Thanksgiving Planning Tips

Categorize by Course

Break your signup into appetizers, sides, mains, desserts, and drinks so guests can see gaps at a glance.

Set a Signup Deadline

Close signups 5-7 days before Thanksgiving so you have time to fill any gaps and plan grocery runs.

Include Serving Sizes

Note how many servings each slot should feed to avoid ending up with a tiny salad for 30 people.

Share Early and Often

Send the signup link right after Halloween while Thanksgiving is on everyone's mind.
