Fall Bid Day Ideas Your Sorority Should Follow in 2025
Crisp air, perfect lighting for aesthetic group pics, and cozy vibes all the way. Yup, Fall Recruitment is just around the corner.
Whether you've been planning since last semester or are in full panic mode (no judgment), we've got you covered with five core-memory-worthy Bid Day ideas.
Matching Merch
Let's be real, the first thing on your Bid Day ideas checklist has to be the fits. Nothing says "you belong here" like coordinated looks. Custom tees with your letters front and center are a forever fave, but we’re also seeing comfy sets that bring the whole chapter together.
When everyone's matchy, those Bid Day photos go off. Plus, your new members immediately feel part of something bigger, which is exactly what the day is all about!
Fall-Ready Apparel
You can welcome your new members with the coziest quarter-zips, crewneck sweatshirts, and hoodies that are fall weather-friendly.
Recruitment in cooler weather means you need to think about those temperature drops as the day goes on. Start with cute tanks or tees for the running home excitement, then have cozy crewnecks ready for when the sun sets.
Bid Day Themes That Capture “Fall Vibes”
Bid Day is the perfect opportunity to set the tone for your new members' journey. Lean into themes that reflect the season's vibe.
For a warm and inviting atmosphere, explore our Teddy theme. Our custom designs feature soft textures and autumn-inspired prints, creating a cozy vibe that makes your new members feel at home.
If you're all about outdoor fun, the Camp Vibes Only theme is your go-to. With earthy fall tones and playful graphics, our designs capture the vibe of camping in the fall.
For a bit more energy, the Wild West theme brings rugged charm to your Bid Day. Our bold, rustic graphics reflect the rich colors of fall, adding a sense of adventure and excitement to the day.
Accessories for Bid Day
Accessories are the outfit this season. It’s all about those extra touches that make your new members feel special.
Think customized tote bags filled with necessities for the day. Matching trucker caps for those outdoor activities, and water bottles with your chapter letters (perfect for staying hydrated while running around campus). Watch how excited your new members get about having chapter merch from day one.
Fun Bid Day Activities
This year's top Bid Day ideas include interactive moments that create memories… and cute content. We see a lot of our sorority girlies do bouncy houses bc they're classic. You could also do friendship bracelet stations, and let sisters exchange handmade tokens (bonus points for using your letters and symbols).
Another activity that we’ve been seeing? DIY photo booths. Set up a cute custom backdrop and ask around—chances are one of your sisters has a camera and a handy little printer to bring the whole thing to life.
The best Bid Day ideas create moments that feel special and welcoming. It’s the activities that get everyone bonding, laughing, and making memories together that turn your recruitment into something truly unforgettable.
Don't gatekeep this inspo. Share it with your sisters and make 2025 the year your Bid Day becomes everyone's blueprint!
