8 Best Wedding Website Builders of 2026

Joy is nearly level with Zola and is the better free pick when a wedding has several events with different guest lists. Its personalized schedules let you decide who sees and can RSVP to the rehearsal dinner or a post-wedding brunch, and individual pages can sit behind the wedding password. The RSVP system supports follow-up questions and limits on plus-ones, and replies update the guest list automatically. Joy's pricing page lists the planning dashboard, wedding website, all-in-one registry, mobile app, unlimited guests, online RSVP, hundreds of digital invites, multiple editor accounts and personal support at $0 a month. The company says it makes money when guests buy registry items Joy sells, and from optional upgrades: custom domain names, text messaging and premium stationery designs. Couples can buy a domain through Joy or forward one they already own. The registry supports zero-fee cash funds and gifts added from other stores, so you are not tied to one retailer.

Zola is the strongest free option because the website is one part of a connected account. Zola says couples can choose from over 600 templates, add ceremony and reception details, travel and hotel blocks, a photo and video gallery and online RSVPs, then share one custom URL. The guest list syncs from the start, so RSVPs land in the same list you use for invitations, and the RSVP form can ask for meal preferences. A registry link sits on the site, and couples who already built a Zola registry can attach it with the Add Existing Registry option. Password protection is optional and can be switched off later in Privacy Settings. Zola states that websites are free to create and publish, with one exception: a custom domain, priced from $17.99, or you can point a domain you already own at the site. The trade-off is that the site sits inside Zola's store, so it fits couples who plan to use the Zola registry or stationery anyway.

Riley & Grey charges for what free platforms give away, and argues that the fee pays for no ads, no upsells and personal support. Couples can design the website, invitations and registry for free with no time limit, then pay to publish: $39 a month or $299 for a year, prices in USD. A $39 one-time Reserve plan holds a domain name and design and counts toward the membership. Every membership includes a custom domain that Riley & Grey will transfer to you when you leave. The RSVP tools are the main draw: forms can collect meal choices, travel details or song requests, and in Advanced Mode you control which events each guest is invited to, RSVPs for and sees on the site. Coordinating digital invitations can be sent to any number of guests, and high-resolution files can be exported for printing elsewhere. The registry accepts any gift, experience or cash goal. The cost is the drawback: a year runs $299 against $0 at Zola or Joy.

WedSites sells wedding websites as one-time payments rather than subscriptions. The builder offers themes or a blank start plus wedding-specific blocks for RSVP, schedule, wedding party, travel and accommodation, registry and FAQs, with matching digital save-the-dates and invites. Basic costs $39 and covers the site builder, optional password protection, visitor analytics, custom domain support and 6 months of hosting, but no online RSVPs. Standard, at $99, adds online RSVPs, RSVPs for multiple events, digital invites and email sending and tracking, with 12 months of hosting. Pro, at $199, adds the planning tools, printable reports, a multilingual website and 24 months of hosting. Extra hosting costs $10 a month or $60 a year, and all plans carry a 14-day money-back guarantee. WedSites says it supports couples worldwide in their local currencies and languages. Most couples who want RSVPs should budget for Standard, not Basic.

Appy Couple is the pick for couples who want guests to have a real app, not only a mobile website. The website and native app share one design, chosen from over 500 options, including collaborations with fashion and lifestyle names, and information stays in sync between them. Guests who download the app from the App Store or Google Play keep the details offline. The RSVP manager supports custom forms for travel, menu or song requests, family groups where one member replies for everyone, and plus-ones, and responses download as a spreadsheet. Couples can show each guest only the events they are invited to and choose an open site, a password or a guest list match by name or email. Guests can share photos before and during the wedding. The package covers the website, app and digital invites, billed annually or monthly; print invites and custom domains are extra, and Appy Couple says most domains cost US$19.99 a year. Our fetch showed prices in euros, so check the US price.

Wix is a general website builder rather than a wedding platform, but its wedding templates come ready to collect replies. Several templates include an RSVP section powered by the Wix Events app, which also manages the guest list, and template copy suggests adding photos and registry links. That means the registry lives elsewhere, at Zola, Joy or a store, and you link to it. The drag-and-drop editor gives more control over layout than Zola or Joy, which suits couples who want a site that looks nothing like a template. Wix offers a free plan with no credit card required, and paid plans add a custom domain, free for the first year, with a 14-day money-back guarantee. Our check showed prices that include GST and a note that USD prices are for reference only, so we marked the price as pending. Choose Wix if design control matters more than built-in wedding features.

Carrd is not a wedding product, but it is the cheapest way here to put a simple wedding page on your own domain. Sites are single pages built from templates. A free account lets you start, and Pro plans are billed yearly: Pro Lite costs $9 a year for 3 sites without branding but uses Carrd URLs; Pro Standard costs $19 a year and adds custom domains with SSL, forms and embeds; Pro Plus costs $49 a year and adds password protection and advanced forms. For a wedding, that means you can publish the date, venue, schedule and registry links, and collect replies with a custom form or an embedded form tool such as Typeform. What you do not get is a guest list, RSVP tracking per guest, meal counts or a registry, all of which Zola and Joy include free. Carrd suits couples who mainly want a short address on the invitation and a page with the essentials. A 7-day Pro trial needs no credit card.

Squarespace lists weddings among the personal sites it supports, alongside portfolios and resumes, and it is a fit for couples who care most about how the site looks. It is a general builder, so the wedding features you get on Zola or Joy, such as a guest list, per-guest RSVP tracking and a registry, are not built in; you add pages and link out to a registry. Squarespace says it has no free plan, but every site starts with a 14-day free trial that needs no credit card. Annual plans include one year of free domain registration, so the custom domain costs nothing in year one. The Basic plan allows 2 contributors, which covers both partners, and all plans include secure hosting and unlimited bandwidth. Our check showed prices in Polish zloty, so the US price is pending. Squarespace ranks last here because couples pay a subscription for a site that still lacks RSVP and registry tools.
