Because your big day deserves better than clunky templates, glitchy RSVP forms, and layouts that look like a middle school PowerPoint. You’re planning a celebration that’s totally you, and that should include your website, too.
You’re so over:
Templates feeling like an afterthought instead of an extension of your design
Endless guest texts asking, “What’s the dress code again?”
Hidden fees, shady data tracking, and designs giving 2013 Pinterest
Bring a little quiet luxury to your guest experience with a chic, editorial wedding website template featuring serious style, flexible design, and an unforgettable user experience. Step away from the big-box builders. Step into something better.

Let’s be honest: you’re already spending real money on stationery, florals, attire — the parts that look good in photos.
But your wedding website? It’s the one piece every single guest actually interacts with.
While invitations get tucked into drawers and centerpieces disappear at midnight, your website is the one thing people revisit again and again - to RSVP, to check the registry, to confirm the shuttle schedule for the fifth time.
Most couples treat it like an afterthought and it shows.
Investing in a beautifully designed, expertly built wedding website genuinely saves you time, sanity, and social capital. It cuts down on logistics. It reduces guest confusion. It keeps your aesthetics consistent. And it delivers a first impression that makes people exclaim, “Ohhh, this wedding is going to be nice.”
Compare the alternatives
Sure, you can use a free builder, but you’ll pay for it in hours wasted, design compromises, and a site that feels like it’s watching you (because it is). You can hire a designer and developer separately, but you’ll either end up with something generic or overspend while project-managing two strangers who may not understand the nuance of a wedding.
Here’s the truth
You’re not just buying a website. You’re embracing a seamless guest experience, a dazzling first impression, and peace of mind during an already overwhelming season of planning.
Unlike flora, musicians, decor, your website actually does something. It functions. It coordinates. It communicates. It carries your event from save-the-date to “I do.”
A gorgeous wedding website not only looks good. It pays for itself in time saved, headaches avoided, and the kind of guest experience people remember.
This isn’t an indulgence. It’s the infrastructure for a flawless wedding.

“But, will this actually work for me?”I hear you, which is why we’ve got our
Polished to Perfection Promise
Your template comes professionally designed, technically sound, and built to deliver a clean, cohesive, editorial look — as long as you follow the guided setup. If something doesn’t display correctly due to a technical issue, we’ll fix it — full stop. If an issue comes from your content, images, or settings, we’ll point you toward the solution so you stay on track.
Our goal: your site looks as polished as our demo without guesswork, stress, or spirals.
I’m Maud - consider me your wedding website mentor. I created these templates after noticing a massive gap in the wedding website market.
Friends planning their weddings kept telling me the same thing: they couldn’t find a wedding website that felt well-designed. So I researched every option available and found… nothing. Like, truly nothing. Not one met the standard.
So I created custom sites for them. Sites matching their color palettes and themes. Sites with all the info their guests could possibly need. Sites without spammy affiliate links and sketchy tracking.
I realized other couples were searching for something better, too. And that’s how Black Tie Optional was born.
If you’re here, you’ve probably searched everywhere and found nothing that meets your standards. Lucky for you, that ends now.
Ready for a wedding website that finally lives up to your vision? Let’s go!
You know you’ve found your template soulmate if…
- You’ve already got a color palette, a stationery suite, and an award-worthy Pinterest board. You want a website to feel like part of the art direction, not an afterthought slapped onto a free builder. You’re craving something polished, high-end, and easy to customize (no tech degree required).
- You want luxury results without a massive time commitment, because you’re juggling vendors, fittings, and real lives. You appreciate design but also appreciate not spending hours troubleshooting layout issues. You want a template delivering elegance instantly with frustration-free instructions.
- Your wedding vibe is intentional, curated, and hospitality-driven, and you want your guests to feel it from the first click. Your website should set the tone, answer questions, and build excitement before anyone’s handed a welcome basket. You want a site elevating your guest experience, not sabotaging it.
- You know the big platforms all look the same and you refuse to be a wedding wallflower. You’re ready for something elegant, original, and more editorial than the standard drag-and-drop template. You want a template helping you stand out without starting from scratch.
You popped the question, I’ve got the answers
Curiosities, Queries, & Champagne Problems
Q: Is a wedding website really necessary?
A: Nope, it’s not. But then again, nothing but the marriage certificate is really necessary. So have a little fun and give your guests something to ooh and aww over long before your big day arrives. Saves you time, cuts down on endless questions, and keeps all the deets in one place. Give your guests a luxury experience from day one.
1. We just don’t think we can pay that right now. Is there a payment plan?
A. Our templates are a one-time digital product, so payment plans aren’t available. Think of this as an investment piece in your wedding planning wardrobe.
2. What are the tech requirements? What if we’re not tech-savvy?
A. The whole enchilada is made on Squarespace - the design, domain, and service are all run through the platform. If you use our DWY service, we handle this for you. If you pick a DIY template, worry not, you’ll receive plenty of tutorials and help desk access if you ever need it.
3. What kind of support is available after the site is live?
A. We offer the “Happily Ever After Warranty” for our DWY service. This is excellent coverage for continued maintenance and live monitoring for your big day. If you use a DIY template and develop tech questions, we’re always available via email.
4. Is the price listed all-inclusive?
A. Yes, the prices listed include everything mentioned in the product breakdown [anchor link]. The exception being the optional “Happily Ever After Warranty” for DWY sites.
5. What material is required from us?
A. You’ll need your key dates, guest info, registry details, photos of the bride- and groom-to-be, and accommodation deets. Worry not, we’ll prompt you when the time is right.
6. How customizable is “custom”?
A. Down to the pixel. Colors, layout, typography, animations, flow, pages, guest experience. All of it is tailored to your personal style. DWY service excludes any customizations beyond colors, fonts, and adding images. DIY buyers are welcome to customize beyond the existing template, but we cannot provide tech support for anything altered.
7. How long until our site is ready?
A. For DIY templates, you can easily set up your site in a few days. That’s why we include the Launch in a Weekend Guide bonus! For DWY templates, our process typically takes 2-3 weeks to launch. Priority production upgrades are available in select circumstances.
8. If we purchase a DWY template, can we make changes after the site launches?
A. You’ll be handed the keys to the digital kingdom after your site goes live. Additionally, we offer a “Happily Ever After Warranty”, which includes our services for making updates to any copy or links after the launch date.
9. How are RSVPs handled?
A. You have two options: a Google Sheet or each RSVP submitted can be sent directly to someone’s inbox.
10. How private is our data?
A. Extremely. We never share or sell your info, ever. Our products are free from trackers and affiliates. Each website comes password-protected as a default and SEO is turned off so strangers can’t find your details with a quick search. Privacy and security are two of our greatest concerns.
11. Will this website work on phones?
A. Absolutely. Most guests view wedding websites on mobile first, so your design is optimized for the most popular screen formats from the start.
12. Can you add special features?
A. This sounds like a bespoke upgrade, but we do love a challenge and getting our hands dirty in the creative process. Share with the class, we want to know your big ideas!
Q: We’re still not sure this is for us…
A: No sweat, boo. Submit any questions not answered here. [link contact page]
