A party invitation website, with RSVP
Answer a few questions about the party and get one page with the date, the place, the plan and a reply link. Add a sign-up list so guests pick what to bring, and see everyone who’s coming in one list.
Free to make and publish. Guests never need an account.
An example invitation
Jess and Omar’s housewarming in Columbus, with a barbecue in the new garden. Scroll inside each phone.
What goes on your party invitation
- The when and the where
- The date, the start and end time, the address with a map link, the dress code and where to park. Guests add it to their calendar in one tap.
- A sign-up list for who brings what
- List the things you need (salads, chairs, a cake) with how many of each. Guests who are coming claim them from the reply form, and you see who took what.
- Replies in one list
- Every reply lands in your guest list the moment it is sent, and still counts once if a guest presses Send twice. You get an email for each one, and can export the list to a spreadsheet.
- One link, a QR code, or email
- Send the link in a group chat, print its QR code on a card, or email it to the guests on your list. Pick your own address, like thedetails.page/e/maya-grad.
- Worded for the occasion
- Pick a Christmas party, Friendsgiving, New Year’s Eve, a housewarming or a dinner party, and the page is worded for it. Change any line you like.
- Who’s coming and guests’ notes
- Show guests who has said yes (first names and an initial) and let them leave a note for everyone, or keep both off. You choose, per site.
How it works
Name the party
What it is, who is hosting and what kind of party. Then the date, the time and the address.
Add the plan and the list
A line or two on what will happen, the dress code, and a sign-up list if you want guests to bring food.
Send one link
Share it in the group chat or send each guest their own. Replies and claimed dishes come into one list.
What a party invitation should say
Guests give a party invitation about ten seconds. In that time they want the day, the time, the place and whether to bring anything.
Say when it ends, too
An end time helps people with babysitters and early starts. For an open house, say so: “Drop in any time from 2 to 6.”
Be clear about plus-ones and children
“Partners welcome” or “Adults only” on the page saves a dozen messages. Turn plus-ones off and each guest replies only for themselves.
Pick a reply-by date that suits you
For a party at home, a week before is plenty. For a venue with a set menu, go by the day the venue needs final numbers.
Ask one useful question
The reply form asks about food allergies. Add your own if you need it, such as “Staying for dinner?” or “Need a lift from the station?”

Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. Making and publishing your party invitation, the reply form and the guest list are free, with no limit on guests. An optional site pass adds extras such as your own colours, a photo wall for guests and automatic reply reminders, for one payment per site.
Do guests need an app or an account?
No. They open the link in any browser, on any phone, and reply in under a minute.
Can guests sign up to bring food?
Yes. Start the site with a potluck or Thanksgiving list, or add your own items later. Guests who are coming pick a dish or a job when they reply, and each item shows how many are still needed.
Can I see who’s coming?
Yes. Every reply lands in your guest list with how many people are coming and any allergies. You can also show guests a short list of who’s coming, by first name and initial.
Can a co-host edit it too?
Yes. Add co-hosts by their email address and they manage the site with you, from their own account. Two people can edit at the same time without undoing each other’s changes.
Can I change the details after I send the link?
Yes. Edit the page and publish again; the link stays the same, so everyone sees the latest details. You can also email an update to everyone on your list.
Will strangers find it?
No. Event sites are hidden from search engines, so only people you send the link to can open it. You can also add a password.
