Bachelorette Party Shirts
Custom bachelorette shirts for the person who got handed the group chat and the job of making everyone match. Olive Branch Apparel prints soft tees, tanks and hats for bachelorette and bachelor trips, with no minimum, so a group of five is as welcome as a group of twenty five.
Bachelorette party shirts for the trip, bridesmaid shirts for the morning of, and bachelor party shirts for the other half of the wedding party. Design yours below, see your price in the studio, and approve a proof before anything is printed.
Design Your Bachelorette Shirts Here
Add your art or type out the trip name, choose a color, and watch the price for custom bachelorette shirts update as you set the group size. The studio opens on a soft, lightweight unisex tee that suits a mixed group and photographs well.
Custom Bachelorette Shirts Come in Two Kinds
Before you open a design tool, decide what the shirt is for. Nearly every group lands on one of two answers, and they lead to different garments, different artwork and a different budget conversation with the people who are paying for their own shirt.
The Photo Shirt
This one exists for a single day. Everyone matches for the group picture, the boat, the brunch or the first night out, and the design says exactly what the trip is. Names, the destination, the date and a line that makes the group laugh all belong here.
Because it is worn once or twice, keep the cost per person low. One shirt color, one print location and a simple design go a long way. Pick a color that flatters everyone in the group and shows up well in outdoor photos, since that is the whole job.
The Shirt They Keep
This one is designed to survive the trip. The reference is quieter, such as a small chest print, a nickname only the group understands or the city and year in a clean typeface. Nobody outside the group needs to know it came from a bachelorette weekend.
Spend a little more on the garment here, because softness is what gets a shirt worn again. Leave off anything a guest would feel awkward wearing to the gym or the grocery store. If people are still wearing it a year later, you chose well.
Plenty of groups do both by giving the bride a version of her own. A different shirt color or a single changed word sets her apart in every photo without a second design. Since there is no minimum, one bride shirt alongside the crew shirts is an easy order.
What We Print for Bachelorette and Bachelor Trips
Matching Crew Tees
Soft unisex t-shirts in one color for the whole group, with a separate version for the bride or groom if you want one.
Tanks and Long Sleeves
Tank tops for beach, lake and desert trips, and long sleeve tees or hoodies for mountain cabins and cold weather weekends.
Hats for the Group
Embroidered caps that keep the sun off during a day outside and are often the piece people still wear long after the trip.

Find Out What Each Person Owes
Set your group size in the studio and the price per shirt appears as you go.
Small Groups Welcome
There is no minimum order. Six shirts for a small weekend away is a normal order here, and the price per piece drops as the group gets bigger.
Every Name Proofed
You see a proof and approve it before anything is printed, so spelling, nicknames, dates and placement are all checked while they can still be fixed.
Know the Cost Up Front
The studio shows the price as you set the quantity, so you can tell the group exactly what each person owes before anyone commits to a shirt.
Help With the Artwork
Have a sketch, a screenshot or a rough idea drawn on a phone. We clean up or redraw rough art so it prints clearly on fabric.
Working Backward From the Departure Date
The wedding date is not your deadline. The trip is, and it often falls a month or two before the wedding. Shirts also have to reach whoever is packing them before that person leaves for the airport. Here is the order of events that keeps an organizer out of trouble.
Settle the wording and color with one or two people, not the whole group chat. A design decided by committee is the most common reason a shirt order starts late.
Send one message with a size chart and a firm reply date. Chase the stragglers early, because a single missing size holds up the whole order.
Read every name on the proof letter by letter, then have a second person do the same. Turnaround of about 14 days starts when you approve it.
Have the box sent to a home address with a few days to spare, not to a hotel or rental. Hand the shirts out at the airport or on arrival.
If the trip is already close, do not guess. Call or send a note with the date and ask, because sometimes an order can be done faster. A simple one-color design with no individual names is the easiest kind to produce, so keep that option in your pocket.
Names, Roles and Printing Custom Bachelorette Shirts
Personalization is where bachelorette shirts get complicated. A shirt that says the same thing on every chest is one design. A shirt with each person's name or role on it is as many designs as there are guests. Both are possible, and the printing method that makes sense is different for each.
