The best wedding website name is your two first names joined by “and”: emma-and-james. It is short, it is obvious, and a guest who hears it once can type it into a phone a month later. Everything else on this list - last names, dates, venues, puns, initials - is a fallback for when the simple version is taken or when you want the name to carry a joke. Below are 100 ideas grouped by type, the five rules that separate a good name from one guests mistype, and an honest answer on whether you need a custom domain at all.

On Eventi the name is the part after ueventi.com/sites/ and you choose it when you publish from the [free wedding website builder](/wedding-website). If the one you want is taken, the next idea on the list is usually just as good, and the [RSVP](/online-rsvp) works the same whichever name you pick. The examples use Emma and James, married in Austin in June 2027.

## The five rules for a wedding website name

-   Short enough to say in one breath. Two names and a joiner is the ceiling; three words is the practical limit.
-   Letters and hyphens only. No apostrophes, no ampersands, no accents; they break in a text message.
-   Easy to spell from hearing it. If your name has two common spellings, use the other person’s or use initials.
-   Nothing that could change. Do not put a date in the name unless the date is locked, and avoid the venue if you might move.
-   Check it is free before you print it anywhere. The builder tells you instantly; a save-the-date does not.

## First-name wedding website names

-   emma-and-james
-   emmaandjames
-   james-and-emma
-   emma-james
-   emma-loves-james
-   emma-marries-james
-   emma-weds-james
-   emma-plus-james
-   emma-and-james-wedding
-   emmajameswedding
-   emma-and-james-2027
-   emma-and-james-say-i-do
-   emma-and-james-tie-the-knot
-   emma-and-james-get-married
-   em-and-jay

The first three cover most couples. Nicknames work if everyone uses them; if only your friends call you Em, your aunt will type Emma and land nowhere.

## Last-name and hashtag-style names

-   the-carters
-   meet-the-carters
-   becoming-carters
-   carter-wedding
-   the-carter-wedding
-   soon-to-be-carters
-   team-carter
-   carter-party-of-two
-   the-future-carters
-   carters-2027
-   rivera-carter
-   rivera-meets-carter
-   rivera-and-carter
-   carter-rivera-wedding
-   house-of-carter

If you already have a wedding hashtag, the same words usually make a good site name. The [wedding hashtag generator](/wedding-hashtag-generator) produces both at once from your names. Keep the hashtag and the site name the same so guests only learn one thing.

## Date-based names

-   june-13-2027
-   61327
-   emma-james-061327
-   june-in-austin
-   summer-2027-wedding
-   the-13th-of-june
-   save-june-13
-   our-june-wedding
-   midsummer-carters
-   ej-june-2027

Only use a date once the venue contract is signed. A changed date means a changed name, which means every save-the-date is wrong. Keep the date in the site’s title instead, where it is easy to edit.

## City and venue names

-   emma-and-james-in-austin
-   austin-wedding-2027
-   carters-in-austin
-   meet-us-in-austin
-   hill-country-wedding
-   emma-james-hill-country
-   barton-creek-i-do
-   wedding-on-the-ranch
-   lakeside-with-the-carters
-   austin-bound

City names are good for destination weddings, where the city is the headline. For a local wedding they add length without adding meaning. The [destination wedding website guide](/blog/destination-wedding-website-guide) has more on naming and travel pages for weddings away from home.

## Puns and playful names

-   carter-ever-after
-   happily-ever-carter
-   to-have-and-to-carter
-   emma-gets-a-james
-   james-finally-asked
-   she-said-yes-in-austin
-   two-less-fish
-   last-first-date
-   best-day-ever-2027
-   put-a-ring-on-it-emma
-   its-a-carter-thing
-   the-big-day-emma-james
-   no-more-swiping
-   here-comes-the-carters
-   plus-one-forever

A pun that works on your last name is a gift; a pun that needs explaining is a liability. Say it to one parent. If they ask you to repeat it, use a plain name and save the joke for the [welcome message](/blog/wedding-website-welcome-message-examples).

