Couldn’t find examples of this on google.
ぜひ seems to be used with ください, like ぜひ来てください！
can you also say ぜひ来て欲しい and use ぜひ like this, or is it just for the command ください？ If not, can you explain if there are any other ways to use ぜひ besides with the ください form. I said ぜひ来てほしい and looking back I think it was wrong. maybe I should have said 絶対？ not sure.
Thank you!

The person speaking it is eager to do something.
Often it is accompanied by a sentence that expresses a request or a desire, but can often be imagined from the situations.
If expressed in English, it would be equivalent to “by all means”, “please”, “I do hope …”.

Theres one nuance missing from the other posts which is pretty important, which is the speaker understands that it may be a hassle or troublesome to do it but the speaker hope the listener take the trouble to do it.
ぜひ来てほしい is correct.
example:
今夜のパーティに私も参加していいですか？
Can I join the party tonight?
本当？ぜひ来てほしい！
Really? Of course!
​
Another example:
今度の週末、映画を観に行かない？
Want to go see a movie this weekend?
ぜひぜひ！何を観るつもり？
Sure! What movie are you going to see?
