    We checked 26 website sellers that market to wedding and creative businesses on October 9, 2026. Eighteen publish at least one price. Here is what they charge.

    What does a wedding planner website template cost?

    Templates run from free to $797. You buy a ready-made design, then add your own words, photos and pages. Most wedding-industry templates are built for Showit.

    What does a designer charge to build it for you?

    From $30 for a single freelance page to $11,000+ for a custom brand and website. The real jump comes between a template someone sets up for you (about $2,500 to $4,400) and design from scratch ($8,000 and up).

    What does the website platform cost every month?

    Showit costs $259 a year ($27 month to month) for a site without a blog, or $470 a year ($49 month to month) with its advanced blog. Squarespace costs $19 to $99 a month billed yearly, or $25 to $139 month to month. Wix shows different prices by country, so check its plans page from where you live.

    What does a wedding planner website cost over three years?

    The platform fee adds up, so compare total cost, not the sticker price. Our arithmetic from the prices above, for design plus three years of platform fees (domain and email not included):

    • Free template on Squarespace Core ($348 a year): about $1,044.
    • $699 Showit template on the advanced-blog plan ($470 a year): about $2,109.
    • $2,500 designer-customized Showit site on the same plan: about $3,910.
    • $8,000 custom brand and Showit site on the same plan: about $9,410.

    Why don't some studios publish their prices?

    Eight of the 26 showed no price on the pages we checked: Applet Studio, Nua, IRPR, BlueTone Media, Abby Powell, Ambrose Marketing, Saffron Avenue and Tonic Site Shop (whose directory lets each designer set their own range). Our read, which is opinion rather than data: custom work varies too much to quote up front, and a call lets a studio explain the value before the number. If you're comparing studios, ask each one for a starting price in writing.

    Which platforms do wedding planners actually use?

    In 2026 we reviewed 40 wedding planner websites from our own outreach lists. 13 ran on Wix, 9 on Squarespace, 9 on WordPress, 6 on Showit and 3 on something else. Only 8 of the 40 showed a real price anywhere on the site, and 14 had no schema markup at all (the hidden code that tells Google what a business is). It's a sample, not a survey, but the pattern is clear: most planners don't show prices.

    Is a template or a designer the better buy for a planner?

    A template is cheaper, but you do the work: writing the copy, choosing photos, building pages and setting up SEO yourself. A designer costs more because you're paying for their time and judgment. If you have more time than money and can write clearly about your own services, a template is a reasonable start. If your hours are worth more spent on clients, paying someone usually makes sense.

    Whichever route you choose, speed is where most planner sites fall down. In October 2026 we ran Google's PageSpeed Insights test on 100 wedding planner homepages in the US and UK and got usable results for 73 (the rest wouldn't load, or turned out to be parked, private, blocked or placeholder pages). The median mobile score was 55 out of 100, only 1 scored 90 or above, and the median time for the main content to appear on a phone was 9.7 seconds. Google counts 2.5 seconds or less as good; none of the 73 met that. Our view, which is judgment rather than data: before you pay a final invoice or launch a template, test the homepage on your own phone and in PageSpeed Insights. A price tag tells you nothing about how fast the site will load.

    Where does BrandNLead's pricing fit?

    Full disclosure: we sell websites too. Our wedding planner website starts at $1,000 and includes a year of support, which puts it between a premium template and a designer customization. Our full rebrand with a website is $4,000. Every price we charge is on our pricing page.

    How did we collect these prices?

    On October 9, 2026 we checked the public pages of 26 sellers that market website templates or design to wedding and creative businesses. We recorded only prices printed on the page. Where a seller hid higher tiers, we list the visible one. Prices are in US dollars unless marked. They change often, so confirm on each seller's site before you buy. We'll recheck this page every quarter.

    FAQs

    Is a $30 website good enough for a wedding planner?

    It gets you a single page with a contact form, which works as a placeholder. It won't give you separate service pages, a portfolio or the content Google needs to show you for searches like 'wedding planner in [your city]'.

    Do I have to use Showit as a wedding planner?

    No. Showit is popular with wedding creatives because it's visual and flexible, but of the 40 planner sites we reviewed, only 6 ran on Showit; more used Wix, Squarespace or WordPress. Pick the platform you can update yourself.

    Why do so many designers hide their prices?

    Custom work varies by project, so many studios quote after a call. Eight of the 26 sellers we checked published no price. Asking each one for a starting price in writing is the quickest way to compare them.

    What's the cheapest way to get a professional-looking planner website?

    A premium template, usually $300 to $800, set up carefully by you. Add the platform fee of roughly $19 to $39 a month. Budget a few full days to write the copy and build the pages.
