There’s nothing quite like a family reunion. It’s a rare chance to get everyone together—share stories, meet new babies, laugh at old jokes, and remember the ones who made your family what it is today.
Here at In Stitches Embroidery, we’ve worked with so many amazing families to create custom reunion shirts that reflect their unique style, history, and humor. And along the way, we’ve picked up some great ideas to help make your reunion even more unforgettable.
Take a look at some of our favorites:
1. Family Olympics
Turn your reunion into a friendly competition! Think potato sack races, tug-of-war, water balloon fights, and a grand prize for the winning team. Bonus points if you make custom shirts in team colors!
2. Memory Table
Ask relatives to bring old photos, newspaper clippings, or family heirlooms. Create a table or board where everyone can stop by and reminisce. You could even design your shirts around a favorite family photo or crest!
3. Cook-Off Challenge
Who makes the best ribs? Whose banana pudding reigns supreme? Let everyone bring a dish and vote for their favorites. It’s a delicious way to celebrate your roots.
4. Open Mic Night
Set up a mic and let the family share songs, stories, jokes, or memories. It’s heartwarming (and hilarious), and a great way to hear from every generation.
5. Crafts for the Kids
Keep the little ones entertained with a creative corner—let them decorate shirts, make bandanas, or paint rocks with the family name and date.
And of course, tie it all together with a custom t-shirt design from us! We’ll walk you through every step, from picking the perfect color to designing something that your family will love—and wear long after the reunion ends.
