You are getting married! Congratulations! Now it's time to let everyone know when the big day is. Like many people in this modern age, you may want to create a beautiful wedding announcement website so that invitees can easily find all the information about the wedding. A website builder is very useful.

There are, of course, many programs available that you can use to create such a website. But which website builder is the best? If you want a service from one of the best website builders you can create a great wedding announcement website. In that case, you can use all the tools and features you need to let your guests know when the big day is.

Wix

Wix offers a number of options for posting a great wedding announcement online. You can build your own website by using the drag-and-drop editor. In addition, you can also choose to select one of the preconfigured wedding or party templates.

Wix even offers multiple themes designed specifically to help you design a wedding announcement page. The templates available in this website builder are called Upcoming Wedding, Wedding Invitation and Wedding RSVP.

If you choose to build a web page, you can select apps from the app store to personalize your website.

• Wix Events helps you organize and plan your wedding
• Wix Photo Albums offers the option to add engagement or wedding photos
• Wix Weather is a feature you can use to keep guests updated on the weather forecast for the big day

For the best results, it is best to opt for the unlimited subscription. If you choose the Connect Domain subscription to create a website, you get a limited storage space and bandwidth of 500 MB and 1 GB respectively. In addition, ads will appear on your web pages. The Combo plan offers you slightly more options, but in that case too, the storage space and bandwidth are limited.

Site123's website builder

Site123 is another simple website builder that gives you the ability to create a website. Like Wix, the platform offers a number of wedding announcement templates, but the choice isn't nearly as wide as Wix's.

But if you choose to use Site123, you get the following features that you can use to create your website:

• Scheduling is a feature guests can use to indicate whether or not to accept the invitation
• Photo galleries can be used to add photos from your engagement and wedding
• Personal blog provides a way to inform your guests about the upcoming wedding and post special announcements
• Responsive web design to allow your friends and family to access your website via mobile devices

We think one of the biggest benefits is that Site123's website builder gives you the option to create web pages in multiple languages. If you have relatives who live in other countries and don't speak Dutch, you can automatically translate your web pages into other languages to keep these people informed.

In order to get the most out of the available options, we would like to advise you not to opt for the free version but for the premium subscription. If you choose the free version, you get very limited bandwidth and storage space.

WordPress.com

If you're looking for ideas to create a website for your upcoming wedding, WordPress has a lot to offer in this area. Of all the platforms, WordPress offers by far the most templates that you can use to create a wedding announcement website. This website builder offers both free and paid templates and you can use the following very useful features, among others:

• Web pages with a feature that invitees can use to indicate whether or not they accept the invitation
• Event Planning Pages
• Desired gifts section
• Section for the wedding
• Schedules for venues and events
• Photo and video galleries
• Responsive design

The disadvantage of WordPress is that compared to other website builders, you are less guided during the design process for creating your website. For example, you have to configure the templates yourself to a certain extent. Also, WordPress does not provide an editor for dragging and dropping elements.

Unless you have a cheap premium template or find a free template that fits your needs, it's best to opt for the premium plan to create your website. If you choose the free version, the options to customize your templates and designs are very limited. And if you choose the Personal plan, you can't use premium templates. On the other hand, you can use an unlimited number of premium templates if you take out the Premium plan.

Weebly website builder

Weebly is similar to Wix's website builder in that the platform allows you to create a wedding announcement website by selecting one of the templates and using the drag-and-drop editor. Weebly also offers you the option to play videos of, for example, the bridal couple or the wedding location in the background.

Weebly also offers several useful apps that you can use to design the website for your wedding. Here are some of these very good features:

• Stay22: offers guests options to book a hotel or stay via Airbnb
• Countdown timer: allows you to display a timer on the website that counts down to the big day
• Bablic translation: translate your website for guests who don't speak Dutch
• Forms: Create personal forms that guests can use to register and indicate whether or not they accept the invitation

We would again recommend that you do not opt for the free version as in that case you will only have a limited storage space and advertisements will be displayed on your web pages. That is why it is better to take out the starter subscription because in that case you can use unlimited storage space and bandwidth to design your website.

SimpleSite

SimpleSite provides the ability to create a wedding announcement website. But of all the website builders on this list, this platform offers the fewest features you can use to design your website. The platform features a number of templates that you can edit, but compared to other website builders, the designs are rather minimalistic.

But if you want to design a website or are looking for a suitable template, the platform does offer a number of features that you can use. For starters, SimpleSite allows you to add an unlimited amount of images and video files to your website. This is ideal if you want to put a lot of media on your web pages.

You also have the option to sell up to five products through your site. This is especially useful if the wedding is being held at a venue that requires guests to purchase a ticket in advance. You can also use this function to offer invitees the opportunity to send you a gift in a simple way.

If you want to use SimpleSite, the Pro plan is the way to go. For the free version, you cannot use the functions mentioned above.

Jimdo

Jimdo is a website builder that makes up for the lack of certain features by providing some very good video tutorials. Both the templates and the website builder are easy to use, but there is no possibility to use apps or plugins for your website with a wedding announcement.

The platform does offer a lot of support with regard to adding features that you can use for your website. There is also an extensive manual available that explains how you can create your own website and add, for example, the following functions:

• Page with an introduction
• Register
• Web page for hotel and travel information
• Details about the event
• Feature invitees can use to indicate whether or not they accept the invitation
• Photos from the wedding or engagement

In addition, video tutorials are available that explain how to install widgets. This allows you to, for example, post Pinterest boards, use social media channels and share photos.

The disadvantage of adding features is that you will have to spend more time creating your website compared to other website builders. On the other hand, Jimdo offers you plenty of good support during this process. All in all, this platform will provide you with more help while creating your wedding announcement website than any of the other website builders discussed in this article.

If you're going to use Jimdo to design your website, the Pro plan is enough. If you choose the free version, you can only use the basic functions and your storage space is very limited. To be able to use the Pro subscription for a year, you pay about the same as renting a tuxedo.
