Host an event

Set it up below; it takes about a minute.

What is the event called?

For example: Summer BBQ

Your name

Guests will see who is asking — for example: Jamie

When is it?

Guests see it written out, like Saturday 8 August.

More about the event (optional)

What time?

Guests see it beside the date, like 7pm.

Where is it?

A venue or address — guests see it, and it's added to the calendar.

Anything your guests should know?

A line about the day — where to come, when to arrive, what to bring. Everyone you invite reads it, so keep it about the event.

Roughly how many are you inviting?

Lets you see how many have replied.

What your board collects

Turn on what you'd like your board to gather — guests are only ever asked about what you turn on. Turn everything off to collect plain RSVPs.

Food needs & allergiesAllergies and diets — the danger-first board. Drinks — what they can and can't drinkIf you're offering drinks, it adds a column to your board. Access — help guests get in and take partStep-free access, somewhere to sit, a quiet space — the inclusive board.

Guests will be asked what they need to get in and take part; you'll see it on your board and can sort it out with them. What they tell you is health and disability information — they agree before sharing it, only you can see it, and they're never asked why.

Already know what your venue can do? Say so, and guests see it early

What can you provide?

Add the ones you're sure of — guests see them when they pick. Anything you don't add just shows as “not confirmed”, and they can still tell you about it either way.

Add something you can provide

Anything to add? (optional)

If it works but there's a knack to it, say so — every guest who picks this one sees it. About the place, not about a person: please don't name anyone.

+ Set out a menu — let guests choose their dish See who's having what, before the day.

Say what people pick between — “pick one main, pick one pudding” — and guests choose as they answer. Leave it out and nothing changes.
