Family Reunion Planning & Contact Survey
Plan your family reunion with questions about dates, venues, activities, dietary needs, accessibility, and contact details. Preview and customize the template.
Ask the family before booking the reunion
Replace the candidate dates and venues with real options the planning committee can offer. Share the survey before making reservations, and give relatives a clear response deadline.
Read attendance likelihood together with date preferences and activity rankings. For example, a popular venue may still exclude relatives who cannot travel that far; follow up on the practical barrier before confirming the plan.
Collect only the contact and accommodation information the organizers need. Explain who can see those answers, keep individual needs out of group updates, and send a separate RSVP once the date and venue are confirmed.

What's the best email address to reach you at with reunion updates and RSVP details?
Explore what would make this year's reunion genuinely worth attending for this person — probe for a specific memory or moment from a past reunion that stood out, good or bad. If they said they're 'probably not' or 'definitely not' attending, gently uncover the real barrier (timing, cost, family tension, travel distance) and whether any change to the plan would shift their answer. Anchor follow-ups on their stated excitement level and attendance likelihood rather than asking generically.
Which age range do you fall into?
- Under 18
- 18-29
- 30-44
- 45-59
- 60-74
- 75+

Thanks so much for filling this out! The planning committee will use your answers to pick a date, venue, and activities that work for the most family members — and we'll follow up at the email you gave us.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Goes beyond static RSVP fields to run an AI follow-up interview that digs into what would make this year's reunion genuinely worth the trip and what's kept people away in past years
- Combines structured planning data (attendance likelihood, date/location preference, ranked activity priorities, dietary and accessibility needs, contact info) with open-ended qualitative insight in one flow
- Uses a warm chat-style opening and closing message plus an excitement opinion scale, so the survey feels conversational rather than transactional
- Captures age range and accessibility/dietary needs directly, helping planners tailor logistics rather than just collecting a headcount
SurveyMonkey
Family Reunion Contact Form TemplateA straightforward contact-form template aimed at collecting name and reach-out details for reunion planning. It's fielding-ready but appears narrowly scoped to contact info rather than broader planning inputs like dates, activities, or dietary/accessibility needs. Backed by SurveyMonkey's established survey infrastructure and analytics.
What it does well
- Well-known, trusted survey platform with broad distribution options
- Simple, ready-to-use template for basic contact collection
- Easy to customize within a familiar form builder
Where it falls short
- Static contact form with no adaptive follow-up questioning to explore attendee motivations or hesitations
- No built-in mechanism for exploring activity preferences, dietary needs, or accessibility in the same template
- No transparent AI prompt methodology since it isn't an AI-driven interview tool
Jotform
Numanaga Family Reunion Form TemplateA pre-built, fielding-ready reunion registration form covering standard fields like attendance and contact details. It's a static drag-and-drop form rather than an interview experience, so it can't dynamically probe individual responses. Jotform's strength is fast customization and integration with its broader form ecosystem.
What it does well
- Ready-made template that can be deployed quickly
- Drag-and-drop customization typical of Jotform's builder
- Supports standard reunion registration fields out of the box
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up interview to uncover deeper motivations or barriers to attendance
- No automated per-response quality scoring or generated reporting
- Static question set with no voice-based interview option
Typeform
Free Family Reunion Registration Form TemplateA polished, conversational-style registration form for reunion sign-ups, consistent with Typeform's design-forward approach. It handles registration basics well but is still a fixed question sequence, not an adaptive interview. Good for a clean respondent experience but limited for deeper qualitative insight.
What it does well
- Attractive, conversational one-question-at-a-time interface
- Free template that's quick to deploy for registration
- Mobile-friendly design typical of Typeform forms
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI-driven follow-up questioning to explore reasons for attendance or past no-shows
- No voice AI interview option or guided screen-share tasks
- No automated quality scoring or auto-generated analysis reports
Frequently asked questions
Is a family reunion planning survey the same as an RSVP?
No. A planning survey asks which dates, venues, and activities would work before the plan is final. An RSVP confirms attendance for an agreed date and location. Use the planning results to make decisions, then ask relatives to confirm their attendance.

The template includes 12 ready-to-use questions, starting with: “Hi! We're starting to plan this year's family reunion and want it to work for as many of us as possible.
