There are a few ways to collect guest or plus one information during registration.

✅ For Simple Registration or RSVP Registration

  1. Go to your Event Dashboard.

  2. Click Setup > Registration.

  3. Scroll down and check the box: "My attendees may bring guests."

  4. Set the default number of guests each invitee can bring (this applies event-wide).
    ​


    ​

📝 Tip: Want to allow a different number of guests per person?

With RSVP Registration or when your Registration Access Control is set to My Attendees Must Be on My List, you can specify the number of guests per invitee.

✅ RSVP Registration to Set Guest Limit Based on Attendee

Step by Step Instructions on how to override the default setting on a per-invitee basis:

Step 1: Go to Setup > Registration > Setup tab and set the Default Number of Guests field to the default number of guests someone can bring! This number applies globally, which is why we suggest setting it to the default number.
​


​

Step 2: Go to the Attendee List and upload your invitees' emails.
​


​

Step 3: Go to the Attendee List: Go to Manage, then click on the attendee's name. The attendee drawer will appear. Navigate to the Registration tab, scroll down to the Number of guests allowed, and adjust it; it will update automatically.
​

This updates the number of guests that a specific invitee can bring to the event!

Please note: Currently, the "Bring Guest Question" comes up when that feature is turned on even when guests are set to 0.

Feature Updates: We are planning to support uploading the number of guests with the invitation list in the future.


✅ With Ticketed or Multi-Event Registration

Ensure someone is able to purchase multiple tickets or register for multiple sub-events by going to the Tickets / Sub-Events tab.

Then, click on Show Advanced Options and confirm the following settings:

  • Maximum is set to 2 or higher.

  • Minimum is set to 0.

  • Interval is set to 1.
