Quick answer

How to invite guests to a Friendsgiving

Send Friendsgiving invitations three to four weeks ahead, since many friends travel for Thanksgiving itself. Include the date, start time, address, whether it is a potluck and what each guest should bring, plus a note about dietary needs. Ask for replies one to two weeks before so you can sort out dishes and seating. Let guests reply from one link, and send a short reminder a few days out.

What a Friendsgiving page does for you

Friendsgiving is usually a potluck, so the host needs two lists: who is coming and what lands on the table. Send one link or QR code to the group chat, and each friend replies yes, no or maybe, adds a plus-one in their party size, and can change the answer if plans shift. A guest note gives room for "I'm bringing mac and cheese" or a late arrival. You get an email on each reply and a live guest list on your dashboard, and you can export it to CSV for the shopping run. Put the address, start time, parking and what to bring in detail rows, add Add to Calendar and map links, and dress the page in a harvest layout and warm palette.

Friendsgiving RSVP questions

What do you bring to a Friendsgiving?

Most Friendsgivings are potlucks, so each guest brings a dish to share: a side, a dessert, bread, drinks or ice. The host usually makes the turkey or main course. Ask the host what is still needed rather than guessing, so the table does not end up with four pies and no vegetables. Bringing a container for leftovers or a bottle for the host is a kind extra.

When should you have Friendsgiving?

Friendsgiving is often held the weekend before Thanksgiving, or the Friday or Saturday after, so guests can still travel to family. Some groups host it the night before Thanksgiving for friends who stay in town. Pick the date after asking a few key guests about their travel, and send the invitation three to four weeks ahead.
