A wedding website has one job most other sites never face: it has to carry the feeling of a specific day while still doing the plumbing work of collecting RSVPs and getting guests to the right place at the right time. Every template on this page is designed and maintained in-house by uiCookies, built for that exact balance rather than adapted from a generic landing-page layout.
A good celebration site earns its keep on a handful of essentials. Guests need the date, venue and start time in the first scroll; they need an RSVP they can complete on a phone in ten seconds; and they usually want travel or directions, a gallery, and the couple's story. Because the emotional register matters as much as the information, palette and typography do more heavy lifting here than in almost any other niche — so we ship each template with a distinct, finished mood rather than a blank grey shell.
Everything here is free to download, built on Bootstrap 5, and completely jQuery-free. Each one comes with a live demo you can click through and a direct download — plain HTML and CSS you edit by hand, no account, no framework build, no dependency to untangle before you can change a name or a date.
The templates
Wedding
The uncluttered classic — a single-page save-the-date that a couple can personalise faster than any other template here. It walks straight down the essentials in one scroll: the couple's story, the event details, a photo gallery, and an RSVP with a simple yes/no and a note field. Best for people who want something clean, warm and quick to ship, and who would rather swap a name and a photo than manage a dozen extra sections. It ships with compiled CSS ready to go, with the original SCSS source included if you want to restyle at the source.
Everly
The most feature-complete single-couple site in the collection, and the one for people who want the invitation itself to look designed. It carries a botanical bordeaux-and-eucalyptus palette with elegant Cormorant Garamond typography, and packs in a live countdown, an alternating story timeline, wedding-party, registry and travel sections, and an RSVP that captures meal choice, guest count and even a song request. Best for design-led couples who want every section covered in one self-contained page — no build step, no jQuery, edit it directly and host it anywhere.
Vows
The only template here built for the wedding business rather than a single couple — a planning studio and private venue instead of one save-the-date. It runs on a grown-up mulberry-wine, antique-gold and mauve-blush palette with an arched estate-window motif, and it is structured for lead generation: priced collections, a filterable real-weddings gallery with a lightbox, a planning-process timeline, testimonials and an enquiry form with date and guest-count fields. Best for wedding planners, coordinators and venue owners who need a portfolio site that turns browsers into enquiries.

How to choose
Start with who the site is for, because it decides everything else. Wedding and Everly are single-event sites for one couple — Wedding when you want minimal and fast, Everly when you want the full editorial treatment with a countdown, timeline and registry. Vows is a different animal: it is a marketing site for a planner or venue, built to show priced collections and past weddings and capture enquiries. Choosing a couple's template for a business (or the reverse) means fighting the layout for the life of the project, so settle this first.
For a couple's site, the RSVP is the feature that actually earns its place — and it is also the one most people get wrong. These are static templates, so the form is front-end markup only; on its own it stores nothing. You wire it to a forms service like Formspree, Netlify Forms or a Google Apps Script that writes to a Sheet, and only then do responses land somewhere you can read them. Everly's richer RSVP (meal choice, guest count, song request) meaningfully cuts the back-and-forth of chasing dietary needs by text, which is worth more than it looks. Beyond that, weight the extras against your timeline: a countdown, travel directions and a gallery are lovely for a long engagement and overkill for a six-week turnaround, so pick the template whose section list you will actually fill.
On customization and hosting, these are plain static sites and that is a feature. Because they are jQuery-free HTML and CSS, you edit names, dates and copy in any text editor and swap images in the folder — Everly and Vows in particular are self-contained with no build step to run first. Host any of them free on Netlify, Cloudflare Pages or GitHub Pages and point a custom domain at it. The single biggest real-world pitfall is images: wedding pages are photo-heavy, and dropping full-resolution camera JPEGs straight into the gallery will crush load times on the venue Wi-Fi where half your guests will open the link — compress and resize before you upload. For a business site like Vows, also plan where the enquiry form routes (inbox or CRM) and keep the portfolio current, and if you use a countdown, double-check the date and timezone so it doesn't quietly finish early.
Frequently asked questions
Are these really free, and can I use them for a paid or client wedding?
Yes — every template here is free to download and use for both personal and commercial projects. That covers your own wedding, a wedding you're building for a paying client, or a venue's or planner's own business site.
Will they work properly on phones?
Yes. They're built on Bootstrap 5's responsive grid and tested down to small screens, which matters because most guests open a wedding link on their phone — the RSVP forms, menus and galleries are designed for thumb-tapping, not just desktop.
Do I need Node or a build step to edit them?
No. They're plain HTML and CSS you can edit in any code editor. Everly and Vows are self-contained with nothing to compile; Wedding ships with ready-to-use compiled CSS and also includes the SCSS source if you'd rather restyle at that level.
Where do RSVP and enquiry submissions actually go?
The forms are front-end markup, so by themselves they don't store anything. Connect the form to a service like Formspree, Netlify Forms or a Google Apps Script that writes to a Sheet — then submissions land somewhere you can read and export them.
Can I run one of these on WordPress or another CMS?
They're static templates rather than WordPress themes, so they're happiest hosted as static HTML on something like Netlify or Cloudflare Pages. You can port the markup and styles into a CMS or embed individual sections, but that's a manual job, not a one-click install.
Are they fast, and what should I watch out for?
They're jQuery-free with minimal dependencies, so the templates themselves are light. The main performance risk is your own photos — compress and resize wedding images before uploading, and let the gallery lazy-load, or a page full of full-size JPEGs will feel slow on mobile.
