Put your wedding on the map

Worried about your guest finding your ceremony site? Can't figure out how to get all of those directions on you invitation inserts? Check out WeddingMapper.com. This site lets you create a custom map for your wedding, for free. All you need to do is enter the addresses for your locations, and Wedding Mapper does the rest.

What's great is that you can customize your map even further by adding site descriptions, Web links and phone numbers for each location--you can even upload a photo. Think beyond your ceremony and reception venues and add hotels, restaurants, airports and tourist attractions. Your wedding map can be a one-stop resource for bot your out-of-town and local guests.

The free map service is wonderful, but I really think their upgraded map is a steal at $9.95. You get to create a custom url for your map, which is great especially if you don't already have a wedding Web site to direct guests to. You're also able to add links to other Web pages and upload files--so if you don't want to make a wedding Web site, you can add virtually all of the info your guests will need here. And, if you do have a Web site, the paid version help you insert your custom map into your own site. And finally, you won't see ads on your map, which is always an added bonus.
