When Should You Share Your Wedding Website?
The right time to share your wedding website depends on what you're sharing it alongside. As a general guide, it should go out with (or shortly after) your save-the-date, and definitely no later than your formal invitation.
Typical Sharing Timeline
With the save-the-date (6–12 months out): Include your website link so guests can start planning travel and accommodation early, even if not all details are finalized yet.
With the formal invitation (2–4 months out): By this point, your site should include full logistics, RSVP, and any remaining details guests need.
As a reminder closer to the RSVP deadline: Resend or reference the link to guests who haven't responded yet.
Should You Wait Until the Site Is "Finished"?
No — it's generally better to share the link once the essentials (date, location, basic details) are ready, rather than waiting for every section to be complete. You can continue updating the site after sharing it; guests will simply see the most current version each time they visit.
How to Share It
- Include the link directly on save-the-date cards or digital invitations
- Send it separately via text, email, or WhatsApp
- Mention it verbally when telling people about your engagement, if appropriate
What If You Share It Too Early?
Sharing before your date and venue are confirmed can create confusion if details later change. It's better to wait until those essentials are locked in, even if other sections are still in progress.
