Who this template is for

Secret Santa Sign-Up Form is built for event organisers, venues and community teams who need to collect registrations, dietary needs and ticket choices in one pass.

  • Event organisers, venues and community teams working in registration & events.
  • Teams who need to collect registrations, dietary needs and ticket choices in one pass without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing headcounts that change hourly and no single attendee list with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are attendees, guests and speakers — the form asks them 10 questions across 1 screen.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of headcounts that change hourly and no single attendee list and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 4 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • Conditional logic hides 2 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Joining the reveal party?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Dietary needs for the party”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 2 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

Does it draw the names for me?

No. It collects a clean participant list with wishlists and restrictions; the draw itself is a shuffle you run once sign-ups close.

When should we publish it?

Late October or early November. Sign-ups collapse once December starts, and the shopping window disappears with them.

Why ask what people do not want?

It prevents the most common bad gift — food, alcohol or fragrance someone cannot use — without spoiling the surprise.

Can remote teams use it?

Yes. Add a delivery address question and set the budget to cover postage, or run the exchange as digital gifts.
