Photo Booth
-
Try fitting multiple people in the booth if there is enough space. Many family members will want to take pictures while the whole family is together at a reunion. Provide your family the opportunity for instant prints by renting a photo booth. Family members can go into the booth and take a set of four pictures in each sitting. Prints will show all pictures on one sheet. Share your pictures with other family members, and take some to keep for yourself. Have fun and act silly while taking pictures with family in a photo booth.
Autograph Tee Shirts

Choose bright colored shirts, and use black permanent markers. Have a shirt printed for your family reunion event. Display the family name and the year your reunion takes place. Order shirts in multiple sizes to accommodate all family members. Purchase at least one pack of permanent markers. Hand out markers at the reunion to family members. Have family members write their names and messages to others on the T-shirts. The shirts will be souvenirs family members can take with them.

Karaoke

While singing karaoke, share the microphone or purchase an additional one. Karaoke is fun for all ages. Rent or purchase a karaoke machine. Karaoke machines come with music options from every musical generation. If there are certain artists and songs that you know will be requested, you can purchase additional music to play on your karaoke machine. Make sure the location of your reunion will have electricity and a television to use for the karaoke machine.
Film a Video

Take turns fiming to capture different scenes and commentary. Capture family reunion memories by hiring a photographer or taking your fill with a video camera. Have family members express emotions about their experiences at the reunion. Film all family members having fun and spending time together. This will be a wonderful gift to family members who can't attend. Make copies of your film to send to individual families who attended the reunion so they have visual memories of the family reunion.
