Going digital: Our wedding website

Wedding websites are a fantastic way to inform guests of wedding plans, collect RSVPs, share our registry, and count down together to the Big Day. When it came to creating our digital space, one word was key: free. Several Google searches and trial runs later, I'd settled on the lesser known withjoy.com, in part because they weren't trying to sell me anything (ahem- theknot) but mostly because of the photos. Rather than slipping our images into pre-designed blog-like templates, at withjoy, we got to put our photos front and center, and build up all the text around them. In short, it was pretty.

There were, of course, questions of how to tell our story. And how to translate it all. Not to mention that awkward moment when a friendly withjoy employee offered to feature our proposal story, only to learn that we did not, in fact, have one. But at the end of the day, I'm rather proud with what we've put together. Here is our wedding website: withjoy.com/nker
