In this guide
In a nutshell
- In the editor, open the RSVP part.
- Choose who can reply, whether there are plus-ones, and the deadline.
In the editor, open the RSVP part. You answer three questions and the form on your site changes straight away.
1. Who can reply
- Only people on your list (recommended): each guest types their name and finds their invitation. Nobody else can reply.
- Anyone with the link: simpler. Whoever opens the link registers, and the replies arrive in Guests for you to decide.
2. Plus-ones
Choose No or Yes. With Yes, say how many people each invitation can bring, from 1 to 5. It applies to every invitation. To change just one invitation, open the details of someone on it in Guests, press More details and choose under Plus-ones.
3. The reply deadline
The date shows on the site. Left empty, guests can reply until the wedding day. If you change the wedding date, the deadline moves by the same number of days, if it is still open, and never lands after the day.
To give one invitation a different deadline, change Reply by in the details, under More details. That deadline can't be after the wedding day either.
When you are done, press Save at the bottom of the panel. It saves the three answers and the words of this part in one go. The other options are in Settings, Guests and replies.
