What should you put on a wedding website for a non-traditional wedding?

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

Short answer

Put the practical details first, then explain your ceremony style, dress code, schedule and any unusual elements, so guests know what to expect and how to take part.

A non-traditional wedding website needs to balance clarity with personality. Start with the date, time and venue, and then explain what makes your wedding different. If you are having a handfasting, a humanist ceremony, a vow renewal, a themed party or a festival-style weekend, describe it in simple terms. Tell guests what to wear, especially if the dress code is unusual, for example colourful, casual, or themed. Include a detailed schedule so guests know when the ceremony starts, when food is served and when dancing begins. If you are having a secular ceremony, you can mention that there will be no religious content, so guests are not surprised. If you are having a religious ceremony that is not legally binding on its own, explain that you are also having a civil ceremony, and check GOV.UK for the current rules. For any interactive elements, like a shared toast, a group photo or a guest book alternative, give clear instructions. The goal is to make guests feel included and confident, even if the wedding looks different from what they have seen before. Your website can be playful, but keep the essential facts easy to find.
