Guest experience

Collect RSVPs without guest accounts

A guest can open your invitation in a text message and tell you they’re coming. They don’t need a password, a profile or an app. Ask for the household count and any details that will help you welcome them.

Private host link

The management link is separate from the guest link and should be kept private. PartyWelcome emails it to the host when an event is created.

Address privacy

On a new invitation, guests see the venue name and the street address waits until they reply. A host can choose to show the address sooner. Anyone with the guest link can open the invitation.
