Special Event Personalization

Shirts made for your group's big moments

Getting everyone together is worth celebrating. We make personalized shirts, hoodies and sweatshirts for family reunions, family vacations and road trips, grandparent and milestone celebrations, teams, and businesses, with names, dates and a design made just for your group.

Personalization is for apparel only: T-shirts, hoodies and crewneck sweatshirts. For family and team sets, we also offer youth and toddler sizes, so the little ones can match too. We'll confirm the exact sizes and styles available for your design with your mockup.

Who it's for

  • Family reunions: your family name and year on the front, and a list of names or hometowns on the back.

  • Family vacations and road trips: matching shirts for the whole crew, so everyone stands out in the photos.

  • Grandparent and milestone family sets: matching shirts for Grandma, Grandpa and the grandkids, with each grandkid's name, plus big birthdays like a 70th or 80th and anniversaries.

  • Teams: shirts with your team name, colors and player names or numbers, for youth, adult and league teams.

  • Businesses and employees: matching shirts with your name or logo for staff, crews and company events.

How it works

  1. Send a request. Use the button below (it opens our Contact page) to tell us your occasion, names, dates, colors and sizes.

  2. Get a free mockup by email. We'll design your shirt and email you a picture of how it will look. There's no charge for the mockup and no obligation to order.

  3. Approve it or ask for changes. Reply to let us know it's right, or tell us what to change and we'll send an updated mockup.

  4. Share your group link (optional). Once you approve the mockup, we'll send you a private link to share with your group. Each person opens it, sees the approved design, and picks their own color and size.

  5. Review and place your order. Everyone's choices come back to you in one list. Look it over, make any changes, then place one order for the whole group.

  6. Printed and shipped by our printing partners. Once you approve, your order is printed just for you and shipped to your door.

Personalized designs you can order now

Ordering for a group

To keep things simple, one organizer places a single order for the whole group. You can gather everyone's sizes and colors yourself and list them in your request, or use your private group link.

Your private group link

Once you approve your mockup, we can send you a private link to share with your group by text or email. Each person opens it, sees the approved design, and picks their own color and size. There's no account to create, and they don't pay anything.

All the choices roll up into one list for you. You'll see who picked what, can fix anything that doesn't look right, and then place and pay for one order for everyone. Nothing is printed until you place that order.

Pricing

Personalization is built into the price: $3 per item more than the same item without personalization. You'll see the full price for your order with your mockup before you pay.

Group savings: 12 or more shirts get 5% off. At 20 or more shirts, 8% comes off the whole shirt order. Personalized orders: shipping is $2.50 per shirt, $5 minimum. The $3 per shirt personalization fee isn't discounted.

How long it takes

Plan on about 2 to 3 weeks from the day you approve your mockup until it arrives. Please give us as much notice as you can, especially for summer reunions and holiday trips.

Because each order is made just for you, we don't accept rush orders, and very short deadlines, such as a memorial or celebration of life, aren't possible. Please order early, and tell us the date you need it by in your request so we can let you know if it fits our usual 2 to 3 weeks.

Final sale

Personalized items are made just for you, so they're final sale once you approve your mockup and place your order. Please check names, dates, spelling, colors and sizes carefully before you approve and place your order. If something arrives with a print defect, or we made a mistake, we'll reprint it at no cost to you. Just contact us at info@ssfpublishing.com within 14 days of delivery with a photo.

The small print

  • Names and text: to keep everything easy to read, there's a limit to how many names fit on one design. If your list is long, we'll suggest a layout that works, such as moving names to the back.

  • Photos and logos: please send only photos and logos you own or have permission to use. We can't print sports team logos, brand names, characters or other trademarked or copyrighted artwork.

  • Colors may look a little different on fabric than on a screen.
