Wedding Website FAQ Examples & Answers
A wedding website FAQ answers the questions guests would otherwise text you: plus-ones, children, dress code, arrival time, parking, gifts, photos and dietary needs. Answer each in one or two friendly sentences, and put the most sensitive ones (plus-ones and kids) near the top.
Guests, plus-ones and children
The most sensitive questions. Be kind, be clear and don't leave room for interpretation.
Can I bring a plus-one? We'd love to celebrate with everyone, but our venue has limited space. We can only accommodate guests named on your invitation. Thank you for understanding!
Are children welcome? We love your little ones, but our wedding is an adults-only celebration (except for children in the wedding party). We hope this gives you a night off to enjoy!
Are kids invited? Yes! Children are very welcome. Please include them in your RSVP so we can plan meals and a kids' table.
I'm not sure whether my partner is invited — who can I ask? The names on your invitation and RSVP are the guests we've reserved seats for. If you're unsure, message [Bride's name] or [Groom's name] directly — no awkwardness, promise.
Timing, dress code and venue
What time should I arrive? Please arrive by [time] — the ceremony will start promptly at [Time].
What is the dress code? [Formal / Cocktail / Garden party]. Think [suits and ties; long or midi dresses]. The ceremony is on grass, so we suggest block heels or flats.
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors? The ceremony is outdoors in the garden and the reception is indoors. We have a wet-weather plan, so the wedding goes ahead rain or shine.
Is there parking at the venue? Yes, free parking is available on site. Overnight parking is allowed if you'd rather leave the car.
Will there be transport from the hotel? Yes — a shuttle runs from [Hotel] at [time] and returns at [time] and midnight.
Is the venue accessible? Yes. [Venue] is step-free throughout and has accessible toilets. Let us know if you need anything else to be comfortable.
Food, drinks and dietary needs
Will dinner be served? Yes, a full [plated dinner / buffet] will be served after cocktail hour.
I have a dietary requirement — what should I do? Please note any allergies or dietary requirements on your RSVP and we'll make sure the caterers look after you.
Will there be an open bar? Yes, drinks are on us! [Or: Beer, wine and soft drinks are included; cocktails are available at the bar.]
Gifts and registry
Keep this gracious — guests are grateful for guidance.
Where are you registered? Your presence is truly the best gift. If you'd like to give something, you'll find our registry [here].
Do you have a honeymoon fund? We do! Having lived together for a few years, we have most things we need. A contribution towards our honeymoon in [destination] would be wonderful — but it's never expected.
Can I bring a gift to the wedding? We'd prefer gifts are sent to our home or given through the registry, as it's hard to transport them after the reception.
Photos, phones and the day itself
Can I take photos during the ceremony? We're having an unplugged ceremony — please keep phones away so our photographer can capture the moment. You're welcome to take photos at the reception!
Is there a wedding hashtag? Yes! Share your photos with #[YourHashtag] so we can see the day from your point of view.
Can I post photos on social media? Please wait until after we've shared our first photo — we'd love to be the ones to share it first.
What time does the reception end? The party wraps up at midnight. Last shuttle leaves at 12:15 AM.
RSVP questions
When is the RSVP deadline? Please RSVP by [RSVP deadline]. We need final numbers for our caterer, so we won't be able to add guests after that date.
What if I can't make it? Please still RSVP so we know — we'll miss you, and we completely understand.
I RSVP'd but my plans changed. What should I do? Just update your RSVP on this site or message us before [RSVP deadline].
Etiquette tips
- Order FAQs by how often you get asked — plus-ones and kids first.
- Answer "no" questions with a reason and warmth; it prevents follow-up messages.
- Never ask for cash directly in an FAQ — offer a registry or fund and say gifts are optional.
- Update the FAQ whenever three different guests ask you the same question.
Frequently asked questions
What questions should be on a wedding website FAQ?
Plus-ones, children, arrival time, dress code, indoor/outdoor and weather, parking and transport, dietary needs, gifts, photos and the RSVP deadline.
How do I say no plus-ones politely on a wedding website?
Give a reason and thank guests: "Our venue has limited space, so we can only accommodate guests named on your invitation. Thank you for understanding!"
Should I mention gifts on my wedding website?
Yes — the FAQ or registry page is the right place, because etiquette discourages printing registry details on the invitation itself. Keep it optional and gracious.
How many FAQs should a wedding website have?
Usually 10–20. Fewer than that and guests will still text you; more and the important answers get buried.
