Weddings should feel like the people getting married.
The best ones are packed with little details that make guests say, “Yep, that is totally them.” Maybe it’s the music. Maybe it’s the food. Maybe it’s the signature drink named after their dog.
Or maybe it’s a set of personalized cornhole boards featuring the groom’s most embarrassing photo from 2009.
We’re big fans of that last one.
Custom cornhole boards can be part of way more than the wedding reception. They can make an appearance at the bachelor party, bachelorette weekend, bridal shower, engagement party, rehearsal dinner, reception, and every backyard BBQ that comes after.
They can be classy. They can be sentimental. They can be ridiculous.
Most importantly, they can be yours.
And you don’t need finished artwork to make it happen. Send us your photos, names, wedding date, colors, logo, invitation, or even a rough idea. Our designers can put everything together and send you a digital proof before anything is printed.
Start the Party Early: Bachelor & Bachelorette Cornhole Boards
This is where things can get interesting.
A bachelor or bachelorette party is the perfect excuse to dig through the photo archives and find something the bride or groom hoped would never see daylight again.
You know the picture.
The questionable haircut. The awkward high school photo. The legendary vacation picture. The hunting camp disaster. The photo from college that has been sitting in the group chat for the last six years.
Put it on a set of custom cornhole boards and you’ve got a game everyone will be talking about all weekend.
Add a nickname or custom saying to make it even better. Go with Team Bride vs. Team Groom, an inside joke only the group understands, or something completely inappropriate enough that Grandma definitely shouldn’t see it at the reception.
Want something a little less wild? Start with one of our pre-made designs and personalize it for the weekend.
Custom designs work especially well for bachelor and bachelorette trips at lake houses, cabins, campgrounds, beach rentals, Airbnbs, and backyard parties. Set the boards up, crack open a few cold ones, and let the tournament begin.
Just remember: what happens at the bachelor party might end up printed on the boards.
Personalized Cornhole Boards for Bridal Showers
Not every set needs an embarrassing photo.
Personalized cornhole boards can also look right at home at a beautiful bridal shower or couples shower.
Use the couple’s names, wedding date, monogram, engagement photos, flowers, wedding colors, or elements inspired by their invitations. The design can be rustic, modern, elegant, funny, colorful, or somewhere in between.
Set them up outside and suddenly you’ve got more than another decoration.
You’ve got something guests can actually do.
That makes them especially fun for backyard bridal showers and couples showers where people are eating, drinking, talking, and moving around instead of sitting at tables the entire afternoon.
They look great in photos, add something personal to the party, and give different groups of guests an easy way to interact.
And yes, a little friendly competition between the bride’s family and groom’s family is highly encouraged.
Bring Them Out for the Engagement Party
There’s something about cornhole and backyard parties that just works.
Fire up the grill. Fill the coolers. Turn on some music. Get friends and family together. Then put a set of personalized boards in the yard featuring the newly engaged couple.
That’s a pretty good Saturday.
An engagement party design could feature a favorite photo, the couple’s last name, the date they got engaged, their wedding date, or artwork based on where they met.
You can also forget the traditional wedding look altogether.
Maybe they’re huge football fans. Maybe they spend every summer at the lake. Maybe hunting season is practically a holiday in their house. Maybe their dog needs to be front and center on everything they own.
That’s the fun of going custom.
The design doesn’t have to look like everybody else’s engagement party. It can look like them.
Make the Rehearsal Dinner More Fun
Rehearsal dinners can sometimes have a lot of downtime.
People arrive at different times. Families are meeting each other. The wedding party is catching up. Everyone is grabbing drinks and waiting for dinner.
Give them something to do.
Cornhole is easy because practically anyone can play. You don’t have to explain a bunch of rules, and nobody needs to change out of their nice clothes to join a game.
For a backyard, barn, brewery, lake house, farm, or outdoor rehearsal dinner, custom cornhole boards fit right into the atmosphere.
This is also a great opportunity for a Bride vs. Groom setup.
Put the bride’s design on one board and the groom’s on the other. Use their favorite teams, hometowns, hobbies, photos, or completely different personalities as inspiration.
Then let the families settle things on the boards before the ceremony.
We’re sure it’ll remain friendly.
Probably.
Custom Cornhole Boards Are Made for Outdoor Wedding Receptions
Now we’re getting to the big day.
Outdoor weddings are awesome because guests aren’t stuck in their seats all night. People are dancing, grabbing drinks, catching up with family, taking pictures, wandering around the venue, and enjoying the evening.
Lawn games fit naturally into that kind of reception.
