Built for UK couples

Two UK wedding website builders, side by side

GettingMarried.co.uk and When Will You Marry are both built for UK weddings and both let guests send cash gifts without fees. The differences are in the plans, the guest limits and what each one includes.

Start building free See a Live Demo

If you are weighing up a Getting Married alternative, you are already comparing like with like. Getting Married is a UK wedding website platform with a free plan for up to 75 guests and two paid plans: GM Essentials at £45 and GM Plus at £89. Its fee-free cash gift list sends money straight to PayPal, Monzo, Revolut or a bank account.

When Will You Marry is also UK-focused and priced in pounds. You can build your site for free, but it only goes live when you publish, which costs £59 once on Standard or £99 once on Premium. Neither of our paid plans limits how many guests can RSVP.

We have kept to what Getting Married says on its own pages, checked on 3 November 2026. Where its site does not say something, such as whether a plan is a one-off payment, we have not filled the gap.

Guest numbers decide the plan

Getting Married sorts its plans by guest count: up to 75 guests free, up to 120 on GM Essentials, and unlimited on GM Plus. If your list is long, that pushes you towards its top plan (see the comparison below). Our plans are not split by guest numbers at all. Standard at £59 includes unlimited RSVPs, so a 200-guest wedding costs the same to publish as a 40-guest one. What moves you up to Premium is features, not headcount.

Cash gifts, compared honestly

Both of us handle cash gifts the same basic way: guests pay into an account you choose, and neither platform takes a fee. On Getting Married that is part of GM Essentials. On When Will You Marry the gift registry is on Premium, at £99, where you set out gifts or funds with an image and suggested amounts and add your PayPal.me, Monzo.me or Revolut.me link or bank details. If cash gifts are the main thing you need, Getting Married reaches them at a lower price, and we would rather you knew that.

From RSVP to table plan

Getting Married's top plan adds a menu manager, tailored guest questions and a table planner. Our Standard plan collects meal choices on every RSVP, including the dietary version of a dish when you offer one, and lets you copy the guest list straight into Google Sheets or Excel. Premium adds a drag-and-drop seating chart that works from the same guest list, so the people who said yes are the people you seat, and a budget tracker for the rest of the costs.

Messages that send themselves

Getting Married includes guest emails on GM Essentials and email stationery on GM Plus. Our email broadcasts, on Standard, are scheduled against your wedding date: write the save-the-date and the RSVP reminder in one sitting, choose when each goes, and target only the guests who have not replied. Premium adds SMS for the day-before nudge or a change of venue, the messages people tend to read straight away.

A web address on your terms

Getting Married includes a personalised website address on GM Essentials. Its pages do not say whether you can bring your own domain, so we have not compared that point. With our Premium plan you can connect any domain you own, from any registrar, by adding one DNS record, and it is served over HTTPS. You can also download a QR code for your site as a PNG or SVG file to print on invitations.

When Getting Married may suit you better

Getting Married is the better choice for a smaller wedding, because its free plan covers up to 75 guests and its paid plans start at £45, below our £59. Its fee-free cash gift list arrives on that £45 plan, where ours needs Premium at £99, and GM Plus includes a table planner for £89. Its free plan also gives you a simple RSVP form on a live site, which we only offer once you publish.

Common questions

How much does a Getting Married wedding website cost?

Getting Married's pricing page lists a free plan for up to 75 guests, GM Essentials at £45 for up to 120 guests, and GM Plus at £89 with unlimited guests. Its pricing page does not say whether these are one-off payments.

Is the Getting Married gift list really fee-free?

Its cash gift list page says there are no fees for you or your guests, with money going to PayPal, Monzo, Revolut or a bank account. Ours works the same way on Premium: guests pay you directly and we take 0%.

Which is better for a large wedding?

On Getting Married, more than 120 guests means GM Plus at £89. On When Will You Marry, Standard at £59 has no guest limit, and Premium at £99 adds the registry, seating chart and SMS.
