About .WEDDING Domain Names
This domain name extension renews at the same cost (tier) it is registered. For example, if you register a domain for $100, the cost to renew it each year will be $100.
Weddings are both joyous and stressful events for all participants. The .wedding domain name offers a collaborative space to plan and organize a wedding online. Invite guests, put together registries, plan showers, share ingenious ideas on how to pull off an on-budget wedding, and have guests feel more connected with .wedding.
Registration Phases
The .wedding launch is divided into two registration phases: Trademark Holder (Sunrise) and Pre-Registration (General Availability.) Each phase has specific application requirements:
Pre-Registration
Pre-registration gives you the best possible chance of securing a domain name before it's available to the general public, but it doesn't guarantee you will get it. You can only pre-register for General Availability, and we'll submit your registration application when the phase begins.
Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee.
Trademark Holders Registration - Sunrise
From January 28, 2015 at 16:00 UTC to March 30, 2015 at 16:00 UTC, trademark holders can submit an application to register a .wedding domain containing their owned mark, before it's available to the public.
Trademark validation goes through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH), which is an ICANN global repository for trademark data. Visit the TMCH website for information on registering a trademark.
Bulk .wedding registration is not supported during Sunrise.
If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we cannot refund the application fee.
You cannot cancel your pre-registration application. If you are awarded the domain name, you have 5 days to cancel your domain name and get a refund of the registration fee.
Pre-Registration - General Availability
Beginning April 8, 2015 at 16:00 UTC, customers can register .wedding domain names on a first-come, first-served basis.
Bulk .wedding registration is supported during General Availability.
Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee.
If you are awarded the domain name, you have 5 days to cancel your domain name and get a refund of the registration fee.
