History and Background of the .WEDDING Domain

The .WEDDING domain extension was delegated in the mid-2010s as part of ICANN's new generic top-level domain program. Delegation refers to the point when a domain extension is officially added to the global domain name system and becomes technically active.

After delegation, the extension typically went through standard launch phases, including a sunrise period (which allows trademark holders to register names first) before becoming available to the general public. Today, .WEDDING is commonly used for wedding planning and event-related websites.

Why you might not choose .WEDDING

While .WEDDING is expressive and memorable, there are some limitations:
  • Single-purpose: Best suited for wedding-related projects.
  • Short-term use: Often tied to a specific event.
  • Brand flexibility: Less adaptable for long-term sites.
  • Recognition: Less familiar than traditional domains.

For broader branding flexibility, Website.com prioritises extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG. .WEDDING domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.
