Engagement party RSVP

Get a headcount for the party and a note for the couple from every guest.

What's inside

Guests who come say how many are coming and which of you they know. Everyone, coming or not, can leave the couple a note.

Hosting the first party of the engagement

An engagement party usually comes a few weeks to a few months after the proposal, and the invitation can be casual. Send the link by text or in the family group chat two to four weeks ahead.

This is often the first time both families and both friend groups meet. The question about who each guest knows gives you a quick map for introductions, name tags or seating, without asking anyone to explain their history.

Keep the guest count tight if the venue holds a set number. The headcount question allows up to four people per reply; lower the limit in the editor if invitations are for one or two.

Read the notes aloud at the toast, or save them for the couple. When the wedding is set, the same guests are one tap from your wedding RSVP.

Engagement party RSVP questions

Who should host the engagement party?

Anyone close to the couple: parents, friends or the couple themselves. The form works the same either way; change the title and intro to say who is hosting. If two families share the hosting, save the form under one account and send the export to the other side, so both work from one guest count instead of two lists that never match.

Can guests leave a note even if they can't come?

Yes. The note field shows for everyone, so a guest who sends regrets can still send their congratulations along with the reply. They skip the guest count, so your headcount only adds up people who are coming. Notes from relatives far away are often the ones the couple keeps longest, so export them after the party and send the full list.

Can I change the couple's names in the options?

Yes. The “Who do you know?” choices are plain text you can rename, and nothing else in the form depends on their words. If one of you goes by a nickname with family, use the name both sides know, or write both, like “Jim (James)”. A third option for friends of both families already covers guests who know you as a pair.
