Bachelorette party RSVP

Friends pick their parts of the weekend, claim a spa slot and give a tee size.

What's inside

Friends who are in tick the parts of the weekend they'll join; ticking the spa morning opens a slot choice that closes at four per slot. Friends who can't come leave a note for the bride instead.

Planning the bachelorette weekend

Send the link two to three months ahead for a trip, six weeks for a night in town. Put the dates, the city and a reply-by date in the intro, so nobody holds a room you then pay for.

Ask about parts of the weekend, not the weekend as a whole. Someone who can only make Saturday night still says yes, and you book dinner and brunch for the right number instead of everyone.

Set the spa slots to the number of treatment rooms the spa gives you. Once a slot is full it shows as taken, so you never phone the spa to squeeze in a fifth person.

Order the tees once replies are in and count sizes from the tee column. The stories about the bride make a ready-made toast for dinner, or a game where everyone guesses who told which one. The groom's side can plan with the bachelor weekend planner.

Bachelorette RSVP questions

Does the bride see the replies?

Only if you share them. Replies go to whoever saved the form, so the stories and the plan can stay a surprise until the weekend. If a co-host helps you plan, send her the export rather than adding the bride to the thread. Notes from friends who can't come sit in the same list, ready to pass on when you choose.

Can I change the activities?

Yes. Rename the four parts to your own plan, a wine tour, a boat or a karaoke room. If you drop the spa, delete the slot question too. Any part with a hard limit, like a boat for eight, can work the same way as the spa: give the slot options a capacity and the form shows each one as full once taken.

How do I collect money for the house or the spa?

Fillio doesn't take payments. Once you know who joins what, send each friend her share by your usual payment app. Split the house cost across everyone who said yes, and the spa or dinner cost only across those who ticked that part. Put a pay-by date in the end screen for friends who say yes, so nobody has to chase it.
