RSVP Changes After the Deadline

Understand which late attendance changes apply immediately and which need the organiser to review.

Reductions can change the final count

A cancellation or a smaller confirmed group can apply after the deadline. The organiser should still check meal commitments and the seating plan, because reducing attendance does not automatically renegotiate a supplier invoice.

Additional guests need review

A late first acceptance or an increase in attendees is submitted for approval. The organiser reviews requests in Guests before updating the plan; a request is not a confirmed additional seat.

Worked example · illustrative details

Three attendees become four

A household already confirmed for three requests a fourth person after the deadline. The organiser checks capacity and catering before approving. If the household reduces to two instead, that reduction can apply without the extra-place approval step.

Your next steps
