Most wedding website builders give you a long address. Here's how to get it onto your invitations so every guest can find it, whether they type it or scan it.
Keep the address short
Website builders usually give you something like withjoy.com/sam-and-alex-2027 or a longer address with numbers in it. Guests type what they see, and every extra character is a chance for a typo that lands them on an error page. A short link such as thisisourwedding.co.uk/samandalex is easier to read, type and say out loud.
Choose a name guests can type
- Use your first names. Guests already know them, so they'll remember the link and spell it right.
- Write it in lower case, and leave off https:// and www. Browsers add them for you.
- Avoid look-alike characters such as a lower-case l next to a 1 or a capital I, or the letter O next to a zero.
- Think twice about hyphens. They help readability on paper, but they're awkward to say over the phone.
Where to print it
- Save-the-dates: the earliest place to point guests to travel and accommodation details.
- The invitation or a details card: a separate insert keeps the invitation itself clean, with room for the link, a QR code and a line such as "RSVP and travel details".
- On the day: the order of service, table plan or a welcome sign, for the photo gallery or the day's timings.
Add a QR code, but keep the typed link
A QR code saves guests typing on a phone. Print the typed link next to it as well, for guests who don't scan codes or are reading on paper away from their phone. Our guide to QR codes on invitations covers size, contrast and file formats.
Test it on a printed proof
Before you approve the print run, type the link from the proof into a phone, exactly as a guest would, and scan the QR code from the paper rather than from a screen. Ask someone who hasn't seen it before to try too.
Plan for changes
Plans change after invitations are printed: you might switch website builder, or want the link to go to the photos after the day. If the printed link is one you control, you change where it goes, not the cards. With thisisourwedding you can change the destination as often as you like, from £12.
