Why guests go quiet and what works: a one-tap reply, a real deadline with a reason, gentle reminders, and personal nudges for the few who have not replied.

For baby showers
A shower that plans itself.
Collect replies, food notes and a plan for who brings what on one gentle page. Guests reply in seconds, with no account to make.
Free to host. No guest accounts.
You’re invited to
Good people. Open door.
Come and celebrate what is on its way.
What you get, in plain terms.
Easy replies
Guests answer yes, maybe or no, say how many are coming and leave a note, all from the link.
Food and allergy notes
Ask about dietary needs and see a headcount by need before you order or bake.
Potluck sign-ups
List what you need and let guests claim items, so the table is full and nothing doubles up.
A gift list
List the gifts you would like, each with a shop link. Guests mark what they are buying so nothing doubles up. JoinMe never handles money.
Co-hosts
Share the work with a friend or family member: co-hosts use the same manage link.
Photos to keep
Open a shared album afterwards so everyone’s pictures end up in one place.
Create, share, track.
Create
Choose the Garden suite or another theme, add the date and place, and say who is hosting.
Share
Send the link in a group message or by email. Guests reply with no account.
Track
Follow replies, food notes and potluck claims on your manage page, and message guests if plans change.
Good questions.
Anything else? Write to us.
Do guests need an account to RSVP?
No. Guests open the invite link and reply with no account and no app. Only the host needs a free JoinMe account to create the invite.
Can I add a gift registry?
Yes. Add gifts with links to any shop or registry. Guests mark what they are buying, and others see that it is taken. JoinMe does not take payments.
Can I ask guests to bring food?
Yes. Add potluck items and guests claim what they will bring. Everyone can see what is still needed.
Can friends and family host together?
Yes. Co-hosts open the same private manage link, so you can both see replies and send updates.
Does it cost anything?
No. JoinMe is free for hosts and guests, with no paid tier. It does not sell tickets or take payments.
