Added Guest not on the Guest List

Modified on Tue, 16 Apr 2024 at 11:03 AM

There are a few reasons you may not see your added guests on your event guest list. Most of the time, this is because the steps to send the invitation haven't been completed. Another common reason would be that you added the guest already, but saved them with the wrong name, so it just looks like you haven't added them yet.


Below, you will find the steps to troubleshoot both of these scenarios: 


When you exit the Add Guests page without sending, your guests are automatically saved on the pending guest list, but not sent because the final steps haven't been completed.


To send out your invitation to your saved/pending guest list, please follow these steps:


1. Log into your Evite account.

2. Click on your name/photo in the top right corner.

3. Select My Events.

4. Locate your event on the dashboard and click the three dots to the right of the invitation.

5. Select Add Guests.

6. Once on the Add Guests page, you will see your saved guests.

7. Select Send Invitation.



(Please note that if you sent your invitation via shareable link (text, email, social media), guests will not show up on the guest list until after they have Rsvp'd).



To check if you already added the guest to your guest list, you can follow these steps:


  1. Log into your Evite account.
  2. Click on your initials/photo in the top right corner.
  3. Select My Events.
  4. Locate your invitation and select Manage Event.
  5. Scroll down to the guest list and type in the email address or phone number of the guest you are searching for in the search bar.




This will highlight and display the added guest and show you if they are on the guest list. If they are on the list and under the incorrect name, you can use the pencil icon to the right of the email address to edit the name to prevent confusion.
