If you’re a Google Calendar user, you know how to send guests invitations to events. But what if you want to invite them even faster, without having to go through Google? Here are some tips on how to email Google Calendar event guests quickly.
- Start by creating an event in your calendar and selecting the “Invite Guests” tab.

- Click the “Create Invitation” button and enter your message into the text field.
- Click the “Send” button and enjoy your party!
If you want to email meeting participants or event guests ahead of time, you can do so right from Google Calendar. There’s no need to copy and paste all those email addresses. Just click a button and type.

A new message window will open with everyone’s email addresses populated for you. At the top, you may see options for who to send the email to, such as those who haven’t accepted the invitation yet. Check those you want to include, type your message, and press “Send.”
The email will be sent from your connected Google account through Gmail.

Email Guests on Android
Open the event in the Google Calendar app on your Android device. Tap the three dots on the top right and select “Email Guests.”
You’ll see some handy suggestions like letting everyone know you’ll be there soon or that they can start without you. You can also choose to write your own message.
If you have more than one email app on your device, you may be asked which one you’d like to use. Then just select the app and a new message will be created with the email addresses. Simply complete the email and send it.
Email Guests on iPhone and iPad
Open the event in the Google Calendar app on your iPhone or iPad. Tap the three dots on the top right and select “Email Guests.”
If prompted, select the email app you’d like to use. The new message will be created with the email addresses of the attendees. Unlike Android, you don’t have quick suggestions, so just type your message and send.
The ability to email event guests directly from Google Calendar is handy. You can make sure everyone’s included and save time from gathering all of those email addresses.
And remember, if you simply want to reschedule, you can propose a new time for a Google Calendar event without emailing the group.
