Hey hey to all the newly engaged couples out there! Are you still in the post-bliss of telling all your friends and family…and wondering where, oh where do you start when it comes to planning the actual wedding? We hear you! There’s a lot to take in from Save the Dates and invitations to creating a registry, a guest list, and perhaps even a wedding website with all the details. But now is not the time to stress! Our friends over at Zola want to take the hard work out of the equation so that you can keep on enjoying this precious time as an engaged couple, sans stress.
The team at Zola knows a thing or two about making things seamless and easy when it comes to planning your wedding + registry. They offer free wedding websites which have matching Save the Date cards and invitations—so everything is complementary and on theme. They simplify the process of gathering guests’ addresses and data and all that good stuff that goes into sending out snail mail. AND, they make it easy for both you and your guests to navigate the wedding registry! They’ll be thanking you for that later, we’re sure. ;)
Want to take a peek at some of our favorite features that make the whole process a breeze? Let’s look:
Save the Dates + Invitations
When it comes to Save the Dates and invitation suites, Zola has over 200 gorgeous designs to choose from to match your wedding theme (or perhaps, inspire it!). To make everything cohesive, each of the designs has a matching free wedding website.
You + your love can personalize all the text, upload your own photos and choose from a myriad of customizable options: paper type, corner styles, foil, etc. That way everything reflects who you two are as a couple.
One thing that’s super important + a major WIN? They’re affordable! Save the Dates start at $1.35, and invitations start at $1.99. On top of that, Zola offers free guest and return addressing! Taking the busy work out of it and allowing you more time to focus on the rest of your To-Do list, it automatically integrates with Zola’s guest list manager to make addressing + managing RSVPS a no-brainer!
Wedding Registry
When it comes to the wedding registry, Zola allows you so many helpful tools to actually make it, well, fun (instead of daunting). They offer a Registry Checklist, Registry Planner, and your own Registry Advisor, making sure you don’t miss a thing!
Oh, and sooo many staples are available on their site. Yep, over 500 brands! Some of our favorites include Le Creuset, Kitchenaid, and even Airbnb!
An advantage of doing a registry with Zola? Say you’ve already got what you need for your place…your friends and family can treat you with cash funds and gift cards for your next epic holiday!
And, once again, making everything seamless—Zola makes it convenient for you + your guests with free shipping, easy exchanges and returns. It’s basically the most guest-friendly registry with options for every budget. Win, win, win.
Free Wedding Websites
Wedding websites are a fun way to keep your guests informed—give them all the wedding details, share stories, and travel info (super helpful for destination weddings or for those guests that are coming from out of town!). On top of that, you can allow your guests to RSVP online, saving both you + them time. Plus, Zola offers a free guest list manager so you can easily collect addresses by email or text!
One of the beautiful things about having a wedding website with Zola? It integrates with Zola Registry, making shopping for wedding presents seamless for your guests! Easy peasy is how we like things. :)
Here’s a little bonus for you:
1. $50 towards your Zola registry when you receive $500 in gifts
2. Price matching on approved retailers
3. Take 20% OFF the remaining gifts on your registry post-wedding
4. Free Shipping and Returns at Zola!
Boooyah! Zola is making things easy, each + every step of the way! From sending out invitations to designing your first home and all the fun stuff that comes in between…go ahead + get planning, Zola’s got your back! ;)
