Wedding website RSVPs: meals, plus-ones and multi-day events

A wedding-level yes does not explain whether someone will join Friday drinks or Sunday brunch. Write down the events, their audiences and the counts each supplier needs. Use groups for a shared audience and review individual invitations for exceptions. Keep a family dinner out of the schedule of a guest invited only to the ceremony.

Aisle supports guest groups and per-event invitations and replies. Its guest site shows the schedule relevant to the guest. This is the organizer setup guide; guests looking for how to answer an invitation should use the guest RSVP guide.

Aisle’s RSVP flow supports meal choices and dietary information, and a companion field when the organizer has granted an allowance. Entering a dietary restriction is not a guarantee that a caterer can accommodate it: confirm the arrangement directly and make sure the guest has an answer.

This is a planning example, not a default invitation list. One person may attend Saturday and skip Sunday. Treat unreturned replies as pending rather than assuming that silence means a decline. If an event has its own paid ticket, check that event’s reply and payment status separately; a general wedding acceptance is not proof of payment.

Set your reply deadline early enough to resolve missing answers before the earliest supplier deadline. Explain the date on the site and invitation, then use targeted guest updates for people who still need to answer.

• Check a guest invited to every public event and one with a restricted schedule.
• Check an invitation with no companion allowance and one with a permitted companion.
• Confirm that each meal question lists the options your caterer has agreed to offer.
• After a trusted guest submits their own response, review the saved event and meal answers in your guest list.
• Give guests a contact for corrections after supplier deadlines. Changing a form does not notify a caterer automatically.

Prepare your contacts with the guest import guide and make the invitation wording clear with website FAQ examples.
