Reunion Event Registration - Multiple options for event attendance

Janet Guidas

Is there a way (NXT) to build an event registration for one event (like Homecoming/Reunion) with multiple event options to pick from. Right now our homecoming events are built as stand alone event, our guests need to register for each event separately. Look for options for easier for user.

@Janet Guidas - If you're not looking for a lot of sophistication, you can do it.

For our 50th Year reunion, I set up multiple fees for the various events for the weekend:

Friday at 5 - class mass

Friday at 6 - reunion reception

Saturday at 10:45 - museum tour

Sunday at Noon - tea

Sunday at 2:30 - recognition at graduation

Each 'fee' exports to CSV/Excel as a separate column with the corresponding number that were RSVP'd for that event. A little clunky, but it is nice not needing to manually enter event attendance in RE from an outside source.

As of today (4/7/2026), this link is active through mid-May if you want to take a look at the functionality.

Hi @Janet Guidas this was posted in Blackbaud CRM Developers discussions, so I moved it over to the Raiser's Edge NXT community for answers. Thanks!

The simple answer is no. There is no easy way to have multiple event linked or nested within RE in a way that makes your reporting easier. Or at least that's been my experience. In the past, we have used an third party platform for this type of requirement.

Elaine - thank you so much for sharing your homecoming registration. I appreciate it.

Lucy - thank you. We are considering a third party.
