Can I import our guest list from a spreadsheet?

Yes. Import a CSV or Excel file with one row per person. We group people into households for you.

  1. Open Guests and press Import a list.
  2. Not sure of the layout? Press Download template (Excel) or Template as CSV.
  3. Choose your file. It stays on your computer until you press Import.
  4. 1. Where the List Is: pick the tab and the row with your headings. We usually find them for you.
  5. 2. What Each Column Is: match each column to a field, or choose Leave out. Household and First name are needed.
  6. 3. Check It: fix any rows marked to fix, or tick Leave out for them.
  7. Press Import … rows.

Good to know:

  • Files can be .csv or .xlsx. Save .xls or Numbers files as .xlsx or .csv first.
  • Up to 500 rows per import.
  • No Household column? We suggest each person's surname.
  • If anything needs fixing, nothing is imported until it's fixed.
  • A blank cell never wipes what's already saved.
  • To update people, export your guest list, edit it and import it again. The Guest ID column tells us who is who. A list without Guest IDs adds everyone again as new people.
  • We remember your column choices in this browser for next time.
