep your wedding details exclusive, you can keep your details private by using a password to protect your site.

Building a wedding website is just one of the many features of The Knot’s web- and app-based platform. You can sort by color, style, and season, and choose from hundreds of templates with a variety of color themes to make it your own. Navigation is simple throughout the platform, and it’s easy to add in all of your important day-of information, from sharing your story as a couple to adding photos and wedding party details.

The site allows you to choose a custom Knot URL for free, or you can customize a full domain for an additional fee of $20. A wedding registry can also be built through The Knot Registry Store and can be integrated into your website’s registry page. And with 17 partner sites and registries, The Knot’s users can sync registries from sites like West Elm, Williams Sonoma, and CB2 to show up on one registry for easy streamlining.

Couples can also use the built-in RSVP form to collect responses on the website and be sure to make use of additional wedding planning features such as the site’s budgeter tool, finding vendors, and ordering invitations.

WedSites offers multiple tiers to help you choose the ideal wedding website builder for your needs. The Lite tier is free and allows customization through a variety of designs. The higher Standard tier integrates a guest list database, allowing you to track RSVPs and update your guests via email.

Even with the basic tier, it’s possible to build and customize a website with a wide range of small details like text, accent, background colors, fonts, spacing, header placement, and more. There are a variety of templates to help you start the creative process, plus plenty of features to build in when building the page itself; you can create a scrolling site with multiple pages, integrate buttons with links to registries, and check privacy settings for a code-protected site. Once your site is live, you can access data analytics to see the number of site visits (to ensure guests are looking at it), collect RSVPs, and use other wedding planning tools like a seating chart builder or budget calculator. Note that some of these features require upgrading to a higher tier.

Wix is a free website builder useful for portfolios, businesses, and, of course, weddings. The program offers hundreds of templates for users, with over 25 specific to wedding websites.

Once you’re used to the interface, you’ll discover that the options are endless for personalization–edit fonts, colors, links, and even add photos of you and your partner. Custom domains are also possible, but a paid upgrade to a higher-tiered plan is required. Wix also allows you to collect RSVPs using a simple form.
