Description

We've gotten some feedback that it might be a little weird to have the guest show up as confirmed in the calendar event due to many factors including all of our emails to the guest going to spam, not recieving the calendar ics file email, not accepting the event invite and therefore forgetting the event is planned, etc...

We should look into how we can adjust this flow, maybe add the option of reminder emails for events if the guest ticks a checkbox during the booking flow.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing the booking flow, guest confirmation state, calendar event creation, and calendar ICS email delivery; clarify whether reminder emails and a booking-time checkbox are required. Done means the desired guest status and reminder behavior are agreed and covered by tests.
