How do you keep guest details safe on a wedding website?

Keeping guest details safe on your wedding website is mostly about common sense. First, set a password and only share it with invited guests. Do not post the website link on social media or in public groups. If you use a wedding website builder, check its privacy settings and turn off any public search options.

When you collect RSVPs, only ask for what you genuinely need: names, dietary needs, and maybe song requests. Do not ask for passport numbers, national insurance numbers, or bank details. If you need those for travel or accommodation, collect them separately and securely, not on the website.

Make sure your website uses a secure connection, which you can usually see as a padlock in the browser address bar. Most reputable website builders do this automatically. Also, be careful with any guest list you upload. If the website builder offers a guest dashboard, use it to manage who can see what. For example, you can set it so guests only see their own RSVP details, not everyone else's.

Finally, after the wedding, consider removing the website or changing the password so it is no longer accessible. That keeps old guest details from lingering online.
