Questions worth asking

What’s your name?
Short textRequired
So you know who’s replied, and can put the right name on the list.
Can you make it?
Multiple choiceRequired
The one question that matters. Three clear answers count up in a moment.
Tell us a little more
Long textOptional
Shown only to people who aren’t sure yet, so you can hear what’s holding them back.
How many of you will there be?
NumberOptional
A number adds up neatly when you’re counting chairs.
Anything we should know about food?
Long textOptional
Allergies and preferences are easier to plan around when you hear about them early.
Where should we send the details?
EmailOptional
Only if you’ll follow up. Otherwise, one less thing to ask.

How the form reads

Picture a guest opening your invitation on their phone. They give their name, then answer the one question that matters: can they make it? Yes and No carry straight on, and the practical questions are optional, so anyone who can’t come can skip them. Not sure yet opens a box where they can tell you what’s holding them back.

You get an honest count, and a reason for every maybe. Someone waiting to hear the time might say yes once you tell them. It’s a much kinder way to plan than a long thread of messages, and everything ends up in one table.

Send the link with a date to reply by, and send one friendly reminder yourself, close to the day. Most people don’t mean to be slow. They just forget, and a kind reminder is usually all it takes.

A follow-up that helps

Show “Tell us a little more” when “Can you make it?” is “Not sure yet”. People who already know go straight on to the next question.

Open the form yourself before you share it. Pick Not sure yet and check the box appears, then pick Yes and check it disappears. If a rule ever points at a question you’ve since deleted, the form won’t publish until you fix it.

Keep it kind

Tell people how long they have to reply, in words, on the form. A gentle deadline works better than a chase.
Ask about food kindly and only once. Say it’s so nobody goes hungry.