When every shirt is identical, screen printing is efficient and gives a soft, durable print, particularly in one or two ink colors. When each shirt carries a different name, direct-to-film is usually the better fit, because each transfer can be unique without a new screen. It also handles full-color artwork such as a drawn portrait of the couple or their dog.
Script fonts are popular for bridesmaid shirts and they need care. Thin connecting strokes and small looping letters can fill in or break up on fabric, especially in light ink on a dark shirt. Choose a script with some weight, keep it large enough to read across a table, and check it closely on the proof.
Think about fabric color in practical terms. White and pale pastel tees are thin enough to show what is underneath, and they show sunscreen, spilled drinks and makeup quickly. Mid tones and darker colors are more forgiving over a long day. If the bride wants white, consider putting her in white and the group in a color.
Keep the wording something everyone is comfortable wearing in an airport or a restaurant. Groups span ages and families, and the shirts that get worn most are the ones nobody has to think twice about. A clever line about the destination or the couple usually lands better than a joke that needs explaining.

Sizing a Group and Splitting the Cost
Sizing is the part organizers dread, and it does not need to be hard. A unisex tee fits straighter and roomier than a fitted women's cut, so people who want a closer fit often go down a size, and people who plan to knot or tuck the shirt are fine in their usual one. Share the size chart instead of asking for a guess.
Bachelor party shirts follow the same rules with fewer opinions. Groups of groomsmen often settle on a dark tee with a chest or back print and finish in one conversation. If both sides of the wedding party are ordering, place the two designs together so the proofs can be reviewed side by side.
On money, get the number before you ask anyone to pay. The studio shows the price per piece for your quantity, and that price drops as the group grows. Tell everyone their share up front and collect it before you approve the proof. Many groups cover the shirt for the bride or groom between them.
Order one or two spares in common sizes if the guest list is still moving. Someone joins late, someone spills at the first dinner, or a size turns out wrong. With no minimum you can also add a single shirt later, though it will run on its own timeline and may miss the trip.
One limit to know about. We do not make robes, sashes, satin pajamas or button-up shirts for the getting-ready photos. We do make t-shirts, long sleeve tees, tank tops, polos, hoodies, hats and beanies, and a matching tee or tank works well for the morning of the wedding too.
Bachelorette Shirt Questions, Answered
How early should I order custom bachelorette shirts?
Count back from the day the first person leaves for the trip, not from the wedding. Standard turnaround for custom bachelorette shirts is about 14 days from proof approval, plus shipping time and however long your group takes to agree on a design. Starting five or six weeks out keeps things calm.
Is there a minimum number of shirts?
No. There is no minimum order, so a group of four is fine and so is a single shirt for the bride. The price per piece drops as quantity goes up, which helps larger groups. Set your number in the studio to see the price for your exact order.
Can each shirt have a different name on it?
Yes. Individual names or roles are common on custom bachelorette shirts, and direct-to-film printing handles them well because each print can be different. Send a typed list instead of a screenshot so spellings carry over exactly, and check every name on the proof before you approve it.
Can the bride have a different shirt from everyone else?
Yes, and it is a popular choice. The usual approach is the same design in a different shirt color, or one changed word. Because there is no minimum, a single bride shirt alongside the group shirts is no problem. Build it as its own item in the studio.
Do you print bachelor party shirts too?
Yes. Bachelor party shirts go through the same process, and the same tees, tanks, hoodies and hats are available. If both halves of the wedding party are ordering, it is easiest to start the two orders at the same time so the proofs can be checked together, even when the designs have nothing in common.
What if someone joins the trip after we order?
You can order one more shirt, since there is no minimum. It is a separate order with its own turnaround of about 14 days from proof approval, so it may not arrive in time. Ordering a spare or two in common sizes with your custom bachelorette shirts is the safer plan.
Which sizes should we order in a unisex tee?
A unisex tee is cut straight through the body, so it fits looser than a fitted women's shirt. Many people who want a closer fit choose one size down, and anyone who wants an oversized look stays true or goes up. Share the size chart with the group and let each person pick.
Can you ship to our hotel or rental house?
We ship across the United States, but a home address is the safer choice. Hotels and rentals can misplace packages, and a box that arrives after checkout is hard to recover. Send the shirts to whoever is organizing, with a few days to spare, and pack them in a carry-on.
