#2. Webcast your marriage

Fret not if a loved one can’t make it to your wedding. You can have your entire wedding rituals and the proceedings broadcasted online through a wedding website. Just have a website created and invite friends and relatives back home to the website, to watch it live or download it. Video-streaming is the latest way to have friends and family afar take part in the wedding. It’s similar to watching a video on YouTube.
