Confirmation texting questions
How do I RSVP to a confirmation by text?
Reply to the invitation text by the RSVP date. Start with yes or no, say who's coming, and add anything the host asked for, like allergies. If the invite includes an RSVP link, you can tap that instead. You don't need an app.
When should I follow up on confirmation RSVPs?
2 weeks before: Nudge non-responders and give the restaurant a count.
Can my teen's friends get the invite too?
Yes. Add their numbers like anyone else's. Each friend gets their own text and answers on your RSVP link, with no app and no group chat.
How do I send the sponsor separate details?
Put the sponsor in their own group and text them the rehearsal, the call time and what to bring, so the rest of the guest list doesn't see it.
What if the service runs long?
Confirmation Masses with a bishop often run long. Text everyone a quick update with the new dinner time, and replies come back to your inbox.
Can I send a livestream link to family who can't come?
Yes. Put the parish livestream link in a text, or add it as a button on your RSVP page so it's there when they need it.
Do my guests need to download an app?
No. Guests get a normal text message on the phone they already use and reply the same way. Nothing to install and no account to create.
Can guests see each other's replies?
No. Each guest gets their own text, not a group chat, so their number and replies stay private. Replies come back to your Text My Event inbox, where you and your co-hosts can answer.
Can a co-host help manage the event?
Yes. Invite co-hosts to your event and they share the same guest list, scheduled texts, and replies inbox.
How much does it cost?
Your first event includes 10 free texts to try it on your own phone. To text guests you pay once per event, with no subscription: Lite $19 for 50 texts, Starter $57 for 500 texts, Plus $87 for 1,200 texts, Premium $137 for 2,000 texts. If you need more texts later, moving to a bigger plan costs only the difference.
Which countries are supported?
Text My Event sends to US and Canadian (+1) mobile numbers, in English.
How long does my event stay active?
Your texts belong to that event and stay available until 60 days after it ends. Guest photos and videos stay up for the same window.
What happens if a guest replies STOP?
They're opted out right away and skipped on future sends, so you never have to track it. They can reply START to resume.
