Guest List Help

Kortinae, on January 23, 2018 at 8:23 AM Posted in Account Support 1 7

Hello,

I am trying to add my guest list to the site so people can RSVP through our website. I am wondering if there are more advanced settings anywhere for the guest list? What I want to happen is once someone RSVP's their name is no longer searchable on the RSVP list on the website. My grooms family has about 100 people with the same last name and that can be a lot to sort through. Also, we are allowing our single guests to bring dates and I was wondering if there was a way to add that to the guest list so they can RSVP their self and their date. note: we don't know the dates names to add them ourselves and would like the guests to add their names when they RSVP as we are doing assigned seating for the reception.

    Hi Kortinae!

    I suggest changing your RSVP settings so that your guests need to search for their name by first AND last name. This way they need to enter their full name instead of searching by a last name that may return lots of results!

    To change this setting:

    - Log in to your WeddingWire account and open the website editor

    - Navigate to your RSVP page

    - Click on the wrench icon to edit the section with the guest search

    - Change the name search settings at the bottom of the Manage RSVP Tool pop-up

    - Don't forget to click Save Changes

    For plus ones, we recommend adding those guests in this format:

    Household: Mr. John Doe & Guest
    Guests: John Doe, Guest Doe

    Thank you, but if I change it to search by first & last name how will they find their guests in the list? I don't want to have to tell everyone to search for their guest by John Doe, Guest Doe that sounds incredibly confusing.

    Hello Lynnie,


    I am trying to look for this feature. Is it still available to edit the RSVP tool to require first AND last name? I tried finding the wrench but do not see this option anywhere.


    Thanks!
