Managing a guest departure is crucial, especially if names have already been drawn. This guide walks you through what to do if a guest leaves after the draw, ensuring that you can easily reassign matches or opt not to, depending on your preference.
Tip: You will receive an email any time a guest leaves your event.
A Guest Leaves Before Names Are Drawn
-A guest leaving before names are drawn has no effect on matches.
A Guest Leaves After Names Are Drawn (but not notified)
-A guest leaving after names are drawn affects two other guests:
*The person they were buying a gift for.
*The person who was buying a gift for them.
For example, if Bob buys for Sally, and Sally buys for Kevin, removing Sally will leave Bob and Kevin without matches.
