What is a wedding website?
A wedding website is a showcase of the biggest day of your life! It allows you to announce your wedding to your family, friends and relatives in an elegant and personal way. It is a time-saving and efficient way of sharing all your wedding information with your guests anywhere in the world. Wedding sites are not only great to keep your guests updated, but they are just as important to share your precious memories, photos and videos after the wedding. A tasteful and professionally designed wedding website truly reflects your personal style and sets the mood of your wedding!

Why do I need a wedding website?
Ringgg...ringggg, "Hey, the dates are here, I am getting married on 10th of December, so please clear your calendar from 8th-11th"
Ringgg... ringgg, "The Bachelor party is at Taj West-end, not the one on MG Road."
Ring Ring "Hi, did you get the invitation card?"
Dealing with the stress and time consumption of planning a wedding is hard enough, having 1000 phone calls per week can just take the fun out of it altogether. You need a personal wedding site. Think of it as your own personal assistant.

Reasons to have a wedding website:
A wedding website makes your special day even more memorable. It allows you to announce your wedding plans and share your precious memories and photos with all your guests, in an elegant and personal way.
Wedding websites allow you, as a couple, to share all the details of your wedding with friends and family no matter where they live.
A wedding website will save you time, energy and money. Just include your website address on your wedding invite and no more dealing with endless phone calls and emails. You can answer all queries with, "its on the website."
A wedding website will enhance your guests' experience, allowing them to view your wedding plans, and if you so wish, make suggestions and have a role in planning your wedding.
Passing your wedding albums around to show your family and friends, or inviting people home to see your photos can be time-consuming. It can be even more difficult when your nearest and dearest are spread across different parts of the world! A wedding website puts it all in one place for everyone to see! Simply upload some photos online and let them enjoy sooner rather than later.
You can also update your website with honeymoon photos and comments; everyone will love to hear about your trip.
You know friends are also waiting for you to bring your wedding CD over, so why make them wait? Webcast your wedding ceremonies so that even those who missed the big day can get a feel of what it was like.
Get a tasteful and professionally designed wedding website, that truly compliments your personal style and the mood of your wedding!

What is a wedding webcast? What is a live webcast? What is ‘on demand’?
A ‘webcast on internet’ is similar to a ‘telecast on TV’.  Just like you can either see a live cricket match on TV or view its recorded version later, similarly you can either have a ‘live webcast’ of your wedding through the internet or make a recorded version of it available to your guests for viewing later. With a ‘live webcast’ your friends/relatives who are unable to make it to the venue can view your wedding ceremonies ‘as they happen’ i.e. in ‘real time’. You can also keep a recorded version of the video on your website, which your friends/relatives can view ‘on demand’ from your wedding website at any time.
...............................................................................................................................................................................................top


What will the wedding website contain?
Your wedding website will contain several web pages which will carry loads of photos and information. Some of the common features are:
:: Home page: This page will contain a welcome note for visitors to your website. It will also have an introductory paragraph of when and where you will be getting married. After the wedding, you can include a thank you message to replace the welcome paragraph.
:: Our Story: Share the romantic way in which your proposal transpired. Share your personal story on how you met your fiancée and vice versa. Everyone will love the details and putting this information online will make a great read for friends and family.
:: About Us: Let everyone know a little more about you, your significant other and the bridal party. This is a great place for baby pictures. Include your home town, your education, current interests, or anything.
:: Wedding Events: This page will contain details about all ceremonies related to the wedding, including dates, times, locations, theme and any other details you would like to add. We could also create a separate page for each event.
:: Photo Gallery: One important feature of wedding websites is of course photos. Remember, the friends and family of your fiancé may hardly know who you are, they will love seeing photos of you both. You can post photos from when you were little tykes right up to your engagement photos
Postwedding, passing your wedding albums around to show to your family and friends, or inviting people home to see them can be time-consuming. It can be even more difficult when your nearest and dearest are spread across different parts of the world! A Wedding website will save you time and money by displaying your wedding photos online!
:: Wedding Video Gallery: Here we will display your wedding events online ‘as they happen’ so that your family and friends can share and be a part of the experience, wherever they are in the country or across the world.
:: Your Very Own Domain Name: Your own website name will help your guests easily find your location on the web and remember it; i.e. "www.yourname.com."
:: Guestbook: Let your visitors leave their best wishes for you and your fiancée on your website.  If your guests signup, we can let also let them know when you make updates to your website.
:: Online RSVP: Save time, money and stress by allowing guests to RSVP right on your own site.
When your guest RSVPs online, you will immediately get an email about it. You can also include the website URL in your invitations for their convenience.
:: Directions and Accommodations: In this page you can include directions to your venue and accommodation information. Maps can be added to this section if provided. You may also wish to use this section to provide out of town guests with local area information and activities to do while visiting for your wedding.
:: Password Protection: You want a wedding website, but you don't want the whole world to see it.  No problem!  We will password protect your site so that only those visitors who you have invited can view your personal wedding web site.
:: Wedding Quizzes/Poll: Make your site more interactive by inviting your visitors to take part in online quizzes and trivia.  This is also a great way to get feedback about proposed plans during the early going.
:: Multiple Languages: You can include multiple languages to accommodate your non-English speaking guests. Currently we offer websites in English & Hindi only.
:: Countdown Clock: You can also display a countdown of the days until your wedding. Its fun and it adds creativity to your website.

Can you explain the process once we’re ready to get started on our site?
We will first discuss your requirements and answer any questions you might have about our service. Then we would suggest a suitable package based on your feedback. Once you approve the package we will ask you to complete the Design Brief. This will help us understand your preferences better.

There will be a separate fee for scanning and touch-ups of print photos.  We strongly advise you to send us copies of photos and not the originals. However, if you would like your photos returned, please specify that clearly.
