GROUPS
Groups are very powerful. You can setup any group name and invite any of your friends to participate in the group. Once set-up, when you click on "share event" it will ask if you want to share with your friends, a group, and if a group, which group.

Which ever you select, it will automatically send an event invite to them all instantly, where they can accept, block or reply to. We have added an RSVP feature so all members or group participants will be able to see who is going to the event.

This is a great feature for bars or bands too, because when they post an update on their specials or events it will automatically tell everyone in their group about the update! Think of the possibilities.
