I wasn't going to make one at first, because: a) they often seem redundant, stating much of the same information as the invitation, b) the templates available are often very cheesy/poorly constructed, and c) I don't really have much time to do the things I need to do for the wedding.
However, I changed my mind because I realized that: a) I'll have less to put in the invitation this way (which means easier invitation construction), and b) I want people to be able to see pictures of the wedding events (engagement, bachelor/bachelorette parties, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, photo booth) which I can easily post on the website.
So, I searched the good ol' web for a bit and came across Wedding Wire, a most fabulous wedding site. Not only can you create wedding web pages, you can create to-do lists, a budget, guest lists, even seating plans. Plus, the wedding website templates are gorgeous and fairly easy to manipulate.

I've blurred out our names at the top to maintain some level of anonymity.
Notice how absolutely gorgeous the template is. The black and white damask-like theme matches well with the look of our wedding. Plus, the wedding website builder provides great apps, such as an RSVP form and a reception music request form. You can even add a carbon calculator if you're a green bride that hopes to offset the environmental cost of the big day. LOVE IT!
Do you think wedding websites are a valuable tool? Would you read the website of a wedding you planned to attend?
