Adding a new section

Learn how to add content blocks like headings, images, timelines, and more to build your wedding website pages.

Sections are the building blocks of your wedding website. Each section is a piece of content like a heading, paragraph, photo, timeline event, or any other element on your pages.

How to add a section

  1. Go to Site in your main navigation
  2. Click Add section in the actions row at the top of the page
  3. Pick the type of section you want to add from the list
  4. Fill in the fields for that section type
  5. Click Save changes

Your new section appears on your website right away!

Choosing a section type

You'll see a bunch of different section types to choose from. Here are the main ones:

Text sections: Heading, Paragraph, Quote
Media sections: Image, YouTube, Vimeo, Spotify
Interactive sections: Button, Link, Guestbook form
Wedding-specific sections: Timeline, Wedding party, Place, Gift registry
Live streaming sections: Zoom, Facebook Live, YouTube Live, Lovecast, EventLive
Utility sections: Page divider, Blank space, HTML code, Sidebar

Pick the one that matches what you want to add. Not sure which one to use? Each section type has a helper description to explain what it's for.

What happens after you add it

Your section appears at the bottom of your page by default. You can move it around later by dragging it or using the up/down arrows.

It's live immediately if your site is published. If you want to work on it privately first, you can make it a draft or keep your whole site unpublished while you build.

You can edit it anytime. Click on the section to open the editor and make changes.

Adding sections to different pages

When you add a section, you'll choose which page it goes on. This could be your home page or any other page you've created.

You can also add a section and assign it to multiple pages if you want the same content to appear in different places.

Tips for adding sections

Start with the basics. Add a heading to create a new section of your site, then add paragraphs, images, or whatever content belongs under that heading.

Think about order. Sections appear in the order you add them (newest at the bottom). You'll probably want to reorder things after you add a few sections.

Don't overthink it. You can always edit, move, or delete sections later. Just add what you need and adjust as you go.

Add one at a time. It's easier to see how each section looks before adding the next one.

After you add sections

Once you have a few sections on your page, you might want to:

Reorder them. See our article on reordering sections.

Customize the look. Check out section customization to change colors, spacing, and more.

Make some private. If certain content is only for some guests, see making a section private.
