Private Mass Texting for Event Hosts

Send party invites, venue changes, and day-of reminders to your entire guest list in under 60 seconds. No group chat notification spam. No event app drama. No exposed phone numbers.

Perfect for weddings, birthday parties, baby showers, reunions, and casual get-togethers.

Event invites are messy

You're organizing a birthday party, hosting a baby shower, or planning a college reunion. You need to invite 30-50 people and keep everyone updated. But your options all create unnecessary problems:

  • Group texts can feel crowded and uncomfortable. "Can't wait!" "Is it BYOB?" "Can I bring my kids?" "What's the address again?" Everyone's phone buzzes constantly. People mute the chat and miss important updates about parking or venue changes.
  • Event apps expose contact info and create social pressure. Evite, Partiful, and Luma let anyone see the full guest list and who's attending. Guests can comment publicly. People feel obligated to RSVP publicly even if they're unsure. Notification spam from guest comments annoys everyone.
  • Facebook Events get ignored. Half your guests don't check Facebook regularly. The other half never look at event pages. No one actually reads the parking details you carefully typed.
  • Email invites feel impersonal and get buried. Your invite sits in spam folders or gets lost among 200 other emails. Response rates are terrible.

You just want to send personal invites and important updates without creating notification chaos or exposing everyone's contact info.

One invite for every guest

BCC Text lets you send the same message to your entire guest list privately. Each person receives an individual text from your real phone number. They can reply directly to you with questions or RSVPs, but they never see who else is invited.

How it works

+
Step 1

Create your guest list once

Add contacts manually or import from a spreadsheet. Save as "Wedding Guests," "40th Birthday Party," or "College Reunion."

Step 2

Write your invite once

Type your party details, event updates, or RSVP requests. Add [First Name] if you want to personalize.

Step 3

Send with one tap

Your entire guest list receives individual invites in under 60 seconds. They text you back privately to RSVP or ask questions.

How event hosts use BCC Text

Initial Party Invites

Hi [First Name]! Throwing a birthday party for [Name] on Saturday, March 15th at 7pm. My place, casual dress, BYOB. Let me know if you can make it!

RSVP Follow-Ups

Hey! Just checking in about Saturday's party. Need a headcount for food. Can you make it? No worries if not!

Day-of Reminders

Party starts in 2 hours! The address is 123 Oak Street. Street parking available, or use the lot behind CVS. See you soon!

Venue Changes

Update: Moving the party indoors due to weather. Same time (7pm), same address, just come to the front door instead of the backyard gate.

Thank You Messages

Thanks so much for coming to the party! I had a blast seeing everyone. Let's do it again soon!

Logistics Updates

Quick note: Street parking is tight tonight. Park in the public lot on Main St (2 blocks away, free after 6pm) and walk over. See you at 7!

Why private mass texting gets results

1

No public RSVPs

Guests reply privately to you. No one feels pressure to attend because they saw everyone else RSVPing publicly. No awkwardness about declining.

2

No guest list exposure

Your college friends don't see your work friends' phone numbers. Your family members don't see your college roommates' contact info. Privacy stays intact.

3

No app downloads required

Guests don't need to create Evite accounts, download Partiful, or join yet another platform. They just get a text.

4

Actually gets read

98% of texts are read within 3 minutes. Your parking update or venue change actually reaches people before they're already driving there.

5

Personal touch

Each invite feels like a personal message from you, not a mass notification. Add [First Name] to make it even more personal.

6

One-time cost

$45 lifetime vs creating new Facebook Events and dealing with low engagement, or paying for event app premium features.

Frequently asked questions from event organizers

Can I track RSVPs?

You'll receive replies as individual texts. Keep a note or spreadsheet to track who's coming. No automated RSVP dashboard, but you get personal responses.

What about inviting people I don't have numbers for?

You'll need phone numbers to text them. Ask mutual friends or send a quick message: "Hey! Getting phone numbers for party invites. What's the best number to reach you?"

Can I send event details documents or maps?

Include short links in your text. Example: "Details here: [Google Maps link]" or "Event info: [shortened link to Google Doc]"

What if someone asks to bring a guest?

They'll text you privately, and you can respond directly. No awkward public back-and-forth in a group chat where everyone sees.

How do I handle last-minute cancellations?

Send a quick text to everyone: "Unfortunately I need to postpone Saturday's party. Will send a new date soon. Sorry for the short notice!" Everyone gets the update instantly.

Can I use this for large events?

Works best for up to 50 guests at a time but you can send in batches by creating groups.

Real scenarios from event hosts who use this

Birthday party host

"I used to create Facebook Events and only 15 people would respond. I never knew how much food to buy. Now I text everyone personally, and I get actual RSVPs within an hour. So much better than hoping people check Facebook."

Baby shower organizer

"I needed to coordinate a surprise baby shower without creating a group chat that the mom-to-be might see. I texted everyone privately with details and strict 'don't post on social media' instructions. Worked perfectly."

College reunion planner

"I didn't want to expose everyone's phone numbers to the entire group. Some people moved on from those friendships and didn't want their info shared. Private texts let everyone RSVP without seeing the full guest list."

Wedding day coordinator

"Used this for day-of logistics with the bridal party. Sent hair appointment reminders, photo timeline, and 'where to meet' updates. Way better than a chaotic group chat where everyone's asking questions over each other."

Casual dinner host

"I throw dinner parties every month. Used to text everyone individually and it took 20 minutes. Now I send one message to my saved 'Dinner Crew' group in 60 seconds. Game changer."
