Event Status After Sending

Draft
Your event remains in draft mode until you send the email to recipients. Draft events can still be edited.

Live
Once you send the email campaign, the event can no longer be edited. Recipients can begin registering immediately.

⚠️ Important: If you send a test email to yourself using the Send Test button, the event will remain in draft mode. The RSVP button in test emails will redirect to the ContactMonkey homepage instead of the registration page. This is expected behavior—the event will function correctly once you send the actual campaign.

Recipient Experience

When recipients click the RSVP button in their email, they'll be directed to a landing page where they can:

• View full event details
• Complete the registration form
• Submit their RSVP
• Add the event to their calendar
