How much does a wedding website cost in 2026 (real prices)
If you’re wondering how much a wedding website costs in 2026, the short answer is: anything from €0 (very basic free versions) to €150-300 or more if you commission a fully bespoke design. Most couples, however, pay between €40 and €130 for a website with its own design, RSVP, photo gallery and a personalised domain. Within that range, platforms where you build it yourself tend to sit between €30 and €80, and services that make it for you come in at around €100-130. At NUO, for example, plans start at €44.90 as a one-off payment and your website is ready in 24-48 hours. In this guide we explain real market prices, what each figure depends on and how to tell whether you’re paying a fair price.
Real wedding website prices in 2026
There’s no single price, because not all wedding websites are the same. What you pay depends mainly on two things: who makes it (you, a platform, a freelancer or an agency) and how much work it involves. These are the guide ranges you’ll find on the market today. They’re approximate figures given as ranges: every provider sets its own terms, so treat them as a reference, not a fixed price.
| Option | Guide price | How you pay | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free template (DIY platforms) | €0 | Free, with limits | Simple weddings, with no custom design or domain |
| Subscription platform | Usually a monthly or annual fee | Recurring subscription | Couples happy to keep paying while the website stays online |
| “Done-for-you” premium template service | Approx. €20-60 | Usually a one-off payment | Most couples |
| Freelancer / designer | Usually from €150 upwards | Custom quote | Couples who want something personalised with direct contact |
| Agency / bespoke website | Usually over €300 | Custom quote | A 100% exclusive design with no limits |
The free option: watch out for the small print
Some platforms let you create a wedding website for free. It’s great for getting by, but they usually come with a limited design, adverts for the platform itself, a not-so-elegant address (something like yourplatform.com/yourname) and restricted features. If you want to explore this route, we cover the real options in our guide on how to make a wedding website for free, with their advantages and limits.
Subscription platforms: the cost adds up
Other tools work on a subscription basis: you pay a monthly or annual fee for as long as the website is live. The entry price looks low, but if you add up the months from when you start planning the wedding until after the big day, the total can end up being a lot more than you expected. Always check how long you’ll be paying for.
Freelancer and agency: personalisation in exchange for budget
A freelance designer or an agency will build you a more personalised website with direct contact, but it’s the most expensive option. The price shoots up here because you’re paying for hours of human work: meetings, layout, revisions. It usually makes sense if you need something very exclusive or unusual features; for a standard wedding, it almost always means paying over the odds.
What affects the price of a wedding website?
Two websites can cost €40 and €200 and look similar from the outside. The difference is in the detail. These are the factors that weigh most on the price:
- Design: a standard template costs much less than full personalisation. What matters is that the design fits your style.
- Features included: RSVP, photo gallery, venue map, countdown, music, your love story, transport and accommodation information… The more it includes as standard, the better.
- Your own domain: having your own address (something like yournames) gives a far better impression than a generic URL.
- “Done-for-you” service: having it built for you is not the same as having to make it yourself from scratch. That’s where many couples gain time and peace of mind.
- Delivery time: rush jobs tend to cost more, especially with a freelancer or agency. With an agile service, fast delivery shouldn’t cost you extra.
- Payment method: one-off payment versus subscription. A one-off payment closes the expense; a subscription keeps running month after month.
What should a fair price include?
Before you sign up, check that what you pay gets you at least this:
- A polished design that adapts to mobile (most guests will open it on their phone).
- RSVP with a dashboard where you can see who’s coming, allergies and messages.
- A photo gallery to share memories.
- Useful sections: countdown, map, your story, transport and accommodation.
- Complete clarity on payment: knowing whether it’s one-off or recurring, and how long it will stay online.
If you’re deciding between a full website and something lighter, it will help to read our comparison of wedding website vs. digital invitation, because you don’t always need the same thing and the price varies quite a bit between the two.
How much a wedding website costs at NUO
At NUO we believe a good wedding website doesn’t have to cost a fortune or tie you into fees. That’s why we work with a one-off payment from €44.90, with no subscriptions and the website online for a year. We have three plans:
- Esencia: from €44.90. The option to have your website with its own design and the essentials sorted.
- Plus: more features for a more complete website.
- Especial: the most complete plan, with extras such as the collaborative gallery with a QR code so guests can upload their photos from the big day.
We’d rather not quote exact figures for Plus and Especial in this article, because prices may be adjusted: you’ll always find them up to date on our pricing and plans page. And the best part: before paying anything, you can try a free preview in the NUO builder and see how your wedding website would look with your names, your date and your photos.
Whichever plan you choose, the website is ready in 24-48 hours, you have 7 styles to choose from (Aurora, Dust, Slate, Ivory, Terra, Bloom and Marais) and features such as RSVP with a private dashboard, map, countdown, music and your story. You can see everything it includes on the page about our wedding websites.
Is it worth paying for a wedding website?
For most couples, yes. For a small price you save yourself building it, you get a polished design and you keep all your RSVPs in one place, which saves you hours of organising and scattered WhatsApp messages. Within the total budget of a wedding, the cost of the website is minimal, and your own well-made website gives a much better impression than a generic free template. The key is not to overpay: look for a one-off payment, with no fees, and with what you’ll actually use included.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a wedding website cost on average?
Most couples pay between €40 and €130 for a website with its own design, RSVP and a domain: less if you build it yourself on a platform, more if someone designs it for you. There are very basic free options, and bespoke websites from freelancers or agencies that usually cost more than €150-300. At NUO, plans start at €44.90 as a one-off payment.
Are there free wedding websites?
Yes, there are free versions with the essentials, but they usually have a limited design, adverts and a not very personalised address. Paid plans from €44.90 add your own design, your domain and full features. You can see the free options and their limits in our guide on how to make a wedding website for free.
Is it a one-off payment or a subscription?
It depends on the provider. Many platforms work on a monthly or annual subscription, so the cost builds up for as long as the website stays online. At NUO it’s a one-off payment from €44.90, with no fees, and the website stays live for a year.
Can I try the website before paying?
At NUO, yes. You can create a free preview at crea.nuoboda.es and see how your wedding website would look with your names, date and photos before you decide. You don’t need to sign up or give your card details.
How long does it take to be ready?
At NUO, the website is ready in 24-48 hours. With a freelancer or agency the timeframe is usually longer, and rush jobs can push up the quote. If you’re short on time, prioritise an agile service with fast delivery included.
