Thirty-five years changes a face. Name tags with a yearbook photo are the single best icebreaker at any reunion. Here is how to make them look sharp.

Quick answer

Class Reunly generates print-ready reunion name tags straight from your RSVP list, so you skip fiddly templates entirely. If you build your own, use standard adhesive or clip-on badges sized to fit a name, class year, and a yearbook photo, print them in one batch, and keep a few blanks and a marker for walk-ups.

Why the yearbook photo is non-negotiable

At a 20, 30, or 40 year reunion, half the room will not recognize the other half on sight, and the awkward squint at a stranger's chest tag kills the mood before hellos even start. A name tag that pairs the person's current name with their senior-year yearbook photo solves it instantly. People light up, the memory clicks, and the conversation starts itself. It is the cheapest, highest-impact thing on your whole supply list.

Formats that print cleanly

Adhesive badge labels

The classic peel-and-stick sheet (typically 8 or 10 to a page). Cheap, fast, and fine for a casual reunion, though they can peel off jackets by hour three.

Clip-on or lanyard holders

Insert a printed card into a plastic holder. Reusable, sturdier, and roomier, ideal when you want a photo and class year on the tag. Slightly more cost and assembly.

Larger event badges

A 3-by-4 inch card leaves space for a big name, the yearbook photo, and even a nickname or old sports number. Best for a formal evening where legibility across a room matters.

A few handwritten blanks

Always print extras and keep a bold marker at the table for walk-ups and last-minute guests. Nobody should stand there without a tag.

Put the 17-year-old face next to the 55-year-old name, and watch the whole room stop squinting and start hugging.

Printing tips that save the night

  • Use a big, legible font, first name largest, readable from a few feet away. This is a design-for-older-eyes job; err too big, never too small.
  • Set names in high contrast, dark ink on a light tag, and avoid busy backgrounds behind the text.
  • Do a single test page first to confirm alignment before you run 150 tags and discover every one is off-center.
  • Alphabetize and lay them out by last name on the check-in table so people find their own tag fast and the line keeps moving.
