You’ll get about eight dates: request, approve, share the link, two reminders, the order-by date, an event-week reminder and the big day. Add them to your calendar or print them.
Your family shirt plan
How ordering works: we design your shirt, you approve it, and we send you one Amazon link. Each relative picks their own size and color, pays for their own shirt and has it shipped to their door.
Made with the free shirt planner at familyreunionshirt.com
Request your design about 3 to 5 weeks before the reunion — the bigger the family, the earlier. The design takes about 12 hours and the Amazon link 24–48 hours after you approve it. Give relatives one to three weeks to order, and set the order-by date about 10 days before the event so every shirt arrives in time.
How the plan works
The planner works backward from your event date. Nothing is guessed from your family — it’s the same simple rules every time, so you can check them yourself.
| Order-by date | 10 days before the event (14 for Christmas and Thanksgiving) to leave time for shipping. |
|---|---|
| Ordering window | 1–10 people: 7 days · 11–25 people: 10 days · 26–50 people: 14 days · 51–75 people: 14 days · 76–100 people: 21 days · 100+ people: 21 days. Bigger families take longer to reach. |
| Share the link | At the start of the ordering window. |
| Approve the design | 2 days before the link — we list it on Amazon and send the link within 24–48 hours. |
| Request the design | 3 days before approval — the first design arrives within 12 hours, with time for changes. |
| Reminders | One week before the order-by date, the day before it, and during event week. |
| Date | Step | Before the event |
|---|---|---|
| Fri, Jun 18, 2027 | Request your design | 29 days |
| Mon, Jun 21, 2027 | Approve the final design | 26 days |
| Wed, Jun 23, 2027 | Share the shirt link | 24 days |
| Wed, Jun 30, 2027 | Send the one-week reminder | 17 days |

| Wed, Jul 7, 2027 | Order-by date | 10 days |
| Mon, Jul 12, 2027 | Event-week reminder | 5 days |
| Sat, Jul 17, 2027 | The big day | 0 days |
Your plan is a suggestion, not a promise from Amazon: each person sees Amazon’s delivery estimate before they order. When in doubt, move the order-by date earlier. Planning the whole reunion, not just the shirts? Use the family reunion planning checklist.
Request the design about 3 to 5 weeks before the reunion — the bigger the family, the earlier. The design arrives within 12 hours and the Amazon link within 24–48 hours of approval, which leaves one to three weeks for relatives to order and about 10 days for shipping.
Everyone orders on their own, and Amazon ships each shirt to each person. An order-by date about 10 days before the event (14 for Christmas and Thanksgiving) leaves room for shipping and for the relatives who order late.
Often it still works: the design takes about 12 hours and the link 24–48 hours. The planner will show a tighter plan starting today. The risk is shipping, so ask everyone to check Amazon's delivery date before they order.
No. With one shirt link, each person picks their own size (toddler 2T up to 6XL) and color at checkout, pays for their own shirt, and has it shipped to their own address.
