Finding people

Updated September 18, 2026

How do I find someone I met at a wedding or a party?

Good news first: a wedding or a party is the one scenario where you have a direct line. Somebody invited you both. Here's how to use that without making it a thing, and what to do when the host isn't an option.

Ask the host, lightly

"Who was the woman in the blue dress who knew every word to the Fleetwood Mac song?" is a normal question to ask a friend after their wedding, and most hosts love being asked. Let them decide how to connect you; a warm intro beats a cold message.

The shared album

Weddings have photographers, hashtags and shared albums; parties have the friend who took two hundred photos. Find the moment you remember and see who's tagged, or ask the host to pass a note to the person in the photo.

Nobody has to play messenger and nobody has to describe a dress.

When the host isn't an option

Sometimes the couple is on honeymoon, or you barely know the host, or it's awkward. That's when the other routes matter: the venue's photographer, the event's tag, the plus-one you did talk to.

Misd, without asking anyone

If you both have Misd, the reception is already a Moment: same place, same time. Open it, find them, say hello directly. Nobody has to play messenger and nobody has to describe a dress. It's the quietest way to follow up on the person you spent the whole cake cutting talking to.

Misd is invite-only right now; get a code and bring the group chat with you.

Questions people ask

Is it rude to ask the couple?
Not if you ask once, lightly, and let them decide. Weddings are where people expect to meet people.
What about a house party where I don't know the host?
Ask the friend who brought you. Failing that, the shared photos and, if you both have it, the Moment on Misd.
Does Misd show everyone at the wedding?
Only the other Misd users who were there, and they see you too. It's mutual.
