Planning your guest RSVP strategy with Thebigdays? Understanding the different RSVP link types will help you choose the best method for collecting responses — based on how much guest information you already have and how you plan to invite them.
Types of RSVP Links
| Type | Description | Best For |
| Quick Share | General RSVP link without any guest info pre-filled | Couples who don’t have a guest list yet |
| Pre-Defined | Smart RSVP links with pre-filled guest category (e.g., Bride’s side, etc) | Semi-organized guest list by category |
| Private Link | Unique RSVP link for each guest with full profile integration | Full guest list uploaded — best RSVP experience |
How to Choose the Right Link Type
| Scenario | Recommended Link Type |
| You haven’t created a guest list yet | Quick Share — Simple and fast to share on social media or messages. |
| You want some organization (e.g. RSVP by table or category) but not full tracking | Pre-Defined — Good for segmenting by group. |
| You have a full guest list with mobile numbers and want to send direct invites | Private Link — Best guest experience, full RSVP tracking, works with WhatsApp Blast to save time. |
Why Use Private Links?
- Auto-fills guest info → reduces friction and typos
- Each RSVP reply updates your dashboard in real time
- Enables follow-up for guests who haven’t responded
- Required for WhatsApp Blast feature
If you’re aiming for a professional, streamlined experience, especially for events with more than 50 guests — Private Links are highly recommended.
