Name Tag Pros • March 24, 2023

Here is a must-have checklist to make sure registration goes smoothly and makes a great first impression on your guests.


Event Planners Registration Table Checklist

Event Name Tags

When attendees arrive at an event, you want to create an experience for them by the way you have your registration table set up and organized. Other than the registration table itself, name tags create a great impression of your event. Think about your name badges as a “visual handshake.” Making connections will be something that lasts long after the event ends. 


You also want attendees to be able to connect quickly, and name tags are helpful for networking and making connections. By providing name badges for attendees at registration, they can identify those they would like to connect with quickly. Name badge design and how you organize them at registration communicate a lot about your event.


Registration Packets

In order to cut down on wait times and overcrowding in the registration area, use envelopes to expedite the process. Put everything attendees will need to benefit from your event in a single bag or envelope. There are numerous ideas for items to include in a registration packet. Suggestions include lanyards, badges, agendas, notepads, pens, sponsored materials, and anything else you feel will enhance their event experience. 


Office Supplies

Event planners can benefit from creating their own toolbox, so they are prepared for anything during registration. Include a variety of useful office supplies. The venue may have some items on hand, but you can save potential frustration trying to track them down if your registration table gets busy. Here are a few items you may want to include in your registration table.

  • Ink pens or pencils
  • Permanent markers
  • Dry erase markers
  • Glue sticks
  • Scissors
  • Notepad or notebooks
  • Highlighters
  • Stapler with staples


Fabric Tablecloth with Logo

If you want to take a registration table from good to great, add a fabric tablecloth. A high-quality table cover will provide a more professional look, no matter what kind of condition the table is in. If you want to step it up a little bit, order custom table covers that include your event or business logo. Use the same logo on name badges, promotional items, and other event items to enhance branding efforts and provide continuity.


Event Signs and Banners

The registration area can get chaotic and crowded quickly, especially if your attendees are unsure of where to go to check in. the last thing you need is for registration lines to be slowed by bottlenecks. You can help attendees get the registration information they need quickly and efficiently by providing signage or banners. Snap frame stands or custom retractable banners can help attendees find the correct location as soon as they arrive at the event.
