For most couples planning their wedding, I recommend they register for a wedding website. What exactly is a wedding website? It's a completely personalized website the couple sets up usually for free, which guests refer to for pertinent information.
Isn't that what the invitation does? Yes and no. Details about the date, location, maps and hotel accommodations are included in an invitation, however, there is some information that should never be listed on an invitation such as "no children or adult only reception" It's also in poor taste to list your gift registry on the invitation.
Wedding websites are a must for destination weddings. Couples post hotel accommodations, the group rates and deadlines, details about the area, excursions and optional events as well as posting photos of themselves and their wedding party. For guests who may not know both the bride and groom equally, additional details such as how they met, likes and hobbies can also be included. Many couples will also take a poll such as where to honeymoon.
I also recommend a website to couples who may be planning their wedding locally, but have many out-of-town guests who know little about the area. Even couples who are staying put and their guests are local can benefit from this little planning tool.
Many websites are free while others charge a nominal fee. The complexity of your wedding may require a fee based site because the capacity is significantly larger but in either case, here is a link to a clearinghouse of wedding websites that compares the options so you know what fits your needs.

Good luck and happy planning.
