Step 1 - The Design Tab
When you're ready to begin designing your website, the Design tab should be your starting point. It plays a vital role in defining the overall appearance and atmosphere of your site. In our example, we embraced a more minimalistic approach to the website design. We purposely opted not to include an itinerary or registry to uphold a clean and simple aesthetic. This choice was made to prioritize essential information and present a sleek, sophisticated look for the website. Below, we have detailed the specific adjustments that you can make to achieve a similar look and feel.
We have included the specific changes below, along with details as to what each option offers.
- Layout Style: impacts the overall appearance of the website.
- With Borders style selected.
- Single Page View: determines how you and your guests will navigate the website.
- Single page option not selected.
- Header Font: Changes the font style of all titles on the website, such as the names of the couple, the About Us, and the Wedding Party.
- Gabriela Font was used.
- Header color: Changes the color of all titles on the website. For this example, we picked a light yellow to complement the deep purples.
- Hex code #fbf2c4 was used.
- Body Font: Changes the font style of all of the other text on your website. This includes information you submit and text that cannot be altered, like the Accommodation section.
- Abhaya Libre was used.
- Accent Color: Changes the color of the navigation bar, along with the buttons on the website.
- Hex code #8f6f92 was used.
- Background Color: Changes the actual background. It also determines the color of the text on the navigation bar. It is important not to use the same color for the Accent and Background color as this will cause visibility issues.
- Hex code #685B7C was used.
- Background Image: This is what will be displayed on the landing page of your website. You can add a personalized image, or you can select from one of our stock images that we offer.
If you want to change the white body font on your website, please note that this feature is not currently available from your Guest Dashboard. You can reach out directly to our team for assistance with making this adjustment.
Step 2 - About Us Tab
Under the About Us tab, you can add the following features to customize your website to your unique love story. You can also add a custom message for your guests. This is a great spot to call attention to any important details your guests won't want to miss!
- About Us: This section offers you the perfect chance to share the lovely story of how you first met, your unforgettable first date, amusing anecdotes about your relationship, or any other details you wish to include. It's a wonderful opportunity to add a personal touch to your website and allow your guests to get to know you better.
- Message from the Couple: In this section, feel free to share additional details with your guests, whether it's FAQs, travel dates, or any other important information you'd like to ensure your guests know about.
- Gallery: This section allows you to share up to 10 lovely photos with your guests. Please make sure each photo is 5mb or less in size and consider using Jpeg files for best results.
While we are not able to create additional sections at the moment, we are able to create headers to help separate important information for your guests. If you wish to add any unique headers, please contact our team for assistance.
Step 3 - The Wedding Party Tab
In the Wedding Party Tab, you have the fantastic opportunity to showcase your amazing wedding party members in a stylish and organized manner. Customize the layout by placing each member in one of two columns and choose from various titles, such as Bridesmaids, Groomsmen, Maid of Honor, Best Man, or create your own unique titles to match your wedding party. Additionally, you can add a personal touch by sharing stories or descriptions of each individual, highlighting their special bond with you and the significant role they play on your big day.
Step 4 - The Wedding Itinerary Tab
The Wedding Itinerary Tab provides you with the ability to create a detailed schedule of events for your special day. You can include multiple events, each with specific details, such as the name, date, time, location, and a brief description. This feature ensures that your guests are well-informed about the timeline of the celebrations, whether it's the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner reception, or any other event you have planned.
As we were going for a cleaner more minimalistic style in this example, we opted to not include an itinerary.
Step 5 - Registry
This section provides an easy way for your guests to access your gift registries or wish lists. By turning these links into clickable buttons on your website, guests can effortlessly browse and purchase gifts for your special day, whether you've registered for traditional gifts, experiences, or charitable donations. This simplified process ensures a stress-free gift-giving experience for both you and your guests.
With this example, we did not add a registry but rather added a note to the Message from the Couple section requesting guests to not bring presents.
