Family Reunion Planning With A Personalized Touch

Family Reunion Planning With A Personalized Touch

How to plan a family reunion with Giftsin24.com

Somehow, my cousin and I got the brilliant idea to tackle the task of family reunion planning for our family’s first ever gathering. I don’t know what we were thinking, each of us having two young kids and working full-time. Nonetheless, the reunion is fast-approaching, and we’re getting very excited. Our small core of 14 aunts, uncles and cousins has grown over the years to include new spouses and kids, totaling over 40 people since our last gathering. We definitely had reason to plan a reunion!

How to plan a family reunion with that personal touch

Neither she nor I have experience in how to plan a family reunion, so we’ve done quite a bit of research. During our family reunion planning, we’re looking for ways to make our reunion special and memorable. Working here at Giftsin24.com, I didn’t have to look too far for inspiration.

Wondering how to plan a family reunion? Start with great personalized stationery.

First and most obvious were the custom invitations. Sure, we could’ve used email or even Facebook, but we really wanted to send our family the message that this is a significant event worth celebrating. We chose a fun, cheerful product, the Cherry Blossom Announcement Cards, as our invitation, and we inserted extra details about location and accommodations into the pocket holder with the invitation.

For our next bit of family reunion planning, we chose personalized napkins for the event. Personalized napkins? Yep. We wanted to infuse the event with reminders that we’re not just at some picnic, we’re at our family’s first organized family reunion. To coordinate with the Cherry Blossom personalized invitations, we chose the Beach Chair Foil-Stamped Napkins in white with red foil, customizing the napkins with our family name and the date of the reunion. I can’t wait to see the looks on our parents’ faces when they see this stylish touch!

Everyone loves a family reunion planner who gives them something to remember

As a special memento, we’re going to give each adult at the reunion a personalized gift, the Family Arch Memo Square with the reunion information and family names personalizing the border. Personalized gifts are a great way of helping people display their own family pride by showcasing their name personalized on a special gift.

When it’s all said and done, the party’s over and everyone’s back at their own homes, we plan to send personalized thank you notes using the Fun Stripes Tiny Tag Announcements. We’ll personalize the tag with a thank you message and insert favorite photos from the weekend into the pocket holder.

Family reunion planning done right

There’s a saying that goes, “If you’re going to do it, do it right.” That’s how my cousin and I feel about our family reunion planning, which is why we are putting so much caring attention into personalizing the event using custom stationery and personalized gifts.

Now, keep your fingers crossed that it doesn’t rain!
