Frequently Asked Questions

What is a wedding guest list manager?
A guest list manager is a tool that stores every invitee in one place—names, households, plus-ones, addresses, RSVP status, and notes like allergies—so you are not juggling texts and spreadsheets.
Can I track RSVPs and dietary restrictions?
Yes. Mark each guest as attending, pending, or declined, and store dietary or allergy notes so your caterer receives an accurate count.
How do plus-ones and households work?
Group people who live together, attach plus-ones where allowed, and split the list by partner side if you want. That keeps invitations, seating, and headcount accurate.
