Bluebox

For organizers

Event guest management software.

Build your guest list, group and seat every guest, then watch arrivals come in live — all in one workspace behind the guest experience.

Build the list

Add guests one by one,
or import the whole list.

Every event starts with a guest list. Add guests individually as RSVPs and details come in, or import an existing list in one go by uploading a file or pasting it in. As you import, BlueBox checks for likely duplicates so the same guest doesn't end up added twice under slightly different spellings.

Add individually

Useful for late additions or a small guest list you're building up over time.

Import with duplicate detection

Upload or paste a larger list and review flagged duplicates before they're added.

Groups and tables

Group guests together,
then seat them.

Guests can be organized into groups — a family, a party, a department — which makes reviewing and seating a large list easier to manage than one long, flat list.

Each guest can then be given a table and, optionally, a specific seat. The tables and seating view shows a live count per table, so it's easy to spot which tables are full, which have space, and which guests still don't have a table at all.

Know you're ready
before doors open.

An event readiness view tracks progress across your guest list, seating and event setup, so you can see at a glance what's done and what still needs attention before you go live.

On the day

Watch guests arrive,
live.

Once your event goes live, arrivals update in real time as guests check in — whether they check themselves in from their phone or the BlueBox display, or staff check them in from the organizer app. You always know how many guests have arrived against your full list.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add guests to my event?

Add guests one at a time, or import a list by uploading or pasting it. BlueBox flags likely duplicates before they're added.

Can I organize guests into groups?

Yes. Guests can be grouped, for example by family or party, which makes seating and reviewing the list easier.

How does table assignment work?

Each guest can be given a table and an optional seat. The tables and seating view shows per-table counts so you can see who still needs a table.

What does event readiness show?

A readiness view tracks progress across your guest list, seating and event setup so you can see what's left before you go live.

Can I see guests arriving during the event?

Yes. Live arrivals show check-in counts as guests check in, whether by themselves or with staff assistance.
