Add your own questions to the reply form

Ask the guests who are coming up to five questions of your own: yes or no, one choice, several choices or a short answer. The answers appear in each guest's reply, in RSVP analytics and in the Excel export.

Add a question

  1. Open Invitation, then Guest side, then Your questions.
  2. Press Add a question and type your question in Question.
  3. Under Answer, choose the kind of answer. Turn on Required if every guest who is coming must answer, then save.

Kinds of answer

  • Yes or no: for example, will you take the shuttle bus?
  • One choice: the guest picks one of your choices, such as a session or a T-shirt size.
  • Several choices: the guest can tick several of your choices.
  • Short answer: the guest writes up to 300 characters.

A question can be up to 120 characters long and have 2 to 10 choices. The kind of answer cannot be changed after saving: to ask it differently, remove the question and add a new one.

What guests see

Your questions appear below the reply, only for guests who say they are coming. There is one set of questions for the whole event, not one for each programme part.

Questions are shown exactly as you wrote them and are not translated. For guests who speak two languages, write both, for example "Shuttle bus? / Navetta?".

Where you find the answers

  • In each guest's details, under Your questions.
  • In RSVP analytics, with the totals for each choice. Short answers are read in each guest's reply.
  • In the Excel export, which the event owner can email to themselves with a paid subscription. See Export your guest list.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions can I ask?

Up to five at a time.

Are guests who cannot come asked too?

No. Your questions are only asked of guests who say they are coming.

Can a choice have a limited number of places?

No. For a shuttle bus, a workshop or a tour with limited places, create a programme part with a Capacity.

Can a question appear only after a certain answer?

No. Every question is shown to every guest who says they are coming.
