Managing Your Guests
Keep your people and their plans in one place, so you can spend more time looking forward to seeing them.
Adding guests
Open Guests on your event and click Add Guest.
- Choose Enter guests.
- Fill in one or more rows. Each guest needs a name; email and notes are optional.
- Click Add Guests.
- Check the result for any rows that need attention.
An email address is needed to send an email invitation. Adding someone doesn't send a message, so you can prepare your list first.
Guests who aren't already on your list can also join by responding through your public event link.
Pasting a guest list
Already have your list in a spreadsheet? You can paste several guests at once.
- Click Add Guest, then Bulk Paste.
- Paste one guest per line, with columns in this order: name, email, notes. Use commas or tabs between columns.
- Click Import Guests and check the result.
For example:
Alex Morgan,[email protected],College friend
Sam Lee,[email protected],
Jamie Patel,,Neighbour
Only the name is required. Leave an empty column when you want to skip an email but include a note. If a row is flagged, check its name and email before trying again.
Tracking RSVPs
Each guest has a response status:
- Pending — no response has been recorded yet. This doesn't necessarily mean an invitation has been sent.
- Yes — they're coming.
- No — they can't make it.
- Maybe — they're still deciding.
If you've customized your RSVP labels, you'll see that wording here too.
The response summary includes everyone in each party. A guest attending with two other people counts as three, even though their party has one row in your list.
Filtering your list
Use the search field to find a guest by name or email. Click a response in the summary to focus on that group, and use Messaged to narrow the list by whether someone has been sent a message.
These are separate questions: someone can have been messaged and still have a pending RSVP. Clear the filters to return to the full list.
Editing guest details
Use a guest's profile button to open their details. You can update their name, email, RSVP status, party size, private note, and answers to your questions.
Click an editable value to change it. Text edits save when you press Enter or move out of the field; Escape cancels the edit. Response choices save when selected.
Private notes are for your planning and aren't shown on the public invitation. If guests tell you their plans have changed, update their response and party size here.
Working with several guests
Select the checkboxes beside the guests you want, or use the table's header checkbox to select everyone currently shown.
- Message selected opens message composition for your selection.
- Delete asks you to confirm removing the selected guests.
- Clear selection lets you start again.
Check your selection before acting, especially after changing filters or moving between pages.
Removing a guest
Use the delete icon beside a guest, or select several guests and choose Delete. You'll be asked to confirm.
Deleting permanently removes their response, party details, and associated sent-message records. If someone simply can't come, change their RSVP to No instead to keep your records together.
