Walkthrough

From invitation to keepsake

Every step below is part of the product, not a promise for later.

Step 1

Before you send

  • Pick a template that matches the occasion — the wording, schedule and FAQs come pre-filled.
  • Walk the twelve-step wizard: basics, people, date and venue, theme, photos, story, RSVP questions, travel, gifts, schedule, reminders, review.
  • Ask PlanMyEvent AI to draft anything you'd rather not write. Every draft is editable and nothing publishes without you.
  • Preview as you build — on desktop and phone — then publish when it feels right.

Step 2

Getting replies

  • Share one link, or print the QR code for cards and church bulletins.
  • Guests reply with party size, additional names, travel status, dietary and accessibility needs.
  • Everyone gets a personal link so they can change their answer without emailing you.
  • Guests can ask the page a question and get an answer from your own event details.

Step 3

Keeping everyone informed

  • Schedule reminder campaigns at one month, two weeks, one week, day before or morning of.
  • Post an update — parking, weather, a room change — and choose who should receive it.
  • Preview recipients and consent counts before anything sends. Nothing goes out without your confirmation.

Step 4

On the day

  • Check guests in by name or code, with a live arrival count.
  • Work the seating planner with dietary and accessibility flags in view.
  • Watch the command centre for late arrivals and no-shows.

Step 5

After the celebration

  • Switch the page into thank-you mode; the original event details stay archived.
  • Approve guestbook messages and gallery photos so the page becomes a keepsake.
  • Send one thank-you message to everyone who came.
