Review before publishing or confirming
Set one clear RSVP process
Choose who owns the final list, set a deadline with time for follow-up, and keep every answer in one system. Parallel replies through calls, family chats and spreadsheets create avoidable counting errors.
- Ask attendance separately for each assigned function
- Confirm adults, children and permitted companions
- Collect meal, dietary and accessibility information only when needed
- Record telephone confirmations in the same master list
A practical follow-up timeline
Send the invitation with a visible deadline, review undelivered links early, send one courteous reminder to pending households, then call only the people whose answer affects capacity or family arrangements.
- First review: check delivery and obvious errors
- Midpoint: answer questions and watch response progress
- Final reminder: contact only guests who remain pending
- Close: export confirmed counts for catering and seating
