Aventide event room Messages tab: the emails that go out by themselves for Spring Open Studio.

What goes out by itself

The event’s Messages tab lists each email it sends on its own: the ticket and receipt, your Know before you go note, reminders, a nudge to finish signing, and the thank-you, which waits for your OK.

Story two: a place

A 20-person retreat, with the paperwork handled

An event becomes a place when its tickets carry a deposit, an agreement or a questionnaire. You don’t pick a type. The paperwork decides.

A deposit at checkout. The balance becomes up to three invoices, each sent 14 days before it is due and reminded like any other invoice.

Agreements chosen per ticket. Add one or several, and pick which tickets each applies to. You sign each once when you publish, and each guest signs their own copy from their ticket page.

A questionnaire after booking, answered on each guest’s ticket page. Passport and health details stay hidden until you choose to see them.

Client rooms, if you want them. Each guest gets a client room and a portal of their own, with the event and its checklist first.

Guests wait under Participants in Clients, outside your pipeline, until you promote the ones you keep working with.

The organizer’s room

Everything you do for an event, in one place

Each event has its own room with five tabs: Overview, People, Money, Messages and Setup. This is what you can do there.

Aventide new event setup: cover photo, event title, brand image picker and description.

What you fill in

A new event starts with a cover from your own brand images, a title and a few words. Two more steps and it’s ready to share.

Aventide event room Money tab: Spring Open Studio sales by ticket, refunds and expenses.

What you see

The Money tab: what came in by ticket type, refunds, expenses and what is left. No spreadsheet to keep up after the event.

Check people in

Scan tickets, search by name, check in a whole party and add walk-ins.

Email ticket holders

Email selected people or everyone, up to three emails per event a day.

Answer every question

Attendees write from their ticket page or reply to any event email. It lands in your team inbox, marked with the event.

See the money

Event sales in Money shows each event’s sales, what is collected, refunds and what is still owed.

Refund from the row

Refund one ticket or the whole order from the attendee’s row, or let your own refund policy do it. Card refunds go back through your Stripe.

Waitlist and approval

When it sells out, the next person is offered the place. Or approve each booking before anyone pays.

Pay another way

Take Zelle, Venmo or cash. Seats are held until you mark the money received.

Add a guest

Put a speaker, a friend or a paid-in-person guest on the list. They count against your limits.

How it’s selling

About how many viewed your page, started checkout and bought. Daily totals, never who looked.

Discount codes

Make percent or amount codes. Money shows how often each was used and what it gave.

Refunds by your policy

Set your own steps, like full refund until a date and half after. Turn on automatic refunds if you want them.

Rooms and groups

Put guests in rooms or groups by hand. A full room says so, and a pair who asked to share is flagged.

What your attendee gets

A ticket they can find, and a page that keeps up

Aventide public event page for Spring Open Studio: about, host and the ticket box with two ticket types.

What your guest sees

Your event page, in your brand: the date, the place, add to calendar, and each ticket type with its price and what is left. Nothing to sign up for before they buy.

Over every event

The same Aventide that runs the rest of your work

Events sit beside your sessions, projects and clients. Three things carry across all of them.

Say it, and it happens

Ask Sidekick how an event is selling or who has checked in, or to email everyone coming. Anything that goes out asks for your OK first, and you can give it from the Aventide app on your phone.

One record for each person

A buyer becomes a contact, never a duplicate. Their tickets, check-ins, bookings, invoices and agreements sit in one history, next to your other clients. Their person card shows when you last spoke and what needs you.

Expenses with everything else

Log the venue deposit or the caterer’s bill in Money, or send a photo of the receipt to Sidekick on Telegram.

Sell sessions or projects too? Read Aventide for sessions and Aventide for projects. Plans and every detail are on the pricing page.

Between the ticket and the door

Attendees write to you from their ticket page, or by replying to any event email you send.

Every message lands in one team inbox as a conversation about the event, and you reply as your business.

A busy event is one row, “Riverside Yoga Retreat, 15 waiting”, so nothing gets lost in a pile of emails.

