Wix Events: Customizing Registration Settings & Messages
Take control of your event registration by deciding where, when, and who can sign up. You can also personalize the messages guests see after registering or when registration is unavailable.
Customizing registration settings for RSVP Events
Choose how guests register for your event—on your site, an external site, or without registration at all. Set a guest limit and decide who can RSVP, whether it’s everyone or only site members. This flexibility is ideal for open events where attendance tracking isn’t essential, such as a public concert.
