I get the following error when I submit the form:

Invalid address: (to):

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception' with message 'Invalid address: (to): ' in /home1/consort/public_html/vendor/phpmailer/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php:972 Stack trace: #0 /home1/consort/public_html/vendor/phpmailer/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php(902): PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer->addOrEnqueueAnAddress('to', NULL, '') #1 /home1/consort/public_html/reservation_form.php(22): PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer->addAddress(NULL) #2 /home1/consort/public_html/reservation_form.php(133): smtpmailer(NULL, 'from@mail.com', 'Reservation For...', 'New Reservation', NULL) #3 {main} thrown in /home1/consort/public_html/vendor/phpmailer/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php on line 972

Here is my form code in reservation.php:

Code:
<form class="reserve2" name="contactform" method="post" action="reservation_form.php">
    <table >
      <tr>

      <tr>
        <td>

      </tr>
      <tr>

      <tr>

      </tr>
      <tr>

      </tr>

        </td>
      </tr>

      </tr>
    </table>

Here is my php code for reservation_form.php:

 ?>

I believe I've narrowed it down to the "method=post" attribute not working for some reason.
