If you’re celebrating a graduate’s achievements this year, it’s time to plan their end-of-year celebration! Check out our 5 perfect graduation party themes.
1. School Spirit
Show a little school pride with a party decked out in the school’s colors, some mascot-inspired décor, and food and drink options from the school’s local scene. Break out the graduation cap-and-gown décor and think up some creative ways to incorporate the graduating year. Put 18 candles on the cake, float 18 balloons in the entryway, or cook up an 18-layer dip to serve guests.
2. In Paradise
Go traditional with your end-of-year bash with a classic paradise theme! Palm linens, tiki glasses, pineapple décor and lawn flamingos will set the scene and kick off the summer for all your guests.
3. Pool Party
If you have access to a pool, tell guests to bring their bathing suit for a good old fashioned pool party. For a seamless party theme, explore some sea-worthy ideas. Create a nautical feel with anchors and ropes, or an under-the-sea look with bubbles and mermaids.
4. The Next Step
If the graduate has some big plans on the horizon, get everyone excited with a specific theme. Is the graduate heading to college? Decorate with their next school’s colors and mascot. Do they plan to travel? Get some maps and globes and collect cards in an open suitcase. Are they entering the job force with their new degree? Nursing, police work, law, and many more professions can all be transformed into a fun party theme.
5. Looking Back
A graduation party is the perfect opportunity to look back on the graduate’s life and all their big accomplishments. Put up school pictures through the years to see how they’ve grown, and remind everyone of their biggest life moments.
