How do you make a wedding website for a couple with divorced parents?

Divorced parents are very common, and a wedding website can handle them gracefully. The key is to avoid assumptions and to ask each parent how they would like to be named. Some prefer their full name with a title, others just their first name, and some want no mention at all. Respect that.

On the website, list parents separately, never as a joint couple. For example, you might have a section for "Our families" with each parent's name and their partner if they have one. If there is any tension, keep the tone warm but neutral, and avoid phrases like "the happy couple's parents" that imply a single unit.

For the ceremony and reception seating, the website can include a note about family arrangements, but keep it practical. If parents are walking down the aisle, decide the order together and explain it clearly on the website so no one is surprised. You can also add a private note for family members only, using separate RSVP links, if you need to share sensitive details.

If you are worried about awkwardness, you can leave parent names off the website entirely and just say "with love from our families". That is a simple, respectful option. The website should make everyone feel included, not put anyone in an uncomfortable spot.
