Best if the directions are easy and simple to follow. Do not give your guests a hard time reaching your venue.

• Hotel room number and information

If you reserve hotel rooms for your guests from different cities or states, this is the right place to say it so. Include on your site the complete name of the hotel, the room numbers, and the address. If there is a charge they need to pay, this is also the right place to say it.

Make sure that rates, including discount codes and deadlines, are well noted. If the rooms are all sold out, do not forget to upgrade your site so that your guests are aware if they need to find a different booking.

• Things they can enjoy

This space is for your guests who are coming from different states.

• Wedding party

Why not give your guests a glimpse of the names of your wedding party? Not only just the names but best put pictures on each. Share your guests a short bio of how you become friends or why did you choose that particular person.

Writing as much information as you can is nice, anyway, it is free. This will surely melt your wedding party’s heart.

• Wedding vendors

Let them know the wedding vendors who will be attending your wedding. This is also a good way to let these vendors know they are appreciated.

Do not put just their business name but also what they offer, their expertise, and their address and contact information too.

• Wedding sponsors

Just in case you have wedding sponsors, make sure to include them on your wedding website. Anyway, this can be one of the things you included in your proposal so better do it. After posting their business on the site make sure that you show it to them so they know that you are really doing what is agreed.
