From Invitations to Thank Yous: Managing Your Event Lifecycle

Beyond the Event Day

Most planning tools focus on the event itself, but experienced planners know the work extends well before and after. The pre-event phase sets expectations and builds excitement. The post-event phase turns a great experience into lasting memories and valuable feedback. PlanShire manages this entire lifecycle in one place.

Digital Invitations with AI-Styled QR Codes

PlanShire's invitation designer creates beautiful, personalized invitations for each guest. Choose from 12 professionally designed templates, customize colors and copy, and add AI-generated artistic QR codes in styles like floral, balloon, elegant gold, or minimalist. Each QR code links directly to your event page for seamless RSVPs.

Public Event Pages and RSVP

Every event gets a public page at a custom URL where guests can view details, RSVP, add dietary preferences, indicate plus-ones, and download calendar files. Choose from six theme presets to match your event's vibe. The page automatically transforms after your event date to show photos, surveys, and recap content.

Post-Event: Surveys, Recaps, and Thank Yous

After your event, PlanShire helps you close the loop. Send surveys with an emoji-first feedback form to gauge guest satisfaction. The AI generates insights from responses, highlighting what worked and what to improve. Generate a narrative event recap with stats that you can publish to your event page. And send personalized thank-you messages -- the AI drafts unique notes for each guest based on their attendance, gifts, and your personal notes.

The Complete Timeline

From the first save-the-date to the final thank-you note, PlanShire's timeline feature keeps everything on track. Set milestones, assign tasks to collaborators, and get proactive reminders as deadlines approach. The AI even suggests timeline items based on your event type and date.