And when the games are personalized for the couple, they can become part of the wedding décor too.
Wedding cornhole boards can feature the couple’s names and wedding date for a clean, classic look. You could match the wedding colors, incorporate flowers from the invitations, use a custom monogram, or turn a favorite engagement photo into the centerpiece.
Or completely ignore the wedding rulebook.
Put the dogs on them.
Show off the couple’s favorite sports teams.
Create His and Hers designs.
Use the skyline of the city where they met.
Celebrate their lake house, family farm, hunting camp, favorite vacation spot, or hometown.
Add a saying their friends will immediately recognize.
That’s what makes custom cornhole boards so much fun at a wedding. They aren’t just another piece of generic reception décor. They can tell a little piece of the couple’s story.
And when someone sinks four bags in a row after visiting the open bar, they’ll become part of another story too.
Backyard Weddings? Even Better.
You don’t need a huge wedding venue to create an unforgettable reception.
Some of the best weddings happen right in the backyard.
String lights overhead. Music playing. Tables spread across the lawn. A tent nearby. Kids running around. Friends standing by the coolers. Somebody’s uncle taking the cornhole tournament way too seriously.
That’s our kind of wedding.
Personalized wedding cornhole boards are a natural fit for backyard weddings because they add entertainment without making the reception feel overly planned.
Guests can play when they want. Kids can jump into a game. Grandparents can play against grandkids. Friends who haven’t seen each other in years can start a tournament.
It’s simple, relaxed fun.
And that’s usually where some of the best wedding memories happen.
A Unique Wedding Gift They’ll Actually Use
Finding a unique wedding gift idea gets harder every year.
The couple probably already has towels. They have plates. They have glasses. And there’s a decent chance they already own an air fryer.
So give them something nobody else is bringing.
A personalized cornhole set can be a great group gift from the wedding party, siblings, parents, close friends, or anyone who wants to give the couple something a little different.
Create a design around their wedding date, new last name, engagement photos, favorite vacation spot, family cabin, or something only their closest friends would understand.
The best part is that the gift doesn’t stop being useful when the wedding is over.
Those same boards can come out for summer BBQs, football Saturdays, camping trips, lake weekends, family reunions, birthday parties, neighborhood get-togethers, and anniversary parties.
Ten years later, they could still be throwing bags on the same design that was created for their wedding.
That’s a lot more fun than another toaster.
One Design Can Be Part of the Entire Wedding
Here’s an idea we really like.
Don’t think of personalized cornhole boards as something that’s only for the reception.
Make them part of the whole celebration.
Start using them at the engagement party. Bring them back out for the bridal shower. Take them to the rehearsal dinner. Set them up at the wedding reception.
Then take them home.
Every time the couple pulls them out for a backyard party afterward, there’s a little piece of the wedding story attached to them.
That’s something most wedding decorations can’t do.
The flowers are gone. The cake is definitely gone. The rented decorations went back Monday morning.
The cornhole boards?
Those are coming out for the Fourth of July.
Don’t Have Artwork? Good. You Don’t Need It.
This is one of the biggest things people misunderstand about ordering custom designs.
You don’t need to know Photoshop.
You don’t need a graphic designer in the family.
And you definitely don’t need to show up with a perfectly finished design.
Send us what you’ve got.
Upload a funny picture of the groom. Send an engagement photo. Give us the couple’s names and wedding date. Upload the wedding invitation for inspiration. Send a logo, monogram, screenshot, color idea, or even a rough concept.
Our professional design team does the hard part.
We’ll create the layout and send you a digital proof so you can see how everything looks before we print it. Want something moved? Changed? Adjusted?
That’s what the proofing process is for.
Nothing gets printed until the design is approved.
You can also start with one of our pre-made designs if you see something that’s already close to the look you want.
Turn Your Wedding Idea Into Something Awesome
Maybe you’re planning a huge outdoor reception.
Maybe you’ve got 25 people coming to a backyard wedding.
Maybe you’re heading to a lake house for a bachelor weekend and have a photo of the groom that absolutely needs to be 2 feet tall.
We’re here for all of it.
Our premium vinyl wraps are designed for regulation-size cornhole or bag boards and give you the freedom to create something that fits the people you’re celebrating.
Make it romantic.
Make it beautiful.
Make it ridiculous.
Just make it personal.
Because the best wedding details aren’t the ones everybody has seen a hundred times before. They’re the ones that make your friends laugh, get your families playing together, and give people something to remember.
And unlike most wedding decorations, these can keep the party going long after the last dance.
