Wedding Websites are becoming more and more popular, however, most of the good ones charge you a monthly fee and usually don’t allow for easy interaction with your friends and family. After all, if you are going to create a wedding website, wouldn’t you want it to be somewhat sociable? A sociable website will allow your friends and family to keep coming back to your website and feel good about helping you plan the wedding of your dreams.
I’ve been blogging for years and it occurred to me. Blogs are easy to install, easy to update, and easy for people to leave comments and suggestions. Why is there no wedding website based on a blog?
What can you do with a Blog?!
Blogs allow for the owner, that would be the bride (you), to express herself daily, weekly, monthly or however often she likes. You (the bride, and may be the groom
) can:
- Well, for one thing.. Blog as often as you see
- Express yourself and your personality
- Create your own private online community
- Have complete control over your wedding blog
- Allow your friends and family to communicate with you
- Keep it private from outsiders
- Create Specific pages for: Song Requests, Your Wedding Songs, How you met, RSVP’s, Guest book, List of Special people like parents, wedding party, etc., Directions to the Reception, Ceremony, or Hotels, Where you are going on your honeymoon, Upcoming Events (Bachelor/Bachelorette parties, Rehearsals, Bridal Shower), Photo albums… You get the idea
- Plan the best wedding you can think of, with the help of your loved ones
- Share ideas on how to save money
- Post links to your wedding vendors and give a Testimonial or review about their service
- write about changes to her schedule
- ask for help with things she has no idea how to do
- get suggestions for the ceremony
- get suggestions for the traditional dances
and an unimaginable amount of other areas that the bride may need help, as she goes on her once in a lifetime, wedding planning adventure.
