subject: Personalized Name Tags For Any Event [print this page] When planning a large event whether corporate or personal, it may be a good idea to consider using name tags to allow guests to identify each other quickly and easily. For corporate events, this can help guests to network much more effectively, particularly if name tags have been printed with job roles as well as names. This is a great way to identify senior staff or other important members of any company, and name badges act as a great prompt or reminder for those who can be a little forgetful!
It is possible to personalize name tags in a wide variety of ways, which is great for a corporate event that has a specific color theme or symbol. Name tags can be printed with event titles and dates, whilst still leaving a space for a name to be inserted on a paper slip. Some organizers may like to use lanyards, which many guests and delegates prefer, as they do not require pinning or clipping to clothing. They can also be printed with an event's title and date, or a company name and logo, which is a great way to add additional advertizing to any name tags that are distributed.
Another great way to personalize name tags is to use ribbons, which can be printed with additional information and fixed to the bottom of existing name badges. This can be great for corporate events where there are a variety of meetings, exhibitions and talks, and ribbons can help to identify key speakers, sponsors, and members of the executive committee. Again, this style of identification can act as a good ice breaker and help guests to network more effectively.
Large personal events can also sometimes benefit from the use of name tags, and occasions such as family reunions or wedding rehearsals can often be made much simpler and easier by handing out name badges to guests as they arrive. A wedding rehearsal for example, will often bring together a large number of people who in many cases have never met, and it can be a great idea to give guests name tags printed with both their name and either 'his' or 'her' to indicate whose family they belong to. Some may even choose to color code their name tags, with blue badges for the groom's family and pink for the bride's - or any other color they choose! Additionally, attaching name tag ribbons for the bridal party or significant family members can also be a great idea, and colored ribbons printed with 'bridesmaid' 'ring bearer' or 'best man' would be a great ice breaker to help guests get to know each other before the big day.
Personalization is always easy, and tags or badges can be printed with the couple's names and the wedding date. In the case of a large family reunion for example, printing a lanyard with the family name and year of the reunion can also act as a great souvenir for many people. Name badges and tags make it much easier and quicker for guests to meet and mingle at any event, and can be personalized to suit any company or individual.
