How do I add buttons and links?
Create clickable buttons and text links to direct guests to other pages or websites.
Short answer: Use the button option in text sections or highlight text and add a link to create clickable elements.
Adding a button
- Edit the section where you want a button
- Look for Add Button or the button icon
- Enter the button text (e.g., "Book Hotel")
- Add the destination URL
- Choose to open in new tab (recommended for external links)
- Save changes
Adding a text link
- Type or select the text you want to link
- Click the Link icon in the editor
- Enter the URL
- Choose to open in same tab or new tab
- Save changes
Link options
Open in same tab: Replaces your website with the linked page
Open in new tab: Opens link in a new browser tab (keeps your site open)
For external websites, always choose "open in new tab."

Button styling
Depending on your theme, you can often customize:
- Button color

Linking to other pages on your site
To link to another page on your wedding website:
1. Get the page URL (e.g., yoursite.wedsites.com/travel)
2. Use just the path (/travel) or full URL
3. Same-tab opening works well for internal links
Tips
- Make button text action-oriented ("Book Now" vs "Click Here")
- Test all links after publishing
- Use descriptive link text for accessibility
- Don't overload pages with too many buttons
- Ensure important links stand out visually
