Wedsite help, por favor!

Hey all!

I finally got started on our wedsite, and just had a question...

What am I supposed to put on it?! So far I have: About Us, Venue info, Directions, Contact info...

I feel like I'm drawing a blank. If you have any ideas I'd totally appreciate them!

I have an online RSVP page, Venues/directions, hotel options, local stuff to do, music requests, registry links, a FAQ page, and a contact us page.

This, plus what you've got already, is pretty much what we had.

Oh, and a transportation page (to get to the hotel from various destinations - we had lots of out of town guests). I got a special code/rate from airlines, shared info regarding buses, the train, approximate taxi rates to the hotel from the train station & airport, etc.

Instead of a "here's info about the bridal party" page, which was pretty much just our family, we had a few pics up with some description of the family members (mostly so people who'd never met them before would be a bit familiar with them).

We also had a special page about Hindu weddings (as half the guests were not familiar with them) and the temple.

If you want to see, here it is (got married just over a year ago!): http://www.mywedding.com/sunilanderica/

Ha, thanks. We have room for a much larger guest list at both venues, and I hate the idea of telling people they can't have their +1s. How do you dance to the slow songs without your dance partner?

I second this- I like reading about how the couple knows everyone in their wedding party.

If you have a dress code in mind, I'd add that as well.

If you have people coming from far away:
airport / public transit info
nearby hotels
local attractions and restaurants

Other:
dress code (including info about local weather in your area around the time of your wedding)
registries
an FAQ page where you address issues such as if single guests are allowed to bring dates or not, if vegetarian/vegan/gluten free/nut free/etc foods will be available.
3 or 4 sentence bios of the wedding party
