The wedding guest information page
what to put on it.

2 min read

A wedding guest information page — often called a wedding website — is the single place your guests check for everything: where to be, when, how to get there, where to sleep, what to wear. Done well, it eliminates ninety percent of the questions that otherwise arrive one by one in your messages. Here is what belongs on it, section by section, as implemented in Vowly Event's guest portal.

The wedding guest information page
The short version
  • One page should answer where, when, how to get there, where to stay and what to wear — before guests have to ask.
  • A schedule with times keeps the day running; a map link gets people to the right entrance, not just the right street.
  • Hotel suggestions near the venue save every out-of-town guest the same hour of research.
  • A Q&A section, a moderated photo gallery and a guest book turn the page from a leaflet into the event's home.

The schedule

List the day as guests will live it: ceremony, reception, dinner, party — each with a time and a place. If the ceremony and the reception are in different locations, say how long the drive is. Guests plan babysitters, trains and outfits around this section, so it earns the top slot on the page.

Directions and arrival

A proper map link beats a written address: it opens navigation on the guest's phone and survives autocorrect. Add the details that maps don't know — which gate, where to park, that the venue is a ten-minute walk from the station. In Vowly Event the directions section sits directly on the guest page, one tap from the invitation.

Places to stay

For every out-of-town guest, the first question after "can I bring someone?" is "where do I sleep?". Suggest two or three places near the venue at different price points. You've already done the research; publishing it saves each guest from repeating it.

Q&A — the questions everyone asks

Dress code. Whether children are invited. Whether there's a gift registry. Dietary options. The weather plan for an outdoor ceremony. Every wedding has the same ten questions; a Q&A section answers them once, in writing, instead of ten times in chat. Keep answers short and warm — this section sets the tone for the day as much as the invitation does.

Gallery and guest book

A shared photo gallery gives guests one place to put the pictures that otherwise scatter across phones — with moderation, so you approve what goes public. A guest book collects wishes before and after the day. Together they keep the page alive after the last dance, when it quietly becomes the wedding's archive.

All of this ships as one guest portal in Vowly Event: schedule, directions, hotels, Q&A, gallery and guest book behind a single link, in nine languages, with no app and no account for guests. Hosts get it with every event, starting with a 14-day full-access free trial.
