Both Elementor and Contact Form 7 are two of the most popular WordPress plugins. Elementor is the most popular page builder plugin while Contact Form 7 is one of the most popular form builder plugins. You can integrate these plugins to create a better contact form on your website.

You can actually create a beautiful contact form with Elementor only. However, you have to upgrade to the pro version since form element is only available on the pro version. Thankfully, Contact Form 7 works through shortcode and the shorcode element is available on the free version of Elementor so you can create a beautiful contact form for free on WordPress by integrating Elementor and Contact Form 7.
