Event Schedule

Display your wedding events in a beautiful, organized schedule table

The Event Schedule feature allows you to display all wedding events with dates, times, locations, and descriptions in a clean, responsive table format.

Overview

The schedule page uses an HTML table structure to organize multiple events across different days. Each event includes:

• Date and time information
• Event name and cultural context
• Venue location within the wedding site
• Dress code recommendations
• Detailed descriptions of ceremonies

Implementation

1. Create the Page Structure

   Set up the basic HTML structure with a header and main article section:

   <article id="main">
     <header>
       <h2>Schedule</h2>
       <p>Find the detailed list of events, location inside the venue and hints on the dress code.</p>
     </header>
     <section class="wrapper style5">
       <div class="inner">
         <!-- Schedule content goes here -->
       </div>
     </section>
   </article>
   
2. Build the Schedule Table

   Create a table with date and description columns:

   <div class="table-wrapper">
     <table>
       <thead>
         <tr>
           <th>Date</th>
           <th>Description</th>
         </tr>
       </thead>
       <tbody>
         <!-- Event rows go here -->
       </tbody>
     </table>
   </div>
   
3. Add Event Rows

   Each event is a table row with date and detailed information:

   <tr>
     <td>Thursday, May 5th, 2022</td>
     <td>
       <b>Vara Pooja & Sangeeth</b> <br />
       The Sanskrit word sangeet roughly translates to "sung together". 
       Traditionally, this ceremony was meant for the female guests on both 
       sides of the family to come together for a night of song.<br />
       <br />
       <b>Time </b> : <i>5:00 PM onwards </i> |
       <b>Location </b> : <i>Nakshathra</i> |
       <b>Dress Code </b> : <i>Colorful, Festive Attire</i>
     </td>
   </tr>
   
4. Add Embedded Forms (Optional)

   You can embed Google Forms or other signup sheets for event participation:

   <section id="Sign Up Sheet">
     <iframe 
       src="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/YOUR_FORM_ID/viewform?embedded=true" 
       width="100%" 
       height="1400" 
       frameborder="0" 
       marginheight="0" 
       marginwidth="0">
       Loading…
     </iframe>
   </section>

          <td>

            <b>Dinner</b> <br />
            <b>Time </b> : <i>8:00 PM onwards </i> |
            <b>Location </b> : <i>Swadista</i>
          </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td>Friday, May 6th, 2022</td>
          <td>
            <b>Wedding</b> <br />
            The muhurtham time that the priest determines thereby dictates 
            the start of the Hindu marriage ceremony.<br />
            <br />
            <b>Time </b> : <i>9:00 AM</i> |
            <b>Location </b> : <i>Rudraksha</i> |
            <b>Dress Code </b> : <i>Traditional Indian Attire</i>
          </td>

      </tbody>
    </table>

Customization Options

Event Details

Customize what information to display:

• Event names and types
• Start times (or time ranges)
• Venue locations
• Dress codes
• Cultural explanations

Styling

The table inherits from your CSS:

• .table-wrapper for responsive behavior
• .wrapper.style5 for section styling
• Custom colors and fonts

Pro Tip: Leave the date column empty for subsequent events on the same day to create a cleaner, more readable schedule.

Best Practices

Group Events by Day

List all events for a single day together, only showing the date once in the first row. This makes the schedule easier to scan and more visually organized.

Provide Cultural Context

For traditional ceremonies, include brief explanations of their significance. This helps guests understand the importance of each event and what to expect.

Be Clear About Timing

Use phrases like “onwards” for flexible start times, or specify exact times for ceremonies that must begin promptly.

Link to Related Pages

Add anchor links to signup forms, RSVP pages, or additional details about specific events.

Responsive Design

The .table-wrapper class ensures the schedule table is responsive on mobile devices:

.table-wrapper {
  overflow-x: auto;
  -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
}

On smaller screens, users can scroll horizontally to see all event details without layout breaking.

The schedule table automatically adapts to mobile devices, allowing guests to view your event timeline on any device.
