DENVER, March 26, 2003 - Brides and grooms wishing to streamline the coordination of guests, reservations, accommodations, special events and other wedding-related activities now have a comprehensive and affordable resource to tap as part of their planning efforts at www.wedstudio.com.
"Unlike the cookie-cutter approach taken by typical wedding Web sites, WedStudio puts couples in control of a personalized, professionally designed, thirty-page Web site," said Krista Meikle, co-founder of WedStudio.
With WedStudio, couples can create a custom Web site to share special moments and traditions, while managing wedding day communications in three easy steps.
First, couples select a site layout and URL. Next, they add content and pictures to the site all created within the WedStudio Design Studio. Finally, they select the pages they want live and begin sharing their custom-wedding Web site with friends and family. Updates to the site can be made in real-time throughout engagement, and even after the honeymoon.
WedStudio provides an advertising-free environment, more content options, and more professional site layouts than the typical wedding Web sites. The service currently allows brides and grooms to:
- Inform: Give guests the information they need to ensure a stress-free, pleasant visit.
- Share: Post photographs and share special moments and stories with loved ones.
- RSVP: Save time and money by capturing RSVPs and managing guest lists online.
- Connect: Provide local city information for out-of-town guests.
- Register: Link to online retailers and provide guests easy access to gift registries.
Sharon Naylor, a wedding-planning expert and author of 16 wedding-related books who has offered wedding advice in Bride's magazine and Bridal Guide magazine, believes more brides and grooms want to create a custom wedding Web site to showcase their special day.
"WedStudio provides couples with relevant content and the ability to control their site's own bells and whistles," Naylor said. "It is a cost-effective and original outlet for couples to share wedding plans with friends and family."
Subscription packages range from $89.99 for a six-month site to $179.99 for an 18-month site. No matter what package is purchased, all site features are included. Couples can choose from a variety of unique, professional designs and colors and select nearly 30 pages for viewing. The pages include About Us, Photo Album, RSVP, Registry, Honeymoon, Wedding Details, Travel Information, and many more.
"When we got engaged, my husband and I were frustrated by the lack of control and options offered by typical wedding Web sites," said Meikle. "We spent hundreds of dollars developing and updating a custom Web site for our wedding. This experience prompted us to develop WedStudio as a resource for couples like us who want a professional looking wedding Web site without the expense and frustration of developing a custom site from scratch."
For those who aren't sure a wedding Web site is right for them, the company offers a free, 7-day trial and has a 30-day money back guarantee. No questions asked.