Answer several people at once. Each gets the same words in their own private conversation.

Check people in, approve and reply from the Aventide app on your phone.

Before a retreat call, the person card shows who they are, when you last spoke and what needs you.

Guests on a retreat see one place for everything with you: client portal software with messages.

Your event registration form

Ask the questions you need at checkout, from dietary needs to how they heard about you.

Ask more after booking. Each guest answers on their own ticket page.

Every answer lands in one place: the event’s Responses view.

Export the answers when the venue needs a list.

The registration form is part of the event. No separate form tool.

Questions organizers ask

How do I sell tickets for an event?

Make the event in Aventide with its date, place and ticket types, then publish it. You get a page in your brand with a link and an embed code for your website, and buyers pay on your own Stripe account. Their tickets arrive by email with a code you scan at the door.

Which ticketing platform has the lowest fees?

Compare two fees: the platform’s own cut on each ticket and the card processing fee. Aventide adds no fee per ticket and ticketing uses no AI credits, so the only fee on a sale is your own Stripe account’s processing fee. You pay Aventide a flat monthly plan. See the fees on a $1,500 retreat place, side by side.

Which ticketing platform has the lowest fees?

Yes. Set a deposit at checkout and up to three later payments on the ticket. Each later payment is an invoice, sent 14 days before it is due and reminded like any other invoice.

What is a good Eventbrite alternative for small events?

For workshops, classes and retreats, Aventide is one option. Your event page carries your brand, paid tickets go to your own Stripe with no fee per ticket, and you check people in from any phone. It also has a waitlist and emails to ticket holders. See Eventbrite alternatives for retreats and workshops.

What is a good Eventbrite alternative for small events?

Open the event’s Door tab and scan the code with your own phone, or give a code to a volunteer’s phone. No sign-in is needed. Scan tickets or search by name, and check-ins sync when the signal comes back.

What is the best event registration software for a small business?

Look for registration that takes payment, asks your questions and checks people in, without a fee on each ticket. Aventide asks the questions you set at checkout, and can ask how they heard about you. Answers stay in the event’s Responses view. Payment goes to your own Stripe, check-in works from any phone, and attendees can message you from their ticket page.

How do I plan a retreat?

Set the dates, the place, the price and how many places you have, then decide how people pay and what they sign. In Aventide a retreat place can take a deposit at checkout and up to three later payments. It can also carry an agreement each attendee signs online, and a questionnaire before it starts.

How much should I charge for a retreat?

Add up your cost per person (venue, food, travel and materials) and your own time, then leave a margin for places you may not fill. A deposit to hold a place, with the rest spread over later payments, makes a higher price easier to say yes to. In Aventide a place can take a deposit and up to three later payments.

What should a retreat deposit and refund policy say?

Say how much holds a place, when the rest is due, and what a person gets back if they cancel by each date. In Aventide you choose: decide each refund yourself, or refund by your own policy, with your own steps such as full refund until one date and half until another. Buyers read it in plain sentences before they pay. Turn on automatic refunds and a card order is refunded under your policy when the holder says they can’t make it.

Can each guest sign a waiver?

Yes. Each attendee signs from their ticket page. Add one agreement or several, and choose which tickets each one applies to. You sign each once, when you publish the event.

Can I take a deposit and collect the rest on a payment plan?

Yes. A place can take a deposit at checkout. The balance becomes up to three invoices, each sent 14 days before it is due and reminded like any other invoice.

Can I collect emergency contact and health details?

Yes. Add a questionnaire with the questions you choose, such as an emergency contact. Each guest answers it on their ticket page after booking. Passport and health details stay hidden until you choose to see them.

Can I assign rooms?

Yes. Put guests in rooms or groups by hand. A full room says so, and a pair who asked to share is flagged.

How do I fill a retreat?

Start with people who already know you. List the event on your booking page, embed it on your website and share its link. When it sells out, the waitlist offers each place that frees up to the next person for a set time.
