Event Groups: The group chat app designed to get you out of the chat
Dec 11, 2024
Let’s face it: planning an event often means endless back-and-forth messages, missed details, and a lot of “wait, what’s the plan again?” moments. At GroupMe, we believe group chats should make getting together easier, not harder. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Event Groups—the ultimate event coordination app to help your crew stay connected and organized while planning your next outing.
What Are Event Groups?
With Event Groups, you can create an event outside your group chats and invite anyone you want. The best part - every event you create comes with its own dedicated group chat. It’s not just another thread; it’s a fully functional GroupMe chat packed with everything you need for planning. Think of it as your one-stop hub for event management - RSVPs, pinned messages, Polls, maps, and photo sharing before, during, and after the party.
Why You’ll Love Event Groups
Everything in One Place: Keep your event details, group discussions, RSVPs, and updates together in one space. No more switching between apps or losing important information.
Seamless Online Invitations and RSVP Tracking: Send invites to your GroupMe contacts or via SMS for those who don’t have the app. Everyone stays in the loop, making this the best event planning tool for small businesses, communities, weddings, birthdays or volunteering, etc.
Polls for Easy Coordination: Need help choosing the best time or location? Use polls to make group decisions quickly and effortlessly.
Map Integrations for Easy Navigation: Add locations directly to the event and let built-in maps guide your guests to the right spot. Perfect for meetups, parties, and community events.
Photo Sharing for Post-Event Fun: Relive the memories by sharing photos and videos directly in the Event Group. It’s a digital scrapbook for your get-togethers.
SMS Messaging for Non-GroupMe Users: Inviting someone without the app? No problem! They can still participate via SMS, so no one’s left out.
