Setting up events.

With Gather you can add as many separate events to your celebration as you wish.


If you added event details when registering, you’ll be able to see and edit them directly from your dashboard. You can add a new event by clicking ‘View all events’, scrolling to the bottom of the page and clicking ‘Add another event’.

If no events have been added yet, click Add an event to get started.

For each event you can add…

  • Event name, such as Ceremony or Reception.
  • Event date.
  • Start and finish times.
  • Location.

For public venues such as churches or hotels, start typing the name and Gather will present details directly from Google.

For each venue you can display…

  • Venue name.
  • Address, including a map link.
  • Website link.
  • Image; choose from our selection or upload your own.

Alternatively, you can add these details manually.

Next, you can choose whether every guest should be invited to this event.

  • Select Yes, and all guests will automatically be added to the event guest list.
  • Select No, and you can decide who will be invited by assigning guests manually.

Finally, choose whether food and/or drinks will be served at this event.

  • Select Yes, and you’ll have the option to create menus later.
  • We’ll now collect dietary requirements from every guest attending this event.
  • Select No, and we will not collect any dietary requirements for this event.
