Classic Christmas Matching Pajamas

For a timeless look, opt for button-front pajamas with a traditional pattern like the Candy Cane Stripes Matching Pajamas or a classic pullover pajamas in a nostalgic pattern like our Nordic Fleece Matching Family Pajamas. These styles are perfect for inspiring dreams of holidays past.

Plaid Matching Pajama Sets

Plaid matching pajama sets are a versatile choice that can be dressed up or down. They offer a cozy, rustic vibe that works well for both casual and formal holiday settings. Two of our favorites are Snowfall Plaid matching family pajamas, and Gray Plaid matching family pajamas.

Trendy Holiday Matching Pajamas

If your family prefers a more contemporary look, go for pajamas with modern holiday patterns, such Balsam and Pine family pajamas, or Sweet Comforts family PJs. These styles can add a fresh twist to your holiday card.

Coordinated Holiday Pajamas 

Lastly, you don’t have to match perfectly to celebrate the holidays in style. Coordinating colors and patterns can create a visually appealing effect. Choose a palette or theme that complements each other, such as shades of blue, earthy tones, or plaids in various colors.

Tip 3: Set the Mood with a Creative Setting and Matching Holiday Pajamas

The setting of your unique family photo can enhance the mood and tell a story. Here are some of our favorite backdrop ideas.

Cozy Up At Home

A cozy indoor setting can be the perfect backdrop for your holiday card. Arrange your photo session in a well-decorated living room or by a beautifully adorned tree. Use props like festive blankets, holiday mugs, or a pile of wrapped gifts to add character to the scene. All of this will make your family Christmas PJ set stand out, just like on Christmas morning.

Strike a Pose Outside

If you enjoy outdoor activities, an outdoor setting can make for a magical photo. Think about a leaf filled backyard, a local park with holiday lights, or a picturesque landscape. Just be sure to consider how the natural light will affect your photo and don’t forget slippers or proper shoes to match your matching family pajamas.

Snuggle Close in Bed

For a relaxed and intimate vibe, take the photo in bed. Snuggle up together under a festive blanket, with your matching pajamas taking center stage. This setting works especially well for families who want a laid-back look, one that is inviting.

This holiday season, let your holiday card be more than just a photo—let it be a snapshot of joy, togetherness, and festive cheer.

Matching Christmas & Holiday Pajamas for Every Family

Matching family pajamas are a delightful way to celebrate the season and share a piece of your family with loved ones.
