I want to send save the date information and collect interest. Can I do that with your site?

Yes! EventCreate gives you flexible options to send a "Save the Date" and gather early interest from guests before collecting registrations!

You have a couple of options within EventCreate if you're interested in sending save the date information and pre-registering interested guests.

✅ Option 1: Create a Website for Info Only (Hide the Registration Button)

If you’re not ready to accept registrations just yet, you can still create a website to share event details and collect interest in a low-pressure way.

  1. Create your event site

    • Set up a new event and customize your event page with details, images, and a Save the Date message

    • Go to Setup > Registration > Advanced

    • Scroll to Enable/Disable Registration

    • Uncheck “Registration is Active”

    • Click Update

    This removes the “Register” button from your site and navigation, so guests can view your page without signing up yet.

  2. Optional: Add a contact form or email link if you’d still like to collect early interest or questions

When you're ready to open registration, just add a registration button to your site and make sure to check “Registration is Active" (under Setup > Registration > Advanced)


📝 Option 2: Use One Website — Switch to Ticketed Later

Want to collect early RSVPs and later sell tickets on the same page?

  1. Start with Simple Registration

    • Collect interest via a basic RSVP form

  2. Switch to Ticketed Registration when ready

    • Go to Setup > Registration > Type, change to Ticketed

  3. Allow repeat registrations

    • Go to Setup > Registration > Advanced

    • Uncheck “My attendees cannot register more than once”

    • This ensures pre-registered guests can register again to purchase tickets


🔁 Option 3: Use Two Separate Websites

Prefer to keep your interest list and paid registration separate?

  1. Create Website #1 — Use Simple Registration to collect early RSVPs

  2. Duplicate your event when tickets are ready and set up Website #2 with Ticketed Registration

💡 Note: You’ll need the Pro plan or higher to have multiple events live at the same time. See plan details →
