Key takeaways
- A good Q&A page answers the questions guests would otherwise text you in the final week.
- Cover five areas: RSVP and guests, the day, travel, gifts, and etiquette.
- Write answers in one or two warm sentences, with the specific detail guests need.
- Add cultural questions if your wedding includes traditions some guests haven't seen.
RSVP and guests
- When is the RSVP deadline? “Please RSVP by July 1 — even if you can’t make it — so we can finalise numbers.”
- Can I bring a plus-one? “We’ve included everyone invited on your invitation. If you have a plus-one, their name will appear when you RSVP.”
- Are children invited? (how to word it) “We love your little ones, but our celebration will be adults only, apart from our wedding party.”
- Which events am I invited to? “Your personal schedule in the app shows every event you’re invited to.”
- I can’t find my invitation when I RSVP. “Search the name exactly as it appears on your invitation, or message us and we’ll help.”
The day itself
- What time should I arrive? “Please arrive 30 minutes before the ceremony, which begins promptly at 3:30 PM.”
- What is the dress code? “Cocktail attire. The ceremony is outdoors on grass, so block heels are a good idea.”
- Will the ceremony be indoors or outdoors?
- Is there a rain plan?
- Will dinner be served, and can you cater to dietary needs?
- Will there be an open bar?
- What time does the celebration end?
Travel and stay
- Where should I stay? “We’ve listed nearby hotels, with their distance from the venue and booking links, under Where to Stay.”
- Is there parking?
- Will there be a shuttle?
- Which airport should I fly into?
- Is the venue accessible?
Gifts
- Do you have a registry?
- Is there a card box at the wedding?
- What is a red envelope, and should I bring one? (for Chinese weddings) “A red envelope is a traditional gift at Chinese weddings — but your presence is truly gift enough.”
Etiquette and traditions
- Is it an unplugged ceremony? “We’d love you to be fully present during the ceremony — our photographer has it covered. Phones out at the reception!”
- Can I post photos on social media?
- How can I share my photos with you? “Upload them in the app — and use the Selfie Photo Finder to find every photo you’re in.”
- Are there cultural traditions we should know about? “Yes! Our morning tea ceremony is for family. You’re welcome to join us from 2:30 PM.”
- Who do I contact on the day? “Our coordinator, Mei, is your go-to — her number is in the app.”
How to write great answers
- Lead with the answer. Details second.
- Be specific. Times, places and names beat “soon” and “nearby”.
- Keep the tone warm. Your Q&A sounds like you.
- Update it as plans change — and keep it in one place.

Frequently asked questions
What should be on a wedding website FAQ page?
The RSVP deadline, plus-one and children policies, dress code, ceremony arrival time, parking and transport, accommodation, gift and registry details, photo and social media etiquette, and anything unusual about your venue or traditions.
How long should wedding FAQ answers be?
One or two sentences each. Lead with the answer, then add the one detail guests need — a time, a place or a link.
Should you include cultural traditions in your wedding FAQ?
Yes. If your wedding includes a tea ceremony, door games, a religious rite or a custom some guests don't know, a short explanation helps everyone feel included.
