What this question tests

Product sense for a complex, multi-stakeholder, emotionally significant event-planning use case.

Clarify scope: guest coordination and RSVP versus full vendor and logistics planning.
Pick guest coordination as most aligned with the platform's social-graph strength.
Identify pain points: managing RSVPs across many guests, sharing evolving details, and coordinating with family on decisions.
Propose a dedicated event hub with RSVP tracking, a shared planning board, and a guest update feed.
Prioritize RSVP and guest management first, since it's the most acute coordination pain.
Define success as percent of invited guests who RSVP through the feature.

Scopes to guest coordination, the platform's natural strength via its social graph, rather than competing with vendor-booking platforms.
Names the real pain point, coordinating many guests and family stakeholders, not generic 'planning tools'.
Adds a shared planning board for the couple and family, recognizing weddings involve multiple decision-makers.
Picks RSVP completion rate as success metric, tied to the highest-value coordination task.

Trying to build a full vendor-booking and logistics platform, competing outside the platform's core strength.
Ignoring that multiple people often co-plan a wedding, not just one user.

How would you handle privacy for guests who don't want their RSVP status public?
How would you differentiate this from existing wedding-planning apps?
