Wedding Web 2.0
28/01/07 22:13 Filed in: Blogging
A couple of
years ago, I did up a simple website for my sister,
who was getting married. I used a Blogger template,
and put a load of links in the sidebar for things
like accommodation and wedding list. I hosted the
photos and a couple of movie clips on my .Mac
account, and overall, it looked fine.
Today, my wife's brother and his fiancée have announced the date for their wedding, and I have offered that I would do something similar for them. Things have moved on a bit since 2005, so I reckon I could do a much better job this time round. What I plan to do is as follows:
- Set up the site in Wordpress, with a blog as a home page, for them to update as they wish.
- Use Google Maps for directions to the venue
- A page for accommodation details (including nearby hotels and B&Bs)
- A link to wherever their wedding list is kept
- A special Flickr account for their photos.
Any more ideas?
