Guest List

Simplify your event planning with PartyLabz's guest list tool. It makes tracking your guests and their RSVPs easy.

Find your event's guest list on a dedicated "Guest List" page, accessible from the event Dashboard. Here, you can manage your guests, view their RSVP statuses, sort, search, and even download and print your guest list.

In the table with the guests you can see their names, guest code, contact information, group a guest in, if guest is marked as a starred guest, how many people a guest brings, RSVP status, how guest RSVP'd and depending on selected sorting you can see time when guest RSVP'd, time when guest visited your event website, or when guest checked in.

You can easily see how each guest RSVP'd by checking the marker next to their RSVP status in the guest list table:

• Host: Shows when you or a co-host set the guest's RSVP status.
• Web: Indicates the guest RSVP'd through your event website.
• Sms: Means the guest RSVP'd by texting one of PartyLabz's shared phone numbers with your event code.
• Call: Shows the guest RSVP'd by calling one of PartyLabz's shared phone numbers.

If you need to, you can visit your event website as if you were one of your guests. Here's how:

• Click on the three dots next to the guest's name to open their menu.
• Choose "Guest's URL" from the menu.
• In the popup that appears, click the "Go" button. This will open a new tab or window.
• You're now viewing your event exactly how your guest would. From here, you can RSVP for them, answer polls, sign up for activities, and more.

You can manage when guests check in and out. Here's how:

• Click on the three dots next to the guest's name to open their menu.
• To set the time, choose "Guest Check In" or "Guest Check Out" from the menu. Later on, you can use guest check-in flag when sending an email/text to guests from the "Messaging Center" page.
• To remove the time, select "Remove huest check in" or "Remove huest check out" from the menu.

Starred guests

You can mark certain guests as important by clicking the star icon next to their name. To unmark them, just click the star again. What the star means is up to you, the host or co-host. You might use it to keep track of certain guests, or to highlight VIPs, speakers, and so on. Right now, starring guests mainly lets you filter them in your list. There aren't any other special actions for starred guests yet.

How to add guests

Here are the ways you can add guests to your Guest List:

• Guests self-register: Share your event's website URL. Guests visit your site, head to the RSVP page, fill out the form, and submit it.
• Adding guests one by one Use the "Add - Add a guest" option. Perfect if you're only inviting a few people.
• Adding guests in bulk: Select "Add - Add guests in bulk" to copy and paste names, emails, and phone numbers from a .CSV file. This is great for when you're inviting lots of guests.
• Importing guests from Google Contacts: You need to let PartyLabz access your Google Contacts. Then, you can pick which emails or phone numbers to add.
• Importing guests from previous events: Choose this if you’re hosting an event for the same group as before.
