Heya
Heya is a no-code, block-based website builder for one-page and small sites where you start building without an account and sign in with Google only when you publish. The free plan is $0 with no credit card and gives you up to 3 sites with up to 5 pages each on a free name.heya.bio address, all 68 templates, 42 fonts, 6 embed types, and responsive sites. Its 3-page wedding template covers your story and countdown, schedule, and travel tips, with venue Google Maps embeds and an RSVP link button for a form like Google Forms.
There are real limits: the free plan has no custom domain and puts a small "Made with Heya" badge on your site, sites top out at 20 pages, and there are no built-in forms, RSVPs, guest list, or password protection (sites are public, though you can hide them from Google). Pro Lite is from $3 a month for 3 sites, up to 20 pages per site, followed links, and no badge; Pro Standard is from $6 a month for up to 5 sites, up to 20 pages, and 1 custom domain; Pro Plus is from $15 a month for up to 25 sites, up to 10 custom domains, and an HTML, CSS, font, and image ZIP download. Heya suits couples who want a fast, customizable 3-page site for their schedule and venue details and prefer to link their own RSVP form and registry.
Joy
Joy gives you a free wedding website at withjoy.com/yourname with free RSVPs, a guest list, and apps for both couples and guests. Its built-in registry lets you add items from other stores and set up cash funds, which are free on Venmo, PayPal, or Cash App, while card gifts carry a 3.5% Stripe fee for the giver plus a $1.70 payout fee. Its custom domain costs about $19.99 a year, but it only forwards, so withjoy.com stays in the address bar. Joy suits couples who want free built-in RSVPs and password protection for the whole site, individual pages, or just the RSVP.
Zola
Zola is free to create and publish, and it keeps your guest management, built-in registry, and RSVPs that collect meal choices together in one account. You can turn on optional password protection, and the only paid feature is a custom domain starting at $17.99 (or you can redirect a domain you already own). The catch is that your site, guest list, and registry all live inside Zola. Zola suits couples who want free RSVPs with meal choices and their guest list in one place.
The Knot
The Knot gives you a free wedding website where you can pick a design, share photos, and match the look to invitations from the same company. It includes an app and lets you manage RSVPs, link your guest list and registry, and set up a custom domain, though the custom domain price and password details are not stated on the page we checked. The Knot suits couples who want to match their free wedding site to their invitations.
Appy Couple
Appy Couple has no free plan and costs €100 a year or €12 a month (it lists prices in euros). That gets you a free Appy Couple address, an RSVP and guest list manager, a free guest app, and privacy settings for open, password, or guest list only, while custom domains cost $19.99 to $30 and you link your own registry. Appy Couple suits couples who are willing to pay for guest-list-only privacy and a dedicated guest app.
What to put on your wedding site and how to handle RSVPs
Guests mostly look for your names, the wedding date, a countdown, and the schedule for each event with times, addresses, and the dress code. You also need travel and hotel tips, a way to RSVP, a registry link, optional privacy settings if you do not want the site public, and a spot to answer questions about parking, kids, and plus-ones. If you want RSVPs, your guest list, and your registry in one account, pick Joy, Zola, or The Knot; if you would rather design the site your way and link out to a tool like Google Forms and your own registry, Heya's 3-page wedding template already has the story, countdown, schedule, and travel pages set up.
FAQ
What is the best free wedding website?
It depends on whether you want built-in management tools or a simple site for your details. If you want your RSVPs, guest list, and registry all in one place, Joy and Zola are both free and include all three, with meal choices on Zola too. If you want a site for your story, schedule, and travel tips without registry or vendor upsells, Heya's 3-page wedding template is free and lets you link out to any RSVP form and registry you like.
Are wedding websites really free?
Yes: Heya, Joy, Zola, and The Knot are all free to create and publish. On those builders, you only pay if you want extras like a custom domain, which starts at $17.99 on Zola, costs about $19.99 a year on Joy (where it only forwards to withjoy.com), or comes with Heya's Pro Standard plan from $6 a month. Appy Couple is not free and costs €100 a year or €12 a month.
Can I password protect my wedding website?
Yes, on most of the builders we checked. Joy lets you set a password for the whole site, individual pages, or just the RSVP, Zola has an optional password, and Appy Couple lets you pick between open, password, or guest list only. Heya sites are public, though you can hide them from Google.
Can I use my own domain for a wedding website?
Yes, though it costs extra on every builder we tested. Zola sells custom domains starting at $17.99 and lets you redirect one you already own, Joy charges about $19.99 a year for a domain that only forwards, Appy Couple charges $19.99 to $30, and The Knot offers custom domains without stating the price. On Heya, you get 1 custom domain on Pro Standard (from $6 a month) and up to 10 custom domains on Pro Plus (from $15 a month).
