Wedding websites in South Africa — your story, schedule, venue and RSVP
Wedding websites in South Africa should give guests one link for the story, the day, the place and the reply. Makesite builds a custom one-page site for R649 once, with a live link in about 72 hours. Pay only if you keep it. Based in Cape Town, used across the country. It is not a planner app and not a gift-registry marketplace.

One lovely answer to every guest question
Guests will still text you. The page exists so they do not have to text you for the map, the time, the dress code, or whether children are invited. Put the answers in one scroll they can save.
Tell the story
- • Your names, photos and story

- • Venue details, map and travel notes
- • Dress code, gifts and useful links
Collect the reply
- • Guest RSVP
- • Plus-one details
- • Meal choice and dietary notes
- • A contact for questions
What a wedding website costs
R649 once for a custom one-page wedding site from your brief. No monthly fee from Makesite. Standard hosting uses the host's current free tier. A custom domain's purchase and renewal are separate. For how that sits next to typical built-for-you work, see website design prices in South Africa.
You see a live link in about 72 hours and pay only if you keep it. After you pay and claim, five reasonable changes in six months: a ceremony time that moved, a new photo, an extra shuttle note. There is no change round before payment.
RSVP fields from your brief
The form is not a generic “contact us”. You tell us in the brief which replies you need: attending or not, plus-one, meal choice, dietary notes, song requests if you want them. Those fields are built onto the page. They are not a seating chart, not invitation groups, and not automated guest messaging.
South African weddings often split across a ceremony, a reception, and a travel note for guests coming in from another city. Put those facts on the page so your family is not forwarding the same voice note. If the venue is in the Winelands or along the coast, say how people get there and where they park.
If you already use a registry or a separate ticket tool, the page can link out. Makesite does not become that marketplace.
Made for your day, not a planner suite
Your page is designed around the mood, colours and information in your brief. It is a focused wedding website, not a full guest-management system. Planning another kind of gathering? See event websites. We build from Cape Town: website design in Cape Town.
R649 once
No monthly fee from Makesite. Hosting uses the host's current free tier. Domain extra if you want one. Five reasonable changes in six months after you pay and claim. Not a planner app, not a gift-registry marketplace, not a large multipage catalogue.
FAQ
What goes on a Makesite wedding website?

How much does a wedding website cost with Makesite?
R649 once. No monthly fee from Makesite. Live link in about 72 hours. Pay only if you keep it. See website design prices in South Africa for the national price page.
Is this a planner app or a gift-registry marketplace?
No. It is one page guests can find again. It is not seating plans, invitation groups, automated guest messaging, or a shop for gifts.
When does the RSVP form work?
The RSVP fields are built from your brief. The form is for collecting replies on your page after you have paid and claimed the site, not a full guest-management system.
How many changes do I get after I pay?
Five reasonable changes in the six months after you pay and claim the site. That covers a time change, a new photo, or an extra travel note. Work beyond that is quoted separately.