## Initial-based names

-   e-and-j
-   eandj2027
-   ej-wedding
-   e-loves-j
-   ejc-wedding
-   e-plus-j
-   er-and-jc
-   the-ej-wedding
-   ej-say-i-do
-   ej-tie-the-knot

Initials are the right answer when one of you has a name that is long or spelled several ways. They are also the hardest to remember, so put the full names in the site title and on the invitation.

## “The X wedding” and formal names

-   the-wedding-of-emma-and-james
-   the-rivera-carter-wedding
-   wedding-of-the-year-2027
-   emma-james-celebration
-   the-carter-celebration
-   emma-and-james-nuptials
-   our-wedding-day
-   the-wedding-weekend
-   carter-wedding-weekend
-   a-carter-affair

## Bilingual-friendly names

-   emma-y-james
-   emma-et-james
-   emma-e-james
-   emma-und-james
-   boda-emma-james
-   mariage-emma-james
-   emma-james-boda-2027
-   nuestra-boda-emma-james

If half the guest list reads another language, a joiner in that language is a small, kind signal. Keep the rest of the name in plain letters. Eventi can publish the site in more than one language, so the one name can open the version each guest needs.

## Names for a second marriage or a vow renewal

-   diane-and-robert
-   diane-and-robert-finally
-   better-late-diane-robert
-   second-time-around
-   linda-and-george-30-years
-   still-saying-yes
-   the-whole-family-wedding

## Short and typeable names

-   emmajames
-   ejwed
-   carters
-   ourday
-   emj27
-   theknotting
-   yesemma
-   jandeday
-   carterwed
-   weddingej

These are for the printed card, the QR code label and the grandparent who will type it by hand. They are also the first to be taken, so have a second choice ready.

## Do you need a custom domain?

Probably not. A custom domain like emmaandjames.com looks nice on a printed save-the-date, and that is the whole case for it. Most guests arrive by tapping a link in a message, which means they never see the address. If you send the invitation as a WhatsApp or SMS with reply buttons, the link is one tap away and the RSVP is in the message itself; see [how to share your wedding website](/blog/how-to-share-your-wedding-website).

If you do want one, Eventi connects a domain you own for a one-time $29 with no renewal through us; the hosted name at ueventi.com/sites/ stays free. Other platforms charge yearly for the domain, which the [wedding website cost comparison](/blog/how-much-does-a-wedding-website-cost) lays out side by side, and the [pricing page](/pricing) has the current add-on list.

## What goes in the name, and what goes in the title

The name is the address; the title is the heading on the page. Keep the address short and put everything else in the title, where it costs nothing and can change. A site named emma-and-james with the title “Emma & James, June 13, 2027, Austin” gives guests the full picture the moment the page opens, and if the date moves the address stays the same. The same split applies to the invitation: print the short address, say the rest in words. The [what to put on your wedding website](/blog/what-to-put-on-your-wedding-website) checklist covers the title and the welcome line in more detail.

One more reason to keep the address short: it will be read aloud. A grandparent will call and ask for it, a friend will repeat it to a plus-one, and someone will type it from a photo of the save-the-date. Each extra word is another chance to mistype. If two names are long, initials and the year is a perfectly good compromise, as long as the full names are in the title.

## Picking a name: a two-minute test

-   Say it out loud to someone who has not seen it written. Can they type it?
-   Type it on a phone keyboard. Any symbol you had to hunt for is a problem.
-   Imagine it on the save-the-date next to a QR code. Does it fit on one line?
-   Check it is free in the builder. Then check your second choice, because you will want it for the password or the hashtag.

The name is public, so keep it to names and words you are happy for anyone to see. The private details - the venue address, the schedule - can sit behind a password; ideas are in [wedding website password ideas](/blog/wedding-website-password-ideas), and the privacy defaults are explained in the [free wedding website FAQ](/blog/free-wedding-website-faq).
