Do you need a password for your wedding website?

You do not have to put a password on your wedding website, but many UK couples choose to for privacy. A public site can be seen by anyone, which is fine if you are happy to share your wedding details widely. However, if you are having a small or private wedding, or if you have specific guests you do not want to see certain details, a password adds a layer of control.

A password also protects your RSVP page, so only invited guests can reply. This avoids random people clicking your link and adding themselves. Some builders let you set a single password for everyone, while others allow individual codes for each guest. Individual codes are more secure and let you track who has visited, but they can be harder for older guests to manage.

If you use a password, make it easy to remember, like a short word or number, and share it clearly on your save the date or invitation. You can also put it in the email or text you send with the website link. Avoid using obvious choices like your names or the wedding date. And remember, if you share the password on social media, it is no longer private. For most weddings, a simple shared password is enough.
