How to plan a family reunion the whole family actually shows up to

Family reunions break in ways smaller trips don’t: three separate email threads with three generations, kids nobody thought to plan meals for, cousins who show up expecting a bed and end up on a couch, and grandma’s dietary restrictions the caterer never heard about.

JourneyGrid gives every reunion a single shared board that spans generations. Family units (parents + kids) live as groups inside the crew. Lodging tracks every cabin, hotel room, and vacation rental with per-person assignments. Meals get one owner each with dietary flags per attendee visible on the shared board. The full multi-day schedule (Friday welcome dinner, Saturday activity, Sunday brunch, etc.) lives in one place everyone - including the grandparents - can pull up on a phone.

Family reunion planning checklist

9+ months out: destination + dates locked, lodging block reserved. 6 months: attendee list confirmed, dietary restrictions collected per person. 3 months: activity plan finalized, catering booked with dietary breakdown, ground transport confirmed for out-of-towners. 6 weeks: shared trip board sent to every family, RSVPs finalized. 2 weeks: final headcount to caterer, meal owners assigned, arrival windows collected. Day-of: push notifications when the vans leave, dinner starts, or the plan shifts.

Frequently asked

Common questions about planning a family reunion

What is the best app for planning a family reunion?
JourneyGrid handles the four things family reunions break on: multi-family lodging (whose family is in which cabin?), dietary restrictions across generations, ground transport for out-of-towners, and the multi-day schedule of shared meals + activities.
How do you plan a family reunion for 30+ people?
Start with lodging (block book a resort, a cluster of rentals, or a cabin compound) and a lead date. Track every family unit as a group. Assign one owner per shared meal or activity. Use dietary flags per person so caterers get accurate counts. JourneyGrid supports unlimited attendees on the Unlimited plan.
How do you handle dietary restrictions at a big family reunion?
Every attendee gets dietary flags (gluten-free, vegan, allergies, kid-friendly) visible to whoever’s cooking or ordering catering. Restaurants and caterers see the breakdown before you arrive.
Can JourneyGrid handle multi-generational family reunions with kids?
Yes. Flag kids per family unit (with ages if you want), assign them to sleeping spots inside a family group, and track kid-specific dietary + gear needs. Every generation sees the shared plan on their phone.
