Depends on what exactly they did. If they only defaced then you can just apply the detault index page back on. Also, if your cPanel has a virus scanner then use it to scan for shells. If they deleted a lot of stuff and changed things around and you don't know which files to replace etc then just restore from a backup.

I also suggest you use codeguard for the future.

did you had concluded any backup before? i think they changed or disabled your index page!!
do u can still access your CP?
if the hacker only gain control of your CMS admin page, then do the followings:
- login to your host control panel, change mysql user/password
- after changed the mysql user/password then login to your root using ftp and configure DB access with new user password lines...

some thing like this
define ("DBUSER",

&

define ("DBPASS",

If the hacker take over your domain like change dns servers, move domain to new host etc.... then you should consult with your host and your domain registrar to get it back
 
I just check your website and Does not hacked by virus or malware, hacker only modify your index page, It means hacker have a login details of your account..

Better install a fresh wordpress blog and change ftp password, mysql, phpmyadmin, control panel password, etc password.
 
They hacked your Wedding site? What do you uploaded there? ;)
-Just restore backup and change all the password and mail password.
