Can guests RSVP on my wedding website? How do I set that up?

Yes, guests can RSVP online through your Wedding Website! Our online RSVP feature is linked to your Guest List.

In order for guests to RSVP online, 1) their names must be added to your guest list (including all plus ones, children, etc.) and 2) they must be "Definitely Invited" to at least one Event you've created. Want to learn more about setting up your guest list? Visit this page.

To set up online RSVPs on your wedding website, follow these steps:

  • Visit the "Your Events" page in your guest list.
  • Click through each of the events and make sure that the option "Let guests RSVP on website" is toggled on for any events you want to request an RSVP.

  • Consider if you'd like to ask your guests about their meal preferences for each event, and enter the options they can choose from
  • Ask any other questions to your guests that you'd like (be sure to check out "See Common RSVP Questions" for inspiration)

If you do not want to let guests RSVP online for an event, just make sure you turn off that option next to "Let guests RSVP on website."
