What is a 12 strong password?

Answered by the UK Wedding Websites editorial team · Updated 2026-10-12 · For guests

Short answer

A 12 strong password is a password that is at least 12 characters long and mixes upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. The length matters more than complexity, so aim for a long phrase or a random string that is hard to guess.

A strong password of 12 characters should be unique to your wedding website and not used anywhere else. The idea is to make it hard for someone to guess or crack, even if they know you well. Avoid obvious choices like your names, your wedding date, or the word "wedding".

A good way to create a strong password is to use a passphrase. Take a sentence you can remember, like "My cat likes to watch the rain", then turn it into a password. For example, "McL2wtr!" is short, but you can make it longer: "MyC@tLikes2WatchTheRain!" That is over 12 characters and mixes cases, numbers and symbols.

Another method is to use a random combination of words, numbers and symbols, such as "Blue!Tiger42&Rain". The key is that it is long and not based on personal details that guests could guess.

If you struggle to remember a strong password, write it down somewhere safe, like a notebook kept at home, rather than on your phone notes. You can also use a password manager, but if you do, choose one you trust and set a strong master password.

Remember, the password protects your guests' privacy, so treat it as seriously as you would your own email password.
