How to Share Your Wedding Website With Guests
Once your wedding website is ready, getting the link in front of guests matters just as much as building the site itself. Here are the most effective ways to share it, depending on your guest list and communication style.
Direct Sharing Methods
Text message. For close friends and family, a simple text with the link is quick and personal.
Email. Useful for larger guest lists or when you want to include additional context in the message.
WhatsApp or messaging apps. Popular for reaching guests internationally, especially where texting internationally isn't practical.
Digital invitations. Embedding the link directly into a digital invitation means guests find your website the moment they open the invite.
Printed Sharing Methods
If you're also sending printed save-the-dates or invitations, include:
- The full website URL printed clearly
- A QR code guests can scan directly to the site, which is often easier than typing a URL manually
Sharing With Different Guest Groups
Not everyone needs to receive the link the same way. Consider:
- Close family and wedding party: Personal text or call, ideally with some added context
- General guest list: Email or digital invitation with the link included
- Guests less comfortable with technology: A phone call or printed card with clear instructions, alongside the digital link
When to Re-Share the Link
- After the save-the-date, once more details are added
- Alongside the formal invitation
- As a reminder a few weeks before the RSVP deadline
- Right before the wedding, with any final logistics updates
Common Mistakes When Sharing
- Sending a broken or mistyped link
- Assuming every guest will find the link easily without a direct message
- Not testing the link yourself on a phone before sending it out
- Sharing it only once and not following up with guests who haven't visited
