Keeping track of RSVP replies
The list updates itself as replies come in. What matters is reading the numbers correctly.
Where is the guest list in the app?#
Whatâs in the list#
Attending
Everyone who said theyâre coming. Those who entered a name appear by name, those who didnât appear as an unnamed attendance â both count toward the total.
Canât make it
Everyone who said they canât come.
Awaiting reply
People the invitation was sent to who havenât answered yet.
Estimating your final headcount#
Thereâs a rule of thumb that holds up well: about half of the people who havenât replied will come. For a rough estimate:
| Calculation | Example |
|---|---|
| Said âattendingâ | 90 |
| Half of those awaiting reply | 40 awaiting â +20 |
| Estimated attendance | ~110 |
Tracking it together with your partner#
If you make your partner a co-host, they can see the guest list too; you both look at the same list.
Do unnamed replies mess up the count?
No. The attendance counter works regardless of whether a name was entered; your total is always correct. Names only matter for things like the seating plan.
Do people I shared the link with myself show up in the list?
They appear once they reply. But because the system doesnât know who you sent it to, they arenât included in the âawaiting replyâ count.
Can I share the list with the venue?
Itâs better practice to strip out the phone numbers and give only names and numbers â your guestsâ details are personal data.
Can I resend to the people who havenât replied?
Yes, you can send to the same people again; each send comes out of your package.
Can my partner see the list too?
Yes. If youâve made your partner a co-host, they have access to the same guest list.
