For the team saying thank you properly
The leaving group chat goes quiet the moment it is made. Put the party on a page instead, with a wishes wall the person leaving can keep reading long after the cake is finished.
Someone announces they are off to a new city, and within an hour there is a group called Farewell for Marta. For two days it is full of jokes and dates, and then the logistics bury it: someone asks where the drinks are, another wonders whether the time is still right, and the wishes — the reason anyone joined — trail off unanswered.
A page does the remembering instead. The details sit where everyone can find them, replies collect on one list, and a moderated message wall gathers what the team wanted to say. The group chat can go quiet; the farewell did not depend on it.
Farewell pages get used differently from birthday ones. The features hosts lean on:
An empty message box dares people to be vague. Put these beside it:
One specific thing, however small. The Tuesday spreadsheet rescue. The chair that squeaks only when she sits.
The conference where the projector died and the presentation became a story instead.
Better chairs. A kettle that works. Colleagues who already know where the good printer is.
Time, address, directions on the page, and a reply form with plus-ones inside whatever the pub room holds.
Gift collection with card or bank transfer records each sender and their message, so a collection is thanked name by name rather than in general.
Half the department never answers anything. Reminders by WhatsApp or email go to the silent list, not to Marta, who is busy packing.
Collaborators with access levels mean the second organiser can manage replies and moderate wishes without the whole thing living on one phone.
Farewell parties are not a dedicated template type on the platform; they use the same tools any gathering gets, and they suit them well. Nothing about a page carrying RSVPs, reminders, a guest list and a moderated wishes wall depends on the occasion being standard. The tone lives in the wording, and the wording is yours.
How it works
In the web app, describe the evening to the AI drafter: a farewell for a colleague on the 18th, pub room above the station, forty people. It writes the first draft of the page from those facts.
Turn on the guestbook, pick the prompts, and choose who approves notes. For a farewell, the host usually reads everything once the night before and lets the kind stuff through.
Publish and send the link to the department group, the alumni thread and the work-friends chat. One page, identical for everyone, forwarded as widely as the team likes.
The party ends; the page stays up. Wishes and photos keep arriving for a week, and the person who left has something to read on the train to the new job.
Questions
Yes, and most hosts set it up for exactly that. The page stays live with its wishes and gallery after everyone has gone home, which makes it a keepsake rather than decoration. Many teams read the wall aloud at the party and leave the link in the department chat for the months after.
The moderators you appoint — usually the organiser and one trusted colleague. Notes wait for approval before showing on the page, which keeps office humour in the group chat and kindness on the wall.
They can. A table QR code takes guests to photo upload, so pictures from the night go onto the page's gallery while people are still in the room, instead of a drive folder nobody opens.
Common, and tidy when done on the page. Gift collection through card or bank transfer records every sender and their note, so the bouquet and the forty separate five-pound contributions are each properly acknowledged.

Start free, give the team one page with the details and a wall worth writing on. When the list is bigger than expected, the pricing page lays out what growth looks like.
