‘‘Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.“

-Nelson Mandela

With graduation season upon us, we are in search for creative ways to send off the latest group of graduates to college and into the world. A graduation is an exciting celebration and a chance to show the graduate how proud you are of their accomplishments. It’s also a wonderful time to get friends and family together.

These invites are fun and eye catching. It’s a great way to get your guests excited about the event.

Your graduate will appreciate having a guest book at their graduation party. Just like a couple does after their wedding, they will look back on the kind words from family and friends. The two ideas above are fun and make for an interesting conversation starter. The Oh The Places You’ll Go guest book will be one that they will read to their children!

Utilizing school colors is always a great idea. This would be especially great for someone who was on Athletic teams in college or high school and wants to show off their school spirit.

The food is an important part of the event. If it is a high school graduation party, having kid friendly foods and small bites for the guests is a great idea. Check out our board on Pinterest with fun bites and cocktails for more food ideas and options. Whether you are having a seated dinner, stations or passed food, incorporating clever sayings is a fun idea. The ‘keys to success’ phrase would be perfect as an escort card or guest book as seen in the photos above. A photo booth is always fun for young adults. They can make memories while being able to goof off. These graduation themed props are fun and creative. Even if you don’t have a photo booth, these could be fun to have at tables for the younger children to play with!

We wish the class of 2014 the best of luck in their future endeavors!
