Help
How can we help?
Answers to what hosts ask most, and the guides for everything else. Can’t find yours? Ask us, or write to hello@letsparty.rsvp.
Getting started
How do I sign in?
Go to letsparty.rsvp/host and enter your email. We email you a 6-digit code (no password); type it on the same page. On iPhone, a link opened from the Gmail app signs in Gmail’s own browser, so the code is the surer way.
How do I plan a party?
On Parties, tap Plan a party. Answer what you’re celebrating, when, where, the look and the words, with the real invite previewing as you go. It’s saved as a draft the whole time; nobody sees it until you send.
Can I change how the invite opens?
Yes. In the planner’s look step or under Edit details, How it opens shows every opening (envelopes, gift boxes, tickets, a cake to blow out and more) playing on your own invite. Match the design keeps the envelope in your design’s colors.
Can someone plan with me?
Yes. In Settings → Groups, open your group and add them by email: they share the address book and plan its parties with you. To help with one party only, add them as a co-host on that party’s page. Their access ends two weeks after the party.
Your address book
How do I import my contacts?
On iPhone, open the Contacts app (not the Phone tab), tap Lists at the top left, touch and hold All Contacts, then Export, and save the file. In letsparty, open Address book → Import and choose that file. You can also paste rows from a spreadsheet. Anyone already in the book (same phone or email) is skipped.
Why is everyone in their own household?
A contacts export has one card per person. In the address book, tap Select to combine, tick a couple or family, and combine them: they’ll get one invite together, which counts once toward your plan. Pick who in the household gets the text.
What are lists?
Labels like Cousins, Book club or Neighbors. In the guest picker, Add a list ticks everyone on it at once.
Sending
How do the texts go out?
From your own phone. On iPhone, add the “Send party invites” Shortcut once (the party page offers it: two taps); then the party page’s Send texts from this iPhone button sends them all. On any phone, the Text button next to each guest opens your messages with the invite written. Email sends from letsparty with your name on it.
Can I send myself a test first?
Yes: Email me a test on the party page sends you a marked test copy, even on a draft. Preview invite shows exactly what guests see.
Can the invitations be in Spanish?
Yes. In Edit details, set Language guests see to Español, or set one household’s Invites in to Español in the address book. The envelope, the RSVP, the texts and the emails come in Spanish. For your own words, add a Spanish version under More → Your words in Spanish on the party page (the AI can draft it for you to check). Every guest can switch from the Aa button by their name on the invite.
Someone’s email bounced. Now what?
The guest list flags them and we stop emailing that address. Text them instead, or fix their email in the address book.
A guest asked for no more emails. Now what?
Every email to guests ends with a “Stop these emails” link, and carries an unsubscribe their mail app can show. If they use either, we stop emailing that household and tell you, so you can text them their link instead. They can turn email back on from the same link.
RSVPs and the day
How do I change something after sending?
Edit details, then Send an update: to everyone, the people coming or maybe, those who said yes, or whoever hasn’t answered, now or on a day you pick. Their invite links always show the latest.
Can guests change their answer?
Yes. Their personal link works until the party, and the newest answer is the one that counts.
The venue holds 40. What happens at 41?
Set “Most people who can come” in Edit details. Past it, a yes joins the waitlist and you let people in from the guest list as spots open.
What do I give the restaurant?
Make a caterer link on the party page. It shows the live headcount and meal answers, without names or a login. Or print the headcount sheet.
Guest extras and after the party
How do I turn on selfies, questions or the guest wall?
Open Edit details and find Guests together. Tick Ask for a selfie with the RSVP, Guests can ask you a question, or A guest wall. Each is off until you turn it on, and you can turn it off again anytime.
How does the photo wall work?
Tick A photo wall under Guests together. Guests add photos from their invite, or from the table sign: on the party page, Print the table sign puts a QR code on paper. Slideshow for the TV plays them as they arrive, and Manage photos lets you hide any.
Can I make a seating chart?
Yes. On the party page, More → Seating chart: add your tables, pick a table for each household (anyone can sit apart, like at a kids’ table), and print the chart and an A-to-Z list for the door. Show guests their table puts it on each guest’s invite.
Can I check people in at the door?
Yes. Check-in on the party page is a list made for your phone: tap Here as each household arrives, and count walk-ins. A co-host can check people in from their own phone at the same time.
How do I thank everyone afterward?
On the party page after the party, Send a thank-you writes to everyone who came (or just who checked in at the door). Asked for wishes with the RSVP? Open them from the party page and print them as a keepsake.
Can I reuse a party for next year?
Yes. On the party page, Copy party makes a new draft with the same details and guest list for you to change.
Plans and what’s coming
What does it cost?
Free for up to 15 invites (a couple or a family shares one). After that, $29 a party for everything, $99 a year for every party you host (the Host Pass), or $199 for your whole wedding (the Wedding plan). You pay when you send. Launch prices are being finalized.
What are the AI helpers?
RSVPs read from a screenshot of the group chat, answers to guests’ questions from your party details, invite wording written from a few notes (Write it for me), and a check on uploaded photos. You check everything before it counts, and anything the details don’t answer goes to you. See the Helpers guide.
