    Is there any work around for guests with the same first and last names? It’s basically a Jr Sr situation, but unless the guest knows to enter a Jr or a Sr after their name (ex: First Name “John” Last Name “Doe Sr”) to search for their entry, they won’t show up. Any good work arounds for this so the correct person will be searched?

  • I had the same problem with the guest list for my wedding using this plugin. I wasn’t able to find a solution. Although I was able to work around in my situation by using associated guests.

    I had 2 Tyler Lees, Tyler Lee Jr and Tyler Lee Sr. Tyler Lee Sr in likely to RSVP himself, but Tyler Lee Jr will most likely get his wife Amanda to RSVP. Tyler Lee Sr gets put into the system as “Tyler Lee” and Tyler Lee Jr gets put into the system as “Tyler Lee Jr” and is associated with “Amanda Lee” When Amanda RSVPs she will also be able to RSVP for Tyler Lee Jr without needing to type in the “JR”

    Sorry for the long response, but that’s the only way I could find to work around the problem.

    Thanks for your help! I was thinking something similar the past couple days. I think asking users to search by their wives names first will solve the problem as well as putting a contact form in case anyone is having problems.
