Quick Answer
Is There an App for Planning a Family Reunion?
Yes — Reunly is built specifically for family reunion planning. It handles guest lists, RSVPs, budgets, timelines, schedules, and an AI assistant that sets everything up in 60 seconds. It's free to start at app.reunly.io.
What Reunly Does
AI assistant (Rosi)
Tell Rosi your reunion size, date, location type, and budget. She builds a customized plan — timeline, tasks, budget estimate, and schedule — in about 60 seconds.
Guest list management
Add unlimited guests. Track their contact info, family branch, dietary restrictions, RSVP status, and notes. Import from a spreadsheet or invite family to self-register.
Budget tracker
Enter line items for venue, food, activities, T-shirts, and more. See estimated vs. actual spending and per-person cost in real time.
Planning timeline
A checklist organized by how far you are from the event — 12 months out, 6 months, 3 months, 1 month, 1 week. Reunly tells you what to do next.
Schedule builder
Map out your day-of agenda with time slots. Share it with your committee and send a digital version to guests before the event.
Committee sharing
Invite planning committee members to access your Reunly plan. Everyone sees the same live guest list, budget, and schedule.
How Other Tools Compare
Before Reunly existed, families cobbled together tools that weren't built for this job:
Google Sheets
Flexible but requires manual setup. Separate sheets for guest list, budget, and schedule don't connect. Sharing with the committee works but version control becomes a mess.
Facebook Events
Good for communication and sharing. No budget tracking, no guest management beyond RSVPs, no schedule builder. Also requires guests to have Facebook accounts.
Eventbrite
Strong for ticket-based events. Doesn't handle potluck coordination, budget tracking, or the ongoing planning process. Designed for one-time events with paying attendees.
A planning binder
Preferred by many experienced organizers — but doesn't share well with the committee, can't update in real time, and doesn't calculate per-person costs automatically.
Reunly ← built for this
Purpose-built for family reunions. Guest list, budget, timeline, schedule, and AI assistant in one place. The only tool where all the pieces connect automatically.
Who Reunly Is Built For
Reunly was designed with a specific user in mind: the family organizer who's been doing this for years in a binder or a spreadsheet, who is comfortable with email but not developer-level tech, and who just wants something that works without requiring a manual to learn.
The type size is large. The interface is simple. Rosi does the heavy lifting at the start so you're not staring at a blank screen. You can use Reunly on any device — phone, tablet, or desktop — because reunion planning doesn't always happen at a desk.
If you've been managing your reunion from a group text and a notebook, Reunly is the upgrade that will save you hours.

App Questions Answered
What is the best app for planning a family reunion?
Reunly is built specifically for family reunion planning. It handles guest lists, RSVPs, budget tracking, timelines, schedules, and an AI assistant that builds your starter plan in 60 seconds. It's free to start and available at app.reunly.io. Other people use Google Sheets, Eventbrite, or Facebook Events — but none of these are purpose-built for reunion planning.
Is there a free app for family reunion planning?
Yes — Reunly's free tier covers everything most families need: unlimited guests, guest list management, budget tracking, timeline, and schedule builder. No credit card required to start.
Can I use Google Sheets to plan a family reunion?
Yes, but it requires significant manual setup. You'd need to build separate sheets for guest list, budget, and schedule — and they won't talk to each other. A dedicated tool like Reunly connects these automatically: when an RSVP comes in, your headcount updates, which updates your per-person cost estimates.
Stop juggling spreadsheets and group texts
Reunly is the one place your whole committee can plan, track, and run your family reunion.
