Create your own blog
It's simple to start your own blog. Just write a brief overview introducing your blog, choose a category, select your settings and you're ready to go. Once the blog is set up you can start writing posts and include maps & routes, links, images and videos. You'll also have the ability to view your blog followers.
There are many ways to customise your blog’s appearance; choose from many blog themes to reflect your personality.
Forums
Find threads, friends and give and gain advice in the getwed forums. Whatever you're interested in our forums are the perfect place to strike up conversation with likeminded others.
Getting started
If you are not sure where to start, check out our 'most popular' box – this will show you the most popular threads running in our forums section. You can add your comments to any existing threads and give them a 'like 'or 'dislike' if you wish.
To start a fresh conversation, you can add a new thread, with the options to include photos, maps markers and route
Groups
Join a group and receive updates in your My GetWed feed. Depending on the group settings, you can share content with other group members including photos, videos and routes. Chat on the group wall and check out other members of the group; groups are the perfect way to make friends and find likeminded others to follow.
Create a group
Whatever your passion or interest why not create your own group and get others involved? When you create a group, you have the power to customise your group's content and theme, decide on group member settings and add extra group administrators to help you grow your group.
Plus, you can add other group information including: Group Photos & Videos, Group Maps, Group Events and related content RSS feeds.
Your group can be private, by invitation only or open to all getwed members – it's up to you.
Photos & Videos: Browse, share and comment on photos and videos.
Check out other getwed members' photos and videos for inspiration and ideas. You can add comments, rate with a 'like' or 'dislike' and share elsewhere on the web.
Create as many photo albums as you like and upload your own photos individually or in batches. You can also upload or link to your favourite videos too.
By giving a location to your photos and videos you'll see them display in your maps section too.

Planning tools
Keep important addresses of guests and suppliers in your own address book.
Create a guest list, track RSVPs and guest types.
You can use the interactive 'drag and drop' table and pew planners for the ceremony and reception.
You can enter your own budget and add/edit/remove items from the list using the Budget Planner. Budget can be changed to re-calculate each item proportionately.
Keep organised with a To Do List so you don’t forget a thing. If you add a date it will also be added into your calendar. Create maps to plan routes to the wedding venue and reception. Find map markers and routes to anywhere in the world. So, if you are looking for a wedding venue, wedding fair or church just use Maps. Maps allows you to view directions, which shows distance and route details; add comments and likes to existing directions; measure route distance in miles and km; plot a route or add a marker and add your own directions and markers.
Make your map items private or public and share your maps, directions and markers.
You can share your maps, routes and markers with other getwed members by linking to your other content throughout the site.
You can add your routes to a blog post, groups, forums threads and your Wedding Site
Map your photos
Any photos that have been added with a location will also show on the Map as a thumbnail – great to document places of interest and share them with others. Check out Photo and Videos for more info.
