The Verdict
Squarespace is an excellent general website builder, but building a full destination wedding experience on it requires significant customization — RSVP forms, guest management, travel logistics, and accommodation tracking all need custom solutions or third-party tools. Aisle provides all of this out of the box, purpose-built for destination weddings. If design flexibility is your top priority, Squarespace wins. If you want wedding logistics handled without custom code, Aisle is the clear choice.
