How do I create guest groups?

Organize your guests into groups like "College Friends" or "Work Colleagues" for easier management and filtering.

Plan requirement: Standard or Pro plan

Short answer: Create groups in the Guests section, then assign guests to groups when adding or editing them.

What are groups?

Groups help you organize guests by:
- How you know them (family, friends, coworkers)
- Their relationship to you (bride's side, groom's side)
- Which events they're invited to
- Any other category that helps you manage your list

Creating a new group

  1. Go to Guests > Groups

  2. Click Add group

  3. Enter a group name

  4. Choose a color for the group

  5. Click Save group

Adding guests to groups

When adding a new guest:
1. Click Add guest
2. Fill in their details
3. Select their group
4. Click Save

For existing guests:
1. Find the guest in your list
2. Click to edit their details
3. Assign them to groups
4. Click Save

Example groups

  • Bride's family

  • Groom's family

  • College friends

  • Work friends

  • Neighbors

  • Out-of-town guests

  • A-list / B-list

Using groups

Once created, you can:
- Filter your guest list by group
- Send emails to specific groups
- View attendance by group
- Export guests by group
- Show or hide sections and pages based on group membership

Controlling visibility with groups

You can make sections or pages visible only to guests in a specific group:

  1. Edit the section or go to page settings

  2. Click Make private

  3. Choose Display to or Hide from

  4. Select Guests in a group

  5. Select the group from the dropdown

  6. Click Save changes

This is great for sharing wedding party info, family-only details, or VIP content with specific groups of guests.

Tips

  • Each guest can belong to one group at a time

  • Create groups before importing to save time

  • Use groups to manage A-list and B-list invitations

  • Groups can control section and page visibility on your website
