Below are 37 welcome messages organized by tone, each 25 to 70 words, written for fictional couples you can swap for yourselves. Emma and James in Austin lead; the rest cover formal, funny, destination, intimate, second marriage, blended family and more. Every design in the [free wedding website builder](/wedding-website) opens with a welcome block under the names and date, and the AI drafts one from your event details. Paste any message below over it. The [our story examples](/blog/wedding-website-our-story-examples) and [FAQ examples](/blog/wedding-website-faq-examples) cover what comes after. ## Classic welcome messages ### 1\. Emma and James, Austin > Welcome! We are so glad you are here. We are getting married on Saturday, October 17, at the Driskill in Austin, and we would love you with us. Everything you need - the schedule, where to stay, what to wear - is on this site. Please RSVP by September 15. ### 2\. Traditional and tidy > Thank you for visiting our wedding website. Here you will find the details of our wedding day, travel information and our registry. We hope you can join us as we celebrate, and we ask that you RSVP by the date below. ### 3\. Direct > We are getting married, and we want you there. Take a look around for the schedule, directions and the answers to the questions you were about to text us. Then tap RSVP so we can save you a seat. ### 4\. Everything in one place > Welcome to our wedding website. We put everything here so you can plan the weekend without guessing: times, addresses, the dress code and where to stay. The RSVP button is at the bottom of every page. ## Warm welcome messages ### 5\. You matter to us > You are reading this because you matter to us. Whether we have known you our whole lives or just a few years, we cannot imagine this day without you. The details are below, and the RSVP is one tap away. ### 6\. The room we want > We have been planning this for a while, but the part we are most excited about is the room: it will be full of the people we love most. Thank you for being one of them. Please let us know by May 1 if you can come. ### 7\. One place for everything > Hi, and welcome. We built this little site so you have one place for everything - and so we could say, in writing, how much it means that you will be there. Scroll for the schedule and the RSVP. ### 8\. Why we want a party > Some of you drove us to the airport at 5 a.m. Some of you held us up through hard years. All of you are why we want a party, not just a ceremony. Here is how to get there, where to stay and how to tell us you are coming. ## Short welcome messages ### 9\. Four lines > Welcome. Details below. RSVP by June 1. We cannot wait. ### 10\. Date, place, deadline > We are getting married on August 16 in Tampa. Everything you need is on this page. Please RSVP by July 15. ### 11\. See you in October > Thanks for being here.

Tap RSVP so we can tell the restaurant. ## Funny welcome messages ### 13\. Maya and Chris, Brooklyn > You found the website. That already puts you ahead of two of our groomsmen. Everything you need is here; everything you do not need is also here, because Maya got carried away. RSVP by June 1 or Chris will call you. ### 14\. Midnight tacos > Welcome to the only wedding website with a section on where to get tacos at midnight. Also included: a schedule, a dress code and an RSVP button that we check far too often. ### 15\.

The travel page has the resort link, the group rate and the transfer details. Please book by December 1 and RSVP by then too. ### 21\. Amelia and Noah, Lisbon > We are so grateful you are considering the trip. Lisbon is where we met, and we cannot think of a better place to say our vows. Flights, hotels, what to pack and what to do on the free evenings are all here. RSVP by February 1 so we can plan the dinners. ### 22\. Thank you for the trip > Thank you for coming all this way. We know a destination wedding asks a lot, so we have tried to make the rest easy: the schedule tells you which meals are hosted, the travel page covers everything from the airport to the villa. See you on the water. More in the [destination wedding website guide](/blog/destination-wedding-website-guide). ## Small and intimate welcome messages ### 23\. Layla and Theo, dinner for 25 > We are keeping this one small - just the people who have been there for all of it. That includes you. Dinner is at our favorite restaurant on March 8, and we would love to know by February 15 if you can be there. ### 24\. Thirty chairs > A backyard, a long table, thirty chairs and you. That is the whole plan. The details are below; the RSVP takes ten seconds. ### 25\. Aria and Jonah, Phoenix > We eloped in March with our parents. Now we want to celebrate with everyone else. No ceremony, just a party on May 10 - come hungry, come ready to dance, and let us know by April 15. ## Second marriage welcome messages ### 26\. Diane and Robert, Scottsdale > Welcome. Neither of us expected to be doing this again, and both of us are very glad we are. We would love you with us on November 2 in Scottsdale. Details are below; please RSVP by October 1. ### 27\.

On August 16 we become one family, officially, and we want you there to see it. Schedule, hotel and RSVP are below. Please answer by July 15. ### 29\.

Priya and Daniel, Chicago > Together with our parents, Priya and Daniel welcome you. Our two days of celebration bring together two families and two traditions, and we have written a short guide to each ceremony so everyone feels at home. RSVP by April 20. ## Bilingual-friendly welcome messages ### 32\. Camila and Ethan, Miami > Welcome, bienvenidos. Half of our family reads this in English and half in Spanish, so this site has both - use the switch at the top. We are getting married in Miami on June 7. RSVP by May 10, in whichever language you like. ### 33\. Both sides of the ocean > Thank you for being here, from both sides of the ocean. Every page on this site is available in English and French; the RSVP buttons work the same in both. We cannot wait to see you on September 20. ## Welcome messages with a save-the-date note ### 34\. Emma and James, save the date > Save the date: October 17, 2026, Austin. We are getting married! The formal invitation and the full schedule will follow in the summer, but book the hotel now - the room block is open and the link is on the travel page. ### 35\. You are early > You are early, and we love that. This site will fill in over the next few months. For now: the date is March 14, the place is Tulum, and the travel page is live so you can plan. The RSVP opens in November. ## Welcome messages with the RSVP ask up front ### 36\. RSVP first, then scroll > Welcome! Before anything else: please tap RSVP below and let us know if you can come by September 15. Then take your time with the rest - the schedule, the hotel and where to park are all here. ### 37\. One favor > We have one favor to ask before you scroll: RSVP by September 15. It takes thirty seconds and it is the one thing our caterer needs from us. Thank you - now, the fun part. ## The welcome message formula Every message above follows the same four beats, and you can write your own in five minutes by filling them in: - Greeting and gladness: “Welcome - we are so glad you are here.” - The fact: who, when, where, in one sentence. - The pointer: what is on the site (schedule, travel, FAQ). - The ask: RSVP, with the date. Put the date in numbers so it is scannable. Keep it under 70 words. The welcome is not the place for the story - that has its own section - or for the logistics, which live on the schedule and travel pages. If guests read only the welcome and tap the [RSVP button](/online-rsvp), the message has done its job. ## What goes right after the welcome - The RSVP button, with the deadline next to it. On a one-page site, it sits right under the welcome. - The schedule in one glance: ceremony time, reception time, dress code. Examples in the [schedule examples](/blog/wedding-website-schedule-examples). - Travel and stay, with the room-block cutoff. - The FAQ, then the story, then the registry. In that order; it matches what guests look for. All couples, venues and dates above are fictional. The messages are templates: keep the beat you like, change every noun. If the welcome message is the first thing guests read, the invitation is what brings them to it. The guide to [sharing your wedding website](/blog/how-to-share-your-wedding-website) covers sending the link by WhatsApp or text with RSVP buttons, which is priced per invitation on the [pricing page](/pricing); the site itself is free in all six [designs](/wedding-website/templates).
