Sending emails from your own website address

Your emails to couples and suppliers work from the start. They go out with your business name from an I Said Yes address, and replies come straight to you. Sending them from your own website address instead, so couples see that address in their inbox, is optional. It takes about 15 minutes at the company you pay for your website address, and your emails keep working the whole time.

Once you are signed in, go to Settings and, under Your emails, press See how your emails look. Type your website address and press Start, and three lines appear, each with a Type, a Name and a Value to copy across. They only add a new "send" part to your address, so your website and your normal email keep working exactly as they do now.
