Congratulations! The day that you have been waiting for has finally arrived. You graduated! Being a recent graduate myself (2 years is still recent, right?), I remember my graduation. I remember feeling the nervousness about the future, the excitement about the accomplishment, the pride, the presents! Your graduation is a chance to celebrate your present accomplishment, as well as reminisce about your past and how you got to this crossroad in your life!
Of course, with the stress of graduating behind you, and your future in front of you, the only effective way to truly celebrate such a momentous occasion is by having a party! So, without further ado, I present the top 5 graduation party themes!
Make a Splash
It's summer. You just graduated, so you more than likely almost went off the deep end with all the finals, work and stress that the last month of school encompasses. A pool party is the obvious choice for your party. You and all of your friends can bask in the warm summer sun, relaxed and stress free for maybe the first time in awhile. Also, a pool party can have different locations, your backyard, the community pool, the local gym. Let all of your friends know the theme of your party instantly with a pool themed invitation! Or you can have a beach theme party, which can accommodate more people and activities.
Be A Sport
If you are anything like my friends who played sports in school, you will be reliving your past athletic glories over and over and over again. (Or at least my friends do.) If sports are a big part of you and your friend's life's, have a sports themed party! You can go to the batting cages to show off your swing, or a miniature golf course to show off your mini golf skills. There are a lot of country clubs also where you can hold your party as well, and to get in a round of golf before life gets hectic again! A great way invite everyone to a sports party, (and to show off your athleticism to all,) than with photo graduations! You can put pictures of you in your school uniform to show off your school spirit. Also, many of our photo cards have a "then and now" theme, where you can print your little league pictures to show everyone how much you have grown. Photo graduations are also helpful for when you are older, and your grandkids don't believe you were once the athlete you are!
Open House
One of the most popular types of parties to hold is an Open House party. This is a great type of party to have if your graduation party happens to fall on the same day as the rest of your friends (as a lot of graduation parties tend to do). It also a great way to accommodate everyone if there are a lot of people that are invited to your party, but you do not have enough room to accommodate them all at once. With an Open House, people can come and go as they please, so that way you can have a constant flow of new people going in and out of your party, creating new and fun atmospheres for your party! The best part is that pretty much any graduation invitation that you like will work well.
School Spirit
A great way to show off your school spirit is to have a party with the theme of the school that you are going to or graduated from. Have your school colors as the color theme for your party. This party can even have a dress code by wearing the colors of your soon to be school or alma mater. You can also invite your family and friends to the party using specific school themed invitations.
Friends Forever
A great way to include all of your friends and family in your graduation celebration is to co-host a graduation party together. This is a great way to plan a party a little easier, since everyone can have a part to plan. Also, it is a really enjoyable way to reminisce about your school experience. You can invite people to your party with photo invitations, and show everyone what great friends you truly are!
