Getting 90% of RSVPs before your wedding deadline

A visible deadline, one-tap replies and well-timed reminders that respect Shabbat: how to stop chasing guests on the phone.

October 5, 2026

Caterers want a headcount ten days ahead and the venue a seating plan a week before. Three simple rules make the difference.

A clear deadline

Set it three weeks before the wedding and show it right under the reply button. A precise date gets more replies than “as soon as possible”.

Replying in under twenty seconds

No account, no password: guests open their link, tick the events and the number of people, done. Extra questions (menu, allergies, hotel) only appear if you need them.

Reminders that respect your guests

One reminder a week before the deadline, another three days before, never more than one message a day and never on Shabbat or holidays. Guests who replied receive nothing more.
