How do wedding planners collect RSVPs on WhatsApp for a client's wedding?

Send each family its own invitation link on WhatsApp. The family taps it, sees only the functions they are invited to and replies for each one, with meals and plus-ones. On ShaadiMode the replies fill the guest list by themselves; on Signature guests can also reply inside the WhatsApp chat, with reminders sent from our number.

A WhatsApp RSVP is a reply to a wedding invitation sent through a link or a message on WhatsApp, recorded for each function instead of typed into a chat.

Step by step

WhatsApp RSVPs, step by step

  1. Add the families and their functions. Each family is invited to the functions you pick.
  2. Send the links. One tap per family from your own WhatsApp, or to every family by name from our WhatsApp number.
  3. Families reply per function. Who is coming to which function, meals and plus-ones.
  4. Remind the rest. On Signature, reminders go out from our number and guests reply inside WhatsApp.

On ShaadiMode

How ShaadiMode helps with WhatsApp RSVPs

  • Replies straight into the list. No copying names from chats into a sheet.
  • Scheduled for the muhurat. On Signature, messages can go out at a set time, one for each group.
  • Questions answered for you. On Signature, the Guest Concierge answers guests on WhatsApp from the wedding's own details and hands you what it does not know.

Avoid

Common mistakes with WhatsApp RSVPs

  • A Google Form link: elders do not fill it in.
  • One broadcast to everyone: families reply in the chat, not the form.
  • No reminder: many families never reply.
