stepping up your event name tags

Tip 1: Event Name Tags Should Be Practical

Name badges should look good, of course. But they also need to be practical. Choosing an appropriate design and size is important. Attendees should be able to easily read names and titles. You may consider using a color-coded system to identify the various roles by using different colors for vendors, guests, speakers, or exhibitors. 


You may want to consider adding an extra layer of security to your event by using ID name badges. This style also allows for extras like printing the schedule on the back of the name tag. Adding other practical information to name tags such as a table number if you have assigned seats, or a WiFi password helps step up your event experience.


Tip 2: Include Gender-Neutral Pronouns

When hosting an event, it’s important to make sure all of your attendees feel welcome, safe, and included. One way to accomplish this is to include gender pronouns on your name tags. This helps improve and encourage communication efforts. Displaying pronouns helps prevent awkward moments and helps ensure everyone is comfortable at your event. 


You can easily and courteously ask for the attendee’s pronouns in the sign-up process. Gender-neutral pronouns are usually added in an extra line underneath the attendee’s name. No matter what style of name tag you choose for your event, we are happy to accommodate by adding pronouns for your attendees.
