It's good to have something to look forward to. An evening with friends, a family dinner or a trip with your colleagues. And sometimes the looking forward starts with a simple question: what should we do?
You post the question in the group chat, then get a private message on the side from the one who wants to go laser tagging, and they're leaning on you. Ideas pile into the chat, someone brings up the last trip and sends a photo of the time one of the group ended up in hospital: "let's at least not go horse riding again". Suddenly everyone is talking about something else. That's how it goes when people know each other well and nothing is too serious.
But we still have to decide.
Offer a few options and ask
With a poll in Melda you can ask your guests directly on the event page. Pizza or barbecue? A swim before dinner? Should we take a bus together? Stand-up, an improv show or the cinema? You write a question and a few options. Guests vote and you watch the answers come in.
That makes the next step easier to decide. And your guests get a say in the evening they're about to spend together.
Try the poll below. Pick an answer and change your mind. It's only a demo.

Choose one or more options
One question at a time
Open your event, write a post and tap the poll icon. Add your question and the options, then publish the post. Guests answer on their own guest page, where everything about the event is already in one place.
You can allow one answer or several, make the poll anonymous and decide when it closes. Guests can change their minds while the poll is open.
More time for the people
You don't have to put everything to a vote. Sometimes one question is enough to clear whatever was standing in the way of the next decision.
Ask your guests in Melda and finish the planning. When they arrive, you can sit down with them, hear what's new and enjoy being together.
