Example dates to offer
- First weekend of May
- Second weekend of May
- Last weekend of May
Locking in the weekend
- Ask the bride first. Start with the people she can't do it without, and only offer weekends that work for them.
- Leave enough space before the wedding, so nobody has to fit two big trips into the same few weeks.
- Be open about the budget when you share the link. A date only works for someone who can also afford the trip.
- Treat Maybe as a real answer. Follow up with those people before you book anything non-refundable.
How it works
- Add your event and the dates that could work.
- Email your group, or share one link by text or group chat.
- Everyone taps Yes, Maybe or No for each date, with no account.
- See the best date, choose it, and let everyone know.
Questions
How many weekends should I offer?
Two to four. Fewer gets a clearer answer, especially for a group with busy schedules.
Can I offer whole weekends?
Yes. Use the Friday or Saturday of each weekend as the date, and leave the time blank.
Can I keep the poll private?
Only people with the link can see it, and search engines are asked not to list polls.
