What is an RSVP company and what does it do?
An RSVP (guest-management) company runs the entire attendance-confirmation process for your event — a wedding, bar/bat mitzvah, brit, henna or engagement. Instead of phoning every guest individually, the system sends a digital invitation (usually over SMS or WhatsApp), collects replies automatically, and shows you in real time how many confirmed, declined, or haven't answered yet. The single most valuable number such a system gives you is an accurate meal-count projection for your caterer — based on real confirmations rather than guesswork.
Israel has several established and newer RSVP companies. Below is an objective comparison of the main providers as of 2026, to help you choose the right fit for your event.

Provider deep-dive
Vibrate
A modern RSVP system where the entire flow runs on WhatsApp: each guest gets a WhatsApp message with your invitation image and a single confirm button — no app, no download, no external link. The dashboard updates in real time within seconds of every confirmation, with a flexible per-group breakdown you define (bride side / groom side, family / friends, kids / adults), automated reminder rounds sent only to guests who haven't replied, and a built-in meal-count projection for caterers (confirmed headcount × 0.8, the standard Israeli event convention). It supports weddings, bar/bat mitzvah, brit, henna and engagements, including guest lists of 1,000+. Learn more about Vibrate's RSVP system.
Save The Date
One of the most established companies in the field, with tools for guest management, RSVPs and seating arrangements. A good fit for those who want a provider with extensive experience and adjacent production services.
DigiNet
A comprehensive solution covering RSVPs alongside digital invitations and credit-card gift management. Suits couples who want a single platform bundling several services.
My Invite
Popular with couples looking for a simple interface and well-designed digital invitations, with an emphasis on the invitation-design experience.
Navo
A service focused on weddings and guest management, with an emphasis on personal, phone-based support.
Callevent
A relatively veteran company with high activity volume, specializing in automated RSVPs, including automated phone calls.
How to choose an RSVP company
Three key considerations:
1. Messaging channel. In Israel over 90% of guests use WhatsApp daily, and WhatsApp open rates are far higher than SMS or phone calls. A natively WhatsApp-based channel generally yields a higher response rate.
2. Dashboard and real time. Check whether data updates instantly or only in periodic reports, and whether there's a per-group breakdown relevant to your event (bride/groom side, adults/kids).
3. Meal projection and reminders. An accurate meal-count projection saves money on catering, and automated reminder rounds to non-responders raise the final confirmation rate.
Frequently asked questions
Do guests need to download an app?
With WhatsApp-based systems like Vibrate — no. The guest receives a WhatsApp message with a confirm button, and all they need is WhatsApp, which every Israeli already has installed.
How much does an RSVP service cost?
Pricing varies between providers and by guest count and messaging channel. It's worth requesting a quote based on your list size.
Which events suit an RSVP service?
Weddings, engagements, bar and bat mitzvah, brit, henna, birthdays and any event with a guest list to confirm.
