One step, not two
Everything you ask arrives as a single step in the RSVP, just after the song step. Polls and your own questions used to be two separate screens; now guests answer them all in one go and move on.
Ask, and it's answered
Custom RSVP questions, answered with the reply.
Add custom RSVP questions for the things you need to know — a shuttle seat, a plus-one's name, or a choice you'd like the room to vote on. Guests pick one answer, pick several, or write a reply, with one set of answers per RSVP party. Questions and polls live together in Ask, where you read the replies and export non-anonymous answers with your guest spreadsheet.
- Pick one, pick several, or write
- Polls and questions, one list
- Answers tally themselves
Written by you
Ask exactly what you need to know.
Write a question in your own words and choose how guests answer: pick-one for a clean either/or, pick-several when more than one answer is fine, or a free-text box for anything at all. A poll is simply a pick-one question you'd like the room to weigh in on — same list, same step. Mark the ones you truly need as required, leave the rest optional, and turn any question off without losing a single answer.
- Pick one, pick several, or write an answer
- Polls and private questions in one list
- Mark each question required or optional
- Turn a question off — its answers stay saved
Right where guests already are
Answered inside the RSVP, not a separate form.
Changes welcome
Guests can reopen their RSVP and update an answer while the event is live, and what you see updates to match — no re-asking, no chasing.
Required means required
A required question gently blocks the guest from finishing until it's answered, with a clear little hint — optional ones stay skippable.
You already know the one thing you keep having to ask everyone. Ask it once, on the RSVP, and let the answers come to you.
Answers that add themselves up
Read every reply at a glance.
As guests answer, the Ask tab keeps a running tally for each pick-one and pick-several question and lists every free-text reply by name — polls and questions in one merged view, rather than two places to check. It refreshes by itself while you watch, and a question you set to anonymous keeps the names off the page. Your guest spreadsheet gains a column for each question, so the answers are ready wherever you need them.
- One results view for everything you asked
- A live tally per choice question
- Free-text answers listed by guest
- A column per question in your guest spreadsheet
- Anonymous questions keep names off the page

Common questions
Good to know.
What kinds of questions can I ask?
Three kinds: pick-one for a single choice, pick-several when guests can choose more than one, and a free-text box for open answers. Each can be marked required or optional, and you can have up to twenty — though we'll gently ask "sure?" past three live at once, because an RSVP shouldn't feel like a survey.
Where do guests answer?
Right inside the RSVP, as one step just after the song step. There's nothing separate to send, and everything you've asked — polls included — is answered in that single step.
What happened to the separate Polls section?
It merged into Ask. Polls and your own questions are one list now, answered by guests in one step instead of two, with one results view. Your existing polls and every vote already cast moved across, and old links still land in the right place.
Does each guest answer separately, or one per party?
It's one set of answers per party: the person replying answers on behalf of everyone in their RSVP. There isn't a separate answer for each named plus-one.
Can guests change their answer later?
Yes. Guests can reopen their RSVP from the manage link, tap Change on the questions, and update any answer. Your tallies and replies follow.
Where do the answers end up?
In your Ask tab: a tally for each choice question and every free-text reply listed by guest (or marked anonymous, if you chose that). They also ride your guest list download, CSV or Excel, one column per question — an anonymous question keeps its column but leaves the cells blank.
What happens if I turn a question off?
It simply stops showing to guests — its answers stay saved, and you can turn it back on any time. Deleting a question removes the question and every answer to it, so hide it if you want to keep the replies.
