For guests
How do I change my RSVP?
By Nimanto 1 min read
In short
Open the invitation again, ideally from the same e-mail or link, and tap Change my reply under your recorded answer. Update your answer, the number coming or anything else and tap Update RSVP. The host is told at once.
Plans change, and the host would rather know. Changing your reply takes a moment.
Change it
- 1Open the invitation again. Your personal link, from the invitation or reminder e-mail, is best: it shows your recorded reply straight away. Reminder e-mails also carry a Change your RSVP link that opens the form directly.
- 2Under "Your reply: …", tap Change my reply.
- 3The form reopens filled in with your last answer, the number coming, extra names, days, dietary note, answers, message and any gift promise.
- 4Change what you need and tap Update RSVP.
Your new reply replaces the old one, the host's list updates at once, and the host gets the same alert as for a new reply.
From the shared link
If you replied through a link from a group chat, the page forgets your reply once it is reloaded. Reply again with the same e-mail or phone: Nimanto matches it to your earlier answer and updates it rather than counting you twice.
What changing can mean
- If the host approves each guest, a changed answer or a bigger party goes back to the host to confirm. Keeping the same answer with the same or fewer people stays confirmed.
- If the event has a capacity and you were waitlisted, sending again re-checks whether there is room now.
- A new e-mail or phone typed on the form becomes the one the host uses for updates. Leave it blank to keep what is on file.
- If you promised an amount toward a group gift, the new reply replaces that promise.
When you cannot change it
After the host's deadline, or once they close replies, the page shows your recorded reply with "Replies are closed now." Contact the host directly: replying to any e-mail from the invitation reaches them.
