Organizing Apparel for Large Groups

When you gather aunts, uncles, and cousins for a group photo, getting everyone to match takes some planning. The easiest approach is to pick a central color palette or a specific theme like plaid patterns or printed button-down shirts. If half the group wears jerseys and the other half wears pajamas, the photos might look messy. Decide on your dress code before you send out the invitations.

You need to gather everyone's sizing information early. Every product page has its own size chart. Available sizes differ by product. Do not assume a medium in a pajama set matches a medium in a baseball jersey. Have your family members measure their favorite fitting shirts at home across the chest and down the torso. Compare those numbers to our charts to avoid sizing errors.

Because every item is printed to order, you should submit your group purchase well ahead of the holiday. If you order early for events, you avoid the stress of tracking packages the week of the dinner. Give yourself a cushion of a few weeks so everyone has their clothes ready to wear.

Personalized items take a name, and on jerseys a number, right on the product page. Double-check your spelling before adding items to the cart. We print exactly what you type in those text fields. If a cousin uses a nickname, verify it with their parents first.

Grouping your purchases helps the budget. Buying 3 or more items saves 10 percent automatically. Consolidating your family's choices into one transaction keeps things simple. If you are planning ahead for December parties as well, you might read our guide on ideas for New Years Eve outfit planning while you have your measurements handy.
