Customising your URL

Customising Your Wedding Website URL

At Hey Wedding Day, each wedding website you create will have its own personalised web address (URL) to share with your guests. You can customise the last part of your URL to better match your wedding theme, names, or anything meaningful to you.

Default Structure

All wedding websites are hosted under:

https://www.heyweddingday.com/your-custom-name

For example:

https://www.heyweddingday.com/emily-and-james

How to Customise Your URL

When setting up your wedding website, you will be asked to choose a website name This becomes the final part of your URL.

Keep it simple and easy to remember.
Spaces are not allowed (use hyphens or simply combine words).
Only use letters, numbers, and hyphens.
Your Website Name must be unique — if someone else has already claimed it, you’ll need to pick another.

Where to Customise Your URL

You can customise your wedding website's URL directly from your Settings page.

Go to Settings.
Under the Website section, find Your URL.
Click the Customise button next to your current URL.
Enter your new Website Name and save.

Important:

Your Website Name must be unique (if it's already taken, you'll need to try a different one).
After changing your Website Name, your old link will no longer work — be sure to update your guests if you've already shared it!

Can I Use My Own Domain?

Currently, Hey Wedding Day does not support connecting custom domains (e.g., yourwedding.com). All websites must use the standard format:

https://www.heyweddingday.com/your-custom-name

This helps us ensure reliability, security, and speed for every wedding website.

Editing Your URL Later

You can update your Website Name later if needed. However, please note:

Your previous URL will no longer work.
You'll need to inform your guests if you change it after invitations have been sent.
