5 Sign Up Features to Help Plan Your Family Reunion

Planning a family reunion can be an exciting yet daunting task. From coordinating schedules and locations to ensuring everyone's needs are met, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But with smart tools like online sign ups, the process can be streamlined and stress-free.  

Enter SignUpGenius – a powerful solution designed to simplify event planning and coordination that’s perfect for your next family reunion. We'll explore five essential features of SignUpGenius to help you plan a special reunion that connects generations of your family.

1. Manage RSVPs all in one place

When your family reunion is on the calendar, you’ll want to track RSVP’s while coordinating who’s bringing dishes and other essentials for meals. But you don’t want to spend hours on the phone or scrolling through email replies to track down information.  

When creating your sign up, choose the RSVP format to track your guests and what meal they’re bringing, along with any other information you want to gather. Easily email or text invites right from your SignUpGenius account. You’ll have an easy way to manage your event, and attendees can RSVP and sign up to bring dishes in just a few clicks.  

SignUpGenius also offers automated confirmation and reminder messages for your event. Get the peace of mind that guests will have all the info they need about the reunion waiting in their inbox. You’ll also appreciate spending less time confirming event information and tracking down participant details. 

2. Get all the information you need with custom questions

One of the most challenging parts of organizing a family reunion is gathering and organizing essential information from attendees. Your online sign up includes the option to add questions for participants to answer, whether it's collecting details about food allergies, dietary restrictions, t-shirt sizes, or special accommodations. 

With custom questions, you can get the information you need in one place and ensure that everyone's needs are taken care of. When you’re ready to use the info, quickly build a report in your SignUpGenius account or download the report into a spreadsheet. You can even archive sign ups and store the information for next year’s event. 

Sign ups make gathering this information simple, helping you plan a memorable and inclusive experience for all. 

3. Add multiple admins to plan collaboratively

Planning a family reunion often requires teamwork and collaboration among multiple family members. SignUpGenius makes it easy to share planning responsibilities with our multiple administrators tool. Grant access to specific people, allowing them to create and manage sign ups, send messages, and update event details. 

When multiple attendees can access your sign ups, it’s easy to get the information you need quickly without having to rely on one sign up creator for everything. Planning your family reunion becomes a collaborative and cohesive effort when you work as a team!  

4. Customize messages with all the info attendees need

With effective communication, your family reunion can run from start to finish without a hitch. SignUpGenius offers customizable confirmation and reminder messages to keep attendees informed and engaged.   

SignUpGenius will automatically send a simple confirmation and reminder message to participants. But you may want to add even more details to make sure attendees get the info they need. This could include arrival or departure details, lodging information, menus anad more. Upgrade to a premium plan to customize the text and design of your confirmation and reminder messages.  

By using personalized confirmations and automated reminders, you can improve attendee engagement, minimize no-shows, and ensure a smooth and well-attended event. 

5. Remove distractions with ad-free sign ups
