Planning your wedding should be part of the fun. Come and join in.
Create your free wedding website and enjoy a simpler way to plan your big day, with invitations, RSVPs, budget tracking, seating plans and photo sharing all taken care of in one place.
There’s more to a wedding than a website.
Most wedding sites stop once the invitations have gone out. This one keeps working through the replies, the menus, the seating and the money, right up to the morning of the day.
Wedding website & stationery
Choose a design you love, then carry the same visual language across your website, save the date, invitation and matching print.
Household guest list & RSVPs
Organise guests into households so one reply updates attendance, meals, dietary records and seating for the whole family at once.
Menus & protected dietary needs
Meal choices and dietary requirements kept in a separate, tighter store, so sensitive information stays protected and still exports for your venue.
Intelligent seating plan
Draw the real room, set who sits together and who never does, and let it arrange the tables around your rules. Print it for the coordinator.
UK planning checklist
Milestones from the registrar to the final fitting, redated automatically if your date moves, and shared with your planner.
Suppliers & budget
Quotes, deposits, balances and instalments, with foreign payments fixed at the rate on the day they were paid. Contracts stay with the supplier.
Gift links
One link to wherever your list lives — a department store, a honeymoon pot, a charity page — with your own words above it. No money passes through us.
Shared wedding inbox
A genuine mailbox at your own wedding address. Both partners and your planner read the same post, so nothing sits in one person's account.
Guest access without accounts
Guests arrive on a household link or a QR code. There is no sign-up, ever, and no password for anybody to forget.
Find a look that feels like you.
Every layout comes with its own typefaces and a carefully selected range of colour palettes, designed to complement each other and keep text easy to read. Personalise your website with your own address and thirteen customisable sections, while seeing your changes as you make them with live previews for both mobile and desktop.
A little help from everyone goes a long way.
Bring your partner, wedding planner and guests together in one place, giving everyone access to the tools and information they need to play their part in your big day.
Partners
Both partners get identical logins. Edit details together, share the wedding inbox, manage the budget and build drafts privately before you publish.
Planners & coordinators
Invite your planner or coordinator and they get their own login — removable at any time — to manage the guest list, update schedules and work the milestones beside you.
Guests
Guests arrive on a household link or the QR code on their invitation. One page updates attendance, meals, dietary needs and seating for the whole family.
Getting answers from everyone shouldn’t be hard work.
No more chasing individuals for food choices or allergy declarations. NearlyWeds bundles guests into households: when one of them scans the QR code or opens their link, they reply for everybody, choose meals and record what nobody can eat, in a single pass.
- Schedules and group-restricted events, visible only to the circles you choose
- Dietary requirements kept in a separate store with tighter access
- A caterer’s spreadsheet exported in one press, one row per person
Keep on top of everything that’s coming up.
Milestones written for a wedding in the UK — giving notice at the register office, the registrar, insurance — laid out from a year before the day to the week of it. If your date moves, every linked deadline moves with it.
- Assign any milestone to either partner or to your planner
- Notes on any milestone, with every linked deadline moved when your date does
- Deleting puts a milestone in a bin you can empty, rather than destroying it
Finding a seat for everyone just got easier.
Draw the room as it really is — its outline, the doors, the dance floor, the pillar in the wrong place. Set the rules that matter: these two together, these two never. Then let it arrange the tables around them, and move whatever you disagree with.
- Round or rectangular tables at real scale, with their own seat counts
- It tells you what it could not satisfy, and why, rather than quietly dropping a rule
- A clean printed plan for your venue coordinator
Know where your wedding budget is going.
A supplier is not a contact. It is “£1,200 quoted, £300 paid, £900 due six weeks before” — so the money is the top of the screen, and the phone number lives inside the row.
- Deposits, scheduled balances and instalments against a budget for the whole wedding
- Contracts and quotes stored on the supplier they belong to
- Paying in euros? Converted at the rate on the day you actually paid, not today’s
A genuine two-way mailbox at your own wedding address
No more digging through personal accounts or forwarding supplier quotes. Both partners and your planner read the same post, reply from the same address, and file it when it is dealt with. A guest with a question can ask it from your site, and it lands here.
Invitations and monograms that match your website
Pick one visual language and it carries: the monogram, the website, the save the date and the invitation, with your photograph anchored where each one crops it. Print sheets compile at the real card size, each with its own household’s QR code on the back.
We’ve thought about the little things, too.
The rest of the wedding kit, under one login.
Schedules & questions
Lay out the order of the day, and answer the twenty questions you would otherwise answer by text. Guests can ask the twenty-first from the site.
Protected dietary data
Allergies are health data under UK law and some diets reveal religion, so they sit in their own store with tighter access than the rest of the record.
Find your invitation
A guest who has mislaid their link presses RSVP, gives their name, and it is emailed back to them. No account, no password reset, nothing to ask us.
Group-restricted events
A rehearsal dinner shows only to the people asked to it — and to nobody the site cannot identify.
Private until you publish
Build the whole thing with your planner first. Before you publish, a stranger with your address sees nothing at all, not even your names.
Live preview, both screens
Every change previewed at phone and desktop size as you make it, because most of your guests will read this on a train.
And afterwards, the photographs.
Everything above happens before the day. The day itself gets photographed by everybody there as well as by your photographer, and almost none of those pictures are ever seen again — they sit on phones, in a group chat that scrolled past.
Newlyweds Gallery is the other half of what we make: a private gallery at its own address, where your photographer’s set and your guests’ photographs end up in the same place. Set it up before the wedding and its QR code goes on your stationery, so guests upload from the moment they arrive.
- The same colours your website and stationery already use
- Guests upload by scanning — no app, no account
- Made by the same two of us, under one company
A few things you might be wondering.
- Is NearlyWeds really free?
- Yes. The whole thing, for the whole of your planning — website, guest list, RSVPs, invitations, seating, budget and your planner's login. There is no card to enter and nothing held back behind a paid tier.
- How do you make money, then?
- It costs us very little to run and we would rather have the couples. We do not sell your guest list to anybody, there is no card to enter, and nothing is held back behind a paid tier.
- Do my guests need to make an account?
- No. They open a link or scan the QR code on their invitation and they are in — no password, no app, nothing to download.
- Can I change the design after I have sent my invitations?
- Yes. Your address stays the same whichever design you are wearing, so the link and the QR code you have already printed keep working.
- Can our wedding planner use it?
- Yes, and it is one of the reasons we built it. A planner gets their own login to your wedding, and one login can hold several weddings.
- What happens to the site after the wedding?
- It stays up. Nothing is deleted when the day passes, and you can take your guest list with you whenever you want it.
